Ted Bundy |
UTAH— Members of the Davy Crockett Society at Utah Valley State College have started a petition to limit the availability of pornography on the Internet. During an interview with Heraldextra.com, Bobby Udall, the alumnus president of the society, claimed that viewing pornographic images could cause people to act out and become violent. "There's always the potential there for destruction," Udall said. To further support his statement, Udall set up a table in the Liberal Arts Building at the college and played a taped interview in which notorious serial killer Ted Bundy asserted that his problems in life began with his addiction to pornography. In regard to freedom of speech, Udall had this to say: "Freedom of speech is not free in all circumstances."
