It's the same issue over and over. Banning books from libraries for using obscene words (Mark Twain said "nigger" - The bastard should be arrested and charged!), words like ass and bullshit being bleeped out of movies and television programs - it's all ridiculous.
I was watching a movie on TBS about three months ago when one guy points a gun at another ganster type, and says "You're dead mutherfucka" and shoots him in the forehead. Well, they bleep out the "motherfucka" part, but not the shot to the head. You tell me what would be more disturbing.
Swearing bad. Sex VERY bad. Shooting people in the head, um, well, whatever.
Hmm....
