Here's the problem:

The culture itself used to censor it, with shaming and expressions of revulsion.

Once the government has to do it, something has been lost.

I advocate the return of shame in the culture (i.e. young people realize that such animalistic displays hurt them, hurt thier marriages, hurt thier futures and thier health and their future happiness) but I ain't holding my breath.

I think that's what we mainly need, we lost the concept of shame. You're right, you have a slam dunk. Like in my last message, I can see it if the metes and bounds (I work in real estate titles, IT is dead B-)) are specific like "you can't show naked boobs on TV or say the 'seven dirty words'" but when you go further, you can jeopardize free speech to the point where if you yell "The King is a Fink" you'll get tossed into the cell with Mr. Spook (I love the Wizard of Id).

In other (familiar) words: There is no freedom without responsibility.
