I'm sorry mate but as far as I see, America's freedom is seriously under attack. The moral thought-police are systematically 'purifying' your media. I mean, look at the crisis that exploded after Jackson's 'wardrobe malfunction'. The whole country was in paroxysms of fear and angst over a split-second image of a woman's breast. When I heard about that, alarm bells rang. Over here, we get to see that kind of stuff - and lots more - all the time. Doesn't it piss you off that a bunch of moralising morons are dictating what you can and cannot watch on TV?
See #67.
oh, and BTW...I didn't have to pay the government a license fee to see that malfunction.
I still can't get over that fact...that you guys on the othe side of the pond need a license for a TV.
I'm wondering how long it will be before the screaming Socialists over here want to license personal use TVs, radios and computers???
"The whole country was in paroxysms of fear and angst over a split-second image of a woman's breast."
No, we weren't. We were disgusted that a family show turned into an MTV bump-and-grind sex simulation. It just isn't appropriate. Believe it or not, parents not only have sex, we enjoy it, but we don't want it on the TV for our kids. When they're older, they can make their own decisions about the value and quality of the popular culture, but until then, we want network television to remain tame and family-oriented. God knows that people who want to watch sex can do so at almost no cost 24-7 if they want-- it's all over cable TV, the internet, movie rentals, magazines, etc., etc..
But, can we please keep just a small portion of the public square suitable for people of all ages, for families? Thank you for your support.
