OCAF Targets Internet Service Providers in Battle Against 
Internet Pornography

Document to Assist Law Enforcement Is Distributed Nation-Wide

OKLAHOMA CITY, OK:  Bob Anderson, president of Oklahomans 
for Children And Families (OCAF), announced today the 
organization's campaign to eliminate pornography from the 
Internet.  OCAF has identified the local Internet Service 
Provider (ISP) as the party primarily responsible for
the distribution of the majority of illegal pornography on 
the Internet.

According to Bruce Taylor, Chief Legal Counsel for the 
National Law Center for Children and Families, criminal 
liability is clearly appropriate for this intentional 
conduct in distributing illegal obscenity and child 
pornography, just as for any other wholesale or retail 
merchant of illegal pornography.

OCAF has made available a document, entitled "The Agincourt 
Project", which helps law enforcement agencies, and the 
public, understand the Internet and understand the ISP's 
role in the distribution of illegal pornography and child 
pornography.  This 35 page document can be obtained by 
sending a blank email message to "noporn@mailback.com" 
(the document will be sent back to you via autoresponder 
email).
  
In order to obtain the widest possible distribution of the 
document, OCAF has:

   - sent notices to law enforcement agencies
   - sent press releases to local and national media
   - posted similar notices to appropriate Internet 
     newsgroups, forums, and mailing lists
   - sent email notices to religious and child protection 
     agencies

PLEASE, obtain a copy of this document and follow the 
suggestions in the Action Plan.  We need your help.

WE CAN ELIMINATE PORNOGRAPHY FROM THE INTERNET!
