Without the pre-trial adversarial hearing that I mentioned in my previous post, the judge?s instructions are just another prior restraint on Chris? First Amendment rights. For the judge to tell Chris to stop expressing his opinion without the hearing to declare that the materials on the website are probably obscene is just plain un-American.

Using that same logic, any judge could tell the sheriff to arrest any webmaster seizing his content and equipment, revoke his bond if he is given one, and place him in jail pending his trial without ever determining that there is an inference of obscenity just because he doesn?t like you, your website or you said something politically unpopular to the Administration.

That, to me, is the story.

Even if you can only donate $7.00, the price of a six-pack, your contribution will help stop the setting of a precedent that is surely being watched by the evil forces of censorship and oppression (DOJ and Christo-Naziis).
