Dear Friend,
I have no doubt that they know of this group. Ted was advertising it
simply to twist a few troll toes. He appears to have been quite
successful in that.
Irrespective of Ted's intent here, I intend to continue to make timely
contributions to this group. I believe we have clearly stated our
philosophy regarding Boylove and the types of materials that are to be
posted here.
If the Internet Watch Foundation wishes to pressure any given news
service provider to cancel this group for perfectly legal,
naturist-type youth nudity, then that shall be their decision and that
of the news service providers. So be it. As I'm sure you know, this
little corner shop now occupied by the Galleries is not the only
edifice along the lane for lease.
Sincerely,
Victor
God Save Her Majesty the Queen.
God Preserve the Prince of Wales.
Rule Britannia!
