Report Pornography
- Misusing USPS Mail
Report receiving unsolicited sexually oriented advertising to the US Postal Service as mail fraud. - When you find pornography in a place of business, tell the manager or owner that you object to its presence, because it can have a harmful effect on young and old alike (cite some examples). Tell him or her that until it is removed, you cannot trade there. Get others to do the same. It does make a difference!
- Parents Television Council: Help us Put an End to Broadcast Indecency! The Parents Television Council was founded in 1995 to ensure that children are not constantly assaulted by sex, violence and profanity on television and in other media. It is a violation of Federal law to broadcast obscene or indecent programming. Obscene speech is not protected by the First Amendment and cannot be broadcast at any time. Check these sites for action on these issues.
