Chapter 9 #2

I believe that in certain situations it is necessary for there to be limitations on what people access on the internet. This is a difficult thing to say because I believe that it is absolutely necessary for us to maintain our rights as Americans. But, in instances such as those in public schools in which children have access to computers regularly, it is necessary to keep them shielded from knowledge they are not ready to see. So, the limitations that administrators currently set on those computers that children can access is good enough. Also, in instances of terrorism we should be able to monitor people. If the well-being of people is endangered, then I believe that constitutional rights can be overlooked.
