The first time I saw a guy get mugged at school, I just turned my head. Worked like a charm. Suddenly, it wasn't happening.

Bad analogy.

If everyone turned the channel then nobody would be watching and this sort of programming would simply disappear. I don't think that is a good strategy for muggings. My turning the channel is simply my application of a boycott against Hollywood using vulgar language for it's shock value. That worked once or twice and it is now just boring and embarrasing.

There are plenty of minors watching TV that aren't mature enough to turn off the TV. But I'll compromise. We'll allow parents to sue producers who expose their kids to filth and porn. I think that will work.
