Comité Editorial FrenchParents: Anne-Caroline Isautier- Rougeot - 18/08/03

Elizabeth,

I understand you so well. The level of filth these messages convey ( child scenes, virgins getting raped, animals involved, etc..) is absolutely intolerable- and moroever, just like most pronographic material, it is against the law...

- QUick response to your question:
This site is where you can report Internet porn:

http://www.missingkids.com/missingkids/servlet/PageServlet?LanguageCountry=en_US&PageId=169

It's a little tricky because if reporting spam (email messages), you have to include all the HEADERS so they can track down where the message came from. You have to tell your email program to show all the headers to messages in this case before you can see them...

- One California-based organization is listed on the below-mentioned PBS web site among many others:

Enough is Enough :
-----------------
Enough is Enough is a California-based group that campaigns against Internet pornography. The site provides a range of information
on the effects of pornography, including a 20-page report entitled "Just Harmless Fun?" that outlines the harmful results of pornography from a social science perspective. The site also provides tips for parents on how to keep porn away from their children,
alternative websites for children, and a resource list of articles on pornography.

PBS did a great story on American Porn and alot of resources are available on the web site below, including:

- A very interesting interview of a US federal prosecutor for many years, Mr Taylor, conducted for a PBS show: Frontline, on the American porn industry:

http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/shows/porn/interviews/taylor.html

- Links to Anti Porn organizations:

http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/shows/porn/etc/links.html

- In the interview Taylor describes the hundreds of cases he led and won against the porn industry under administrations that wished to pursue it vigourously, the Reagan and first Bush eras.

Some excerpts are below:

‘ The Supreme Court has always said, "Obscene material and child pornography are not
protected by the First Amendment (i.e: freedom of expression)"

‘ When I started doing prosecutions in 1973 and 1974, I started doing trials by the dozens. The kind of material we did in so-called adult bookstores, the hardcore shops in Cleveland, was pretty much the same material that you have today in adult bookstores or theaters or in
videocassettes in the XXX section of a video store. It's penetration clearly visible, group activity.

We didn't see as much of the more extreme stuff [then] -- the bondage, the torture, the excretory material. You could get that, but it was underground; you had to know somebody, you had to talk to clerks, they had to know you were a real perv and all that.

Nowadays the difference is that all of the extreme material is available on the Internet, so if you go to some of these sites, they'll have group sex, they'll have adults of same sex, different sex, and then they have an animal picture and a urination picture and a torture picture all on the same site. ... ‘

‘And in a sense, that's why the Justice Department prosecuted maybe the 25 biggest
producers, and maybe two dozen of the biggest distributors of pornography. A lot of those people who were indicted and convicted or pled guilty to felony charged in the early 1990s are still the same people running the porn industry today and supplying the cable companies and the Hot Network. There's not many of them. They run the whole industry under one guy, but it's under a table maybe seating 40, 50 men. And they run it today just like Sturman had them run it 20 years ago.’

I think the biggest message that was sent is, "This is a crime, and we can get to you. The
federal grand juries will indict you, and the FBI and postal inspectors will do the
investigations. They will do searches with judges' authorizations, take your records and make you pay your taxes, and they'll make you go to jail. So that put the fear of the law back into the industry until maybe 1994-1995, when the prosecutions pretty much stopped. ... ‘

The Clinton administration apprently stopped the fight against porn...What do you know..?

And:

‘This arrogance of the industry, ... one, it shows that it's still the same industry. These are a
bunch of pimps who make hardcore porn films by hiring people, turning them into prostitutes, and then distributing illegal obscenity. ... ‘

‘All of our jurors are going to have felt the effects of pornography. I still believe that
pornography has a bad effect on society and on families, and it's not a good thing for guys to
look at. It's like the training manual for how guys get to be chauvinist jerks. I mean, you don't
treat a woman well if you treat her like she's treated in a porn movie. It's not the kind of thing
you want your boy to be looking at or that the guy who comes to date your daughter is
looking at. You don't want your husband looking at it. You don't want your boyfriend looking
at it. You don't really want your wife looking at it. ...

We may tolerate a lot more sex and nudity and simulated material on cable or in magazines --
in its place. I don't think the American public is willing to tolerate explicit hardcore
prostitution pornography on school networks and in libraries and on movie theater screens and
on network television. I still think the law has been drawn a long time ago: hardcore
penetration clearly visible is still on the other side of the obscenity line, and I don't think that
the juries are going to disagree with us. It may be a bloodier fight, but I still think that
hardcore porn is going to stay illegal.’

On talking to his successor:

‘When it was my turn ... I wanted him to know that this is something that has been done in the past -- we made money on it, we didn't cost the taxpayers money. The pornography industry had to pay more in fines than it cost the criminal justice system to prosecute them, and it wasn't just animals, bondage, and children that we prosecuted.

So I wanted to remind him that it was all obscenity, against all of the people, and it was successful. I said to him, "If you do this again, you should include both the federal agencies -- not just the FBI, but the postal inspection service and customers agents, as well as big city
police departments, like LAPD in Houston and Chicago and Cleveland and Dallas, wherever."
All of the major police departments have a lot of information. So that idea that it's a cooperative effort between the federal and the state prosecutors, it's all of the products, and it's kingpins first is the message I wanted to let him know should still be the way that he could be successful if they were going to try it again.'

Get to work!
