Aside from this, Kid Rock music should not be sold to young people - due to lewd lyrics. I think we are throwing the kids in our country to the trash heap by allowing such garbage in the open air - in the name of free speech. If yelling "fire" in a crowded theatre is wrong, then this should be too because it leads to more teen pregnancies and abortion.

That's ridiculous. Haven't you ever heard of personal responsibility? How about parents taking control of and monitoring THEMSELVES what it is their children view and/or listen to? What kind of values they learn?

That is what conservatism is supposed to be about, I thought. Not you or anyone else telling me what my children can and cannot learn, listen to, or watch.

Exactly - which is what is happening in this case. There were complaints and the complaints were listened to. Sorry you disagree with parents having a say in what is appropriate.

Or, are you saying they must exercise that control only in their own homes - not on federal property. Hmm......sounds almost like the ACLU efforts against religion.
