Censorship has to do with legal ______ (insert expressions, dramatizations, depictions, words, etc.) which some but not others may view as offensive. Kiddie porn, snuff films, etc. are illegal. They should not be in existance to begin with. Which part of this don't you understand? Your analogy is completely incorrect.

You are making no sense here. If something's legal, it's not being censored. To censor something (at least when we're talking about government censorship) is to make it illegal.

So your position is that it's OK to censor something, as long we censor it, but if we don't censor it, we can't censor it.

Which part of this don't you understand?

Everything you're saying is totally incomprehensible, I'm afraid.

I agree. I also think that shows like "Queer Eye for the Straight Guy" shouldn't exist to begin with, but you'd call that censorship.
