"The 'public' airwaves eh? Do you also support 'public' ownership of newspapers too? I'm almost afraid to hear the answer. By the way, public is just a pretty word for government and politicians."Do you libertarians, anything-goes type have problems with porno run on the Cartoon Network? Or graphic front page pictures of fornication ok with you?
Cut the bull-sh*t -- our government has ALWAYS enforced "decency" standards through censorship and obscenity laws. The excremement has FINALLY hit the fan and a line was drawn -- too effin bad. You can always get your kicks and "free speech" though the internet.

After reading your posts, I have decided that I would be in favor of the government censoring hyperbole.
Its for the children...

You know what? I don't think the Cartoon Network would show porn because the market wouldn't support it. The very first time they tried their sponsor money would dry up and the network would cease to exist. Same with the "graphic front page pictures of fornication."
I don't think the government would even have to get involved.
