Re: Censorship on TV
[ QUOTE ]
be that as it may, i believe it's a parents responsibility here, censorship is pretty lame. TV is just one of a million things kids can/will do and i don't think it's practicle for me to decide which are appropriate within the private home. [/ QUOTE ] I have no problem with swear words being on TV if not for my little sisters. If I didn't have them, I would be all for "f#ck" on TV. Kinda weird.. FWIW, I'm all for 0 censorship in books/press. |

Re: Censorship on TV
which leads to the question of what makes TV different then press/books.
Personally i don't think there is any difference other than the average parent's willingness to expend energy is raising their kids. I know it's unrealistic to ask parents to watch over everything their kid does, but this is really well within peoples ability to control. That we don't i think tells us exactly how important we, as a society, think prevent kids from hearing curse words is. |

Censor TV, but now print or speech. A wise man named Mr. Miyagi once said, "Walk on left side of road, okay. Walk on right side of road, okay. Walk down middle--squish." You're either pro-censorship or anti. Somewhere in the middle is a bad place to be. |

[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] my parents often don't supervise my little sisters TV. [/ QUOTE ] Well then, the obvious solution is to make sure that the TV supervises their children for them. [/ QUOTE ] doesn't this require some kind of special TV service/ [/ QUOTE ] You, uh, you totally missed the sarcasm on that one. |

[img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] Yeah, ... ummm... I combined "Tw@t" & "C#nt"... because they're the same thing. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] Yeah, yeah... "Sh1t" & "T#rd" are too... but... umm... is "T#rd" even a bad word at all? And for that matter... "P1ss"?? "T1ts"?!? Come ON!! And... "F@rt"? Every 5 year old knows that word, so it can't be that bad. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] |
