Should some information be censored?


            Through the internet, the television, the newspapers and the radio people are constantly being surrounded with information of every kind, from what happens in the world to what the new computer can do. Most of the information given out is inoffensive, helpful or irrelevant, but sometimes it can involve insulting opinions, discriminating points of view or dangerous content Currently the internet is one of the fastest growing communities in the world, and every kind of person can use it to expand, promote or encourage products, opinions or other things this is what makes "surfing the web" a risk. .
             Although many people use the internet to inform public about specific subjects, some others use it to take their points of view and opinions about certain things like religion or race to other people. Some of this organizations have a negative and even aggressive way to expose what they think, and their target is to recruit members. This actions wouldn't be so bad if they just expressed an opinion but what some they do is denigrate a certain race or religion.
             Some people think that everybody has the right to express themselves and they should be allowed to, no matter what the subject is, or who it involves. Others believe that the content of such things as the internet should be controlled if it is insulting or discriminating.
             Even though there should always be freedom of expression, some views ought to be censored. Not only because their content may possibly offend numerous people, but because sometimes their ideas lead to actions, and this actions might be dangerous. A clear example of this is how Benjamin Smith took the life of several people, being follower of Matt Hale, the founder of the World Church of the Creator , a Neo-Nazi group. Many of websites promote this kind of behavior, and are aimed mostly at kids, using "games" to lure them. The kind of material that they really expose in this web sites is information about weapons, for instance how to make bombs.
