thoughtcrime

Hello, and thanks for reading the first blog entry at childproofworld.org.

I've been wanting to get this site up and running for a long time, but have been busy with other things. It took this article to truly inspire me:

The state of Maine has now criminalized the act of looking at children. This is prior restraint at best, and thoughtcrime at the worst; it means the police can target anyone who comes anywhere within sight of a child.

I don't want to live in a police state, and I hope you don't either.
