Censorship and your opinions on it

[(Fallen)]

/poll title
I think 1. Music and speech shouldn't be censored at all. There is a reason it is there and taking out bad words mutilates the song

the only time censorship should be allowed is when it is done by the viewer, not forced by a part of the government.

Just saying.

Censorship
bad

[Pulchritude]

I don't think certain words should be taboo. A word is a loving word. Perhaps if it's derogatory to a group of people in some way, like the "N-word," then people shoud be discouraged from using it, though useful nouns and verbs shouldn't be censored.

[ArchAngel]

Their will always be Censorship of things, like people trying to censor wiki leaks.

[brickybob]

On second thought, I think it should be a 2.  Because let's say you're flipping through channels with your parents and suddenly there's research.

I don't think certain ***** should be ******. A word is a ******* word. Perhaps if it's derogatory to a group of people in some way, like *** "*****," then people shoud be discouraged from ****** it, though **** nouns and verbs shouldn't be censored.

A "cuss" word is an expression and it shouldn't be called bad.

1. The only reason censorship exists is because people are trying to protect children, which is actually just sheltering them from the real world. If all children experienced the real world at young ages it would prepare them for when they actually are fully part of the real world.

unless it's overly used
someone was talking to me about this stuff.. "cuss" words are bursts of extreme emotion and if you always have bursts of extreme emotion it's not extreme anymore. i am not quite sure how that led to making it seem bad but ok.

censorship is handy for when your overprotective parents walk in the room your watching tv on
