You and the group are demanding that this episode never be shown again, that is censorship.

No, that's not censorship. That's free speech. We don't have the legal authority to keep the episode off the air.

The producers made the decision to not show the episode, and they have the legal authority to do so. That's censorship, specifically, self-censorship. If you want the episode to be shown, you have to complain to them, not to us since we didn't censor it, and maybe they'll make the decision to show it. It is fully their decision, legally and otherwise.

No, you don't want something to be shown, because you were offended.

Tough luck, its a tough world out there, there is all kinds of speech you don't like. But banning it?

LAME

The producers didn't make the decision, Comedy Central did.

So, now all kinds of people will want to see it, which is why it is on every torrent server and being downloaded everywhere.
