Re: sexist content in the package openclipart2-png



Peter,

You shouldn't be confused: there will always be people of limited intelligence and understanding who will find offence in any statement, picture, opinion or attitude that does not conform to their severely restricted mind-set.

There is nothing to be found on the internet that transcends the barbarity of certain groups that rape , murder, mutilate and gloat over their actions, and post their obscene videos to the world, to compare with the images that are  complained about here.

Perhaps certain people need a reality check, and  professional reorientation help to rejoin the real world.

Wishing you a happy new year, but doubting it will be, given the human obstacles to progress,

Saki

I looked at the first 100 and found nothing meriting censorship. Ric
