It is hard to determine where to draw the line when it comes to censorship but I do not favor such a strong remedy to infirmities that can be handled by lesser forms of content control, viewer judgment and just plain old common sense.
If someone says some word that is offensive, I have the ability to remove myself from their presence and future meetings. Should I have the ability to prohibit their speech?, I think not. At least I am able to know what they think and avoid them or warn others. If a group went by the name NAZI and we censored the word, how would you warn people about them or refer to them.The funny thing about one of the most terrible trends the world had ever seen was that the NAZI’s were telling everyone what they were gonna do, what the believed in and why from the start, much like the New World Order-ian power elites of today, and no one did anything about it, till the machine had gained incredible inertia. On top of this example of global ignorance would you really give some entity the power of CENSORSHIP, for anything but the most universally offensive topics and isn’t there always a controlling factor in a subdivision that can regulate it short of real censorship.
In regards to the growth of prejudicial language, it exists and therefore will be repeated whether with malice or not. Films and music have sought to sensationalize certain terms to add to the alleged “Value” of their “ART”, but I would not prohibit the use of profanity in music as a method of stopping obscenity. This comes from the land of such sensational favorites as “Global Warming” and “Man-Bear-Pig” Yes I believe it was Al Gore’s wife who headed the PMRC and took on such Rock Moguls as Dee Snyder and Frank Zappa, trying to banner free speech in music, touting the recent Ice T release Cop Killer as the Devils own hand. Mr. Gore was given a chance to challenge media censorship when they STOLE the vote from him with fraudulent voting machines and counting practices, but he chose not to utter a word. What resolve. Perhaps a man who has an election stolen from him and says nothing has no business running this county, we should be thankful., but I digress.
I am thankful to see bad words in the mouths of children, that way I can see who the bad parents are. I am thankful the power elite and rich corporate power barons and federal reserve chairmen just say out ion the open how they are going to fleece America, that way I know how corrupt and retarded we have really become as a people. Movies, books, television and music along with the news all contribute to the growth of prejudicial language if only by allowing distribution of material that contains them. If censorship is the only way to control the negatives of such language and its influences than mabey our society DOES need firm censorship and possibly mass-sterilization…but I will be patient.
