No, I live in the America where the rule of law is just that, not just when you agree with it.
You can’t take someone’s copyrighted creation and alter it and sell it, because you don’t own it. What if someone tried to sell your car or home and took all the money?
Its about rights and its about ownership. There are several directors who specifically do not allow their works to be cut or altered in any way, its their rights. America is about rights, its about ownership. If you don’t feel that way, then you really have some issues with the concept of freedom. Remember....people don’t censor things they agree with....
You continue to prove your misunderstanding of the concepts of ownership and censorship.
So change the law! Copyright is about promoting the arts. Altered versions mean more art not less, provided the owner is paid and the alteration is clear.
You cant take someones copyrighted creation and alter it and sell it, because you dont own it. What if someone tried to sell your car or home and took all the money?
A faulty analogy. They are taking a COPY of your home or car and altering it, after you have been paid and the change noted!

Censorship would be burning the originals. The original is still out there for whoever wants to see it. In fact putting out clean versions will increase market demand and put extra money in the pocket of its maker. More people will actually end up seeing the original version because of the interest the altered version will generate. It's a win win situation even if the offended liberal can't understand why.
