God forbid they do anything which even begins to give people an understanding of how deep the doo-doo was on that beach.

God forbid they do anything to present the military in a good, just, and honorable light.

Fifty plus senseless murders a night on my TV, and they are worried about violence?

I'll grant the opening scenes are brutal, but that is closer to reality than "beeyoww" (richochet sound) and the bloodless collapse of the victim.

SHow it late, with ample warning of graphic violence.

If 'Queer Eye for the Straight Guy' can be on, then why not Saving Private Ryan?

Private cable stations are different than the public airwaves.

Apples and oranges.

They don't understand the difference between gratuitous violence and reenactment of history.

I know it's been said before but: They just don't get it!
