Motion to Endorse Blue Ribbon Campaign
| 
Nov 18 20:40 UTC 1998 |
I move that Grex place a blue ribbon and a statement endorsing
the Blue Ribbon Campaign for Online Freedom of Expression on its web
page until the fate of the recently-enacted Federal statute which
prohibits the display of material 'harmful to minors' in certain
circumstances is decided by the Federal courts.
This motion is made under Article V of the Grex bylaws.

I'd suggest wording like:
I move that Grex place and endorsement of the Blue Ribbon
Campaign for Online Freedom of Expression on its web page. This
endorsement should stay in place at least until the fate of the
recently-enacted Federal statute which prohibits the display of
material 'harmful to minors' in certain circumstances is decided
by the Federal courts, but may be left up longer at the discretion
of Grex's webmasters.
Basically, it's vaguer about the exact form that the endorsement should
take, and it only sets a minimum on how long the thing can stay up, not
a maximum.

While we're at it, what other political issues does Grex as an organization
want to take a stand on? Whatever happened to having a system where we could
have open discussions with lots of different points of view?
This is a nice concept, but rather misguided.

This is an open discussion and there are lots of different points of view.
Your's, for example.
