Work Internet Filter

So I died a little inside today.  Aug 5-7 is national Pro-Life t-shirt weekend so I was on different Pro-Life websites today looking for a new t-shirt to get.  Apparently Pro-Life websites have a tag on them similar to Facebook being called "social networking" or eBay being "internet auctions".  When I clicked on a website to go to, it came up as blocked because the category is "pro-life".  I don't know whether to cry or yell at someone.  I understand facebook and ebay and whatnot being blocked.  But anything with the category of Pro-Life.

Are Pro-Choice websites blocked? If not I would definitely inquire as to why Pro-Life sites are blocked, when Pro-Choice sites aren't. That would be a huge problem for me if my Company was not being equal.

Good suggestion.  I just checked.  Pro-Choice is blocked too.  Good.

I think that companies have to be consistent on this.  Other sites have equal rights whether we agree with them or not.
