Why do we have an FCC? I don't necessarily see the government as the enemy in all situations.

I have been reading over all of your replies on this thread. There is a time and a place for government this just isn't one of them.

One other thing. When I told my children that a certain show was not on their schedule they didn't watch it period whether I was in the shower or not. As for what they watched at their friends houses, I knew all of their friends' parents. Their parents shared the same values we did, or they wouldn't have been my children's friends for very long. I felt comfortable that my children would not be watching anything at their friends' houses that they wouldn't be allowed to watch at home.

For the same reason we have a BATF -- government has gotten too big for its britches.
