Actually, our filter was tested by a professional hacker who could not get it to budge, which is K-9. As for the rest of the post, I don't have anybody on my list that could send me that in an email, and if someone were to post that on here, would they not immediately be removed?

They don't have to be on your list. That is why it's called spam.
When I say fool proof most filters use a black list or a white list and it's impossible to have every new site on them. Im not talking about hacking into something
The Admins are not here all the time and nor do they see every post. So we would not be able to remove something until we know about it...which often means someone like yourself has to view it then report it.

Actually, there are people who live there by Hollywood, and the majority of stuff on TV comes from there! He says you can feel a spirit there. Let me ask you guys something... Would you let an adulterer or homosexual into your home and teach your kids?

I've actually never been spammed. Don't know if it's because of my filter or my email, but I have never been... yet!

You're young then. When I was a child, there was no internet, and I'm not that old.

The anti-TV crusaders love to tell us how they can use their computer mouse to be selective about to view on the internet...
...but they act as if saints who have a TV cant use their remote to be selective about what to view on the TV screen.
So in effect, computer users can be trusted to exercise judgment and self-control, but TV watchers cant (?!)

Do you, or maybe your kids watch Disney?

It all depends on how you use it! And with the radio thing, there is a big difference in listening to a naked lady sing, and watching a naked lady sing! Thats just an example by the way!

So are you saying that all you watch TV for, is for those things that you just mentioned? Do YOU have a commercial where you promote business? No sir, you watch it for entertainment! Just like anybody who has a TV, and if I had a TV, it would be for that purpose too!!
