Amature Action BBS

Another significant part of Mr. Henson's later civil rights work involved the eye-witness court reporting on a BBS's lawful dissemination of pornography as a matter of freedom of speech as the BBS was on trial for same dissemination.

The "Amature Action BBS" (AABBS) in the year 1994 had been raided and indicted for sharing out pornography when in fact such activities were lawful within the State of which AABBS operated. A single Christian extremist in Memphis advanced the notion that AABBS violated the laws of Tennessee and that because AABBS could be accessed through the phone line, some how laws were being broken, opening up a fiasco that cost tax payers considerable money and ended in the AABBS's operators being found not guilty of having broken any laws.

Much of Mr. Henson's real-time reporting of the on-going trial against AABBS was posted to the FidoNet and to segments of the Internet that were still utilizing Usenet protocols, and Usenet Posting 1

Usenet Posting 2

Usenet Posting 3

Unfortunately a lot of the history of Mr. Henson's court reporting on this highly important civil rights trial has been lost. It would be nice if anyone who has records of Mr. Henson's outstanding work in the AABBS case would scan it in and get it saved and referenced here. NotSoOldHippy (talk) 06:30, 16 October 2010 (UTC)
