Surf,

The fact that Stern broadcasts on the public airwaves changes everything.

Thanks for you concern,
James

Actually, I'm a little curious as to how it changes everything. If I'm standing on a street corner, can I be fined or arrested for saying "anal sex" beause it's a public place?

Possibly. It's not quite the same as Howard Stern, but you probably couldn't run up to the nearest 7 year old and begin a 10 minute curse-a-thon.

Of course you can, why the hell not? This is America and you have the right to say whatever the [censored] you want to. Censorship is wrong, ethically and legally so. If the prudes at FCC dont want to hear the words 'anal sex' then they dont have to listen to howard stern. Why should they decide whats decent and what is not? They aren't even elected!! [censored] the FCC and anyone who supports it!

Anal sex
Anal sex
Anal sex

OMG my ears are bleeding!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ever hear of slander, weatherboy? Whether you like it or not, you cannot say whatever you want. Grow up.

dude, slander is a far cry from indecency. Obviously you cant say ANYTHING you want, there are a few cases where freedom of speech is not allowed (slander, clear and present danger etc.)

It does not take away from the fact that censorship is ridiculous.

Hows this, in America you should be ableto say anything you want. The man wont let you and will throw you in jail or sue your ass if you actually are dumb enough to try it. This makes everyone afraid and then no one exersices their god given right to free speach.

I used to listen to the radio
And I don’t guess they’re listenin’ to me no more
They talk too much but that’s okay
I don’t understand a single word they say
Piss and moan about the immigrants
But don’t say nothin’ about the president
A democracy don’t work that way
I can say anything I wanna say

So [censored] the FCC
[censored] the FBI
[censored] the CIA
Livin’ in the motherfuckin’ USA

People tell me that I’m paranoid
And I admit I’m gettin’ pretty nervous, boy
It just gets tougher everyday
To sit around and watch it while it slips away
Been called a traitor and a patriot
Call me anything you want to but
Just don’t forget your history
Dirty Lenny died so we could all be free
