Are you for it or against it?

I like some censorship. Have you ever watched Bad Santa on cable? Freakin' hilarious. Almost every other word is bleeped! hahahaha.
I'm tired of logical debates atm, but I felt I'd add this.
edit: hahaha, I'm one of five that voted for supporting censorship. Hilarious!

Flaws on censorship:
On porn: they are already doing it, plus we already know what the nether regions looks like, so what's the point of hiding them?
On people on news: It's easy to find out who they are. even with pixelized faces, you can practically determine what they look like.
On literature/movies/everything where they cut out parts that are "too mature": it wrecks the balance of the story and the audience will feel like they're missing something.
Censorship should never exist.

All children grow up one day, swearing and nudity are a part of RL, you can sensor it on TV, the radio, ect., but what happens when your at a baseball game with your son and the guy next to you curses and your son hears it? Punch him in the face and get charges pressed against you? Try to talk to him about how he should talk? What if girls start flashing people while riding in cars? I've seen it before and it happens. Things that happen on TV, the radio, ect. can also happen in RL so, I would have to agree what with this person said.
nothings wrong with taking responsibility.

I think that without censorship people will have to take responsibility instead of blaming it on TV,movies,games and ect.nothings wrong with taking responsibility.

Censorship is a natural thing, since there will always be information we do not want others to know. The obvious case, which has been discussed in this thread by several people, is blurring pictures or censoring what you can say. But think about if the information on how to make plastic explosives, or how to "grow" a bio-weapon. These cases are also instances of censorship, which most people agree is VERY neccesary.
The cases discussed in this thread is mostly a matter or moral.

I think Censorship plays no role in helping anything, To me its pointless. I see no point in it.Parents would rather blind there kids from the truth, and for what???..."they have the discovery channel and Animal Planet, So they are going to learn about sex anyway!!"
I mean sure kids should not watch Porn (like anal, Bj, and fetish crap). But Whats wrong with a Movie Flashing some Boobs, Because last time a checked all mammals have them...And I'm pretty sure they have already seen there moms at some point in there life?
As For the Curse words and things i don't think they should be censored on TV. Its pointless! If anybody goes outside there is a 80% chance that your going to run into someone spurting out curse words...So if your not going to hear it on TV your just going to hear it in real life!
Soooo, i think Censorship is pointless...
Actually, censorship does do something. Censorship gives kids the mentality that something is bad, giving kids the basis of morals. Sure, it's similar to brainwashing, but I personally prefer is fine until kids are older.
Pussy and tits are not bad in fact they are the greatest thing ever.

I hate the idea of Censorship! Coz isn't the reason you're watching porn is to see privates "AS RAW AS THEY COME"? & you wouldn't let an 8-yrs-old watch porn anyway, so I don't see the point!
If it comes to cartoons like Family Guy, they always find ways to discreetly insert their pornish material! So in short, IT'S MEANINGLESS TO CENSOR ANYTHING!

Censorship is about power and control. It exists when one group wishes to limit what another group has access to. It benefits anyone in power, and screws the ones who aren't.

I often feel that censorship does little protecting of anything. I've noticed it producing more naivety than anything. Also when you tell an adolescent no, they want to try it or find out what it was. As counter productive goes, censorship I find at the top of my list.

Porns should not be censored! It is irritating for some reason but it somehow helps to prevent children from being exposed to adult material. Honestly, even if they did see a bold picture with some censored parts on it they would still be tempted by it. Even a 5 year old kid already knows about this kind of things nowadays.

“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.”

According to the first amendment we are protected from the government from censorship yet the FCC is still commissioning what we listen to and watch on t.v.
I am all for anti-censorship but lets face it. The government has enough problems with the economy and a war to worry about that.

I hate how stuff is censored in general and if you want the full story you have to go prowl the very depths of the internet to find the original story...just show us everything, honestly.
Love how some country is having a revolution with people going against the government and yet the CNN's big story is something stupid and not even worth putting on the news.

Censorship has really no use anymore... You'd still think it's porn even if it's censored, and it really wouldn't help that much.

The funniest shit is when they bleep words in a porno movie. "oh yeah! jam your *bleep* in my *bleep*!", while showing an unccensored close up of anal penetration.

funny thing is i DONT like the censorship in JAVS or H release...BUT....for instance, I enjoyed watching Hoshino Akira's AV releases and she was always censored abiding by the Japanese restrictions. However, later on I don't know if you guys ever saw she had an uncensored Tora Tora platinum release. At first this "seemed" exciting. But after I saw it I sort of lost interest in her as an av idol all together and never watched any more of her. In my case at least, it makes me conclude that the Japanese censorship seems almost like a psychological sales tactic...like we get to see ALMOST everything....but not quite. Perhaps wanting us to have MORE AND MORE!! haha i dunno....just a thought. :)

i did not bother to read any of the comments seeing as how only 6 percent
including myself voted that censorship should exist.
although it is considered squandering another's talent and art with censorship
you have to be reasonable. Would you want your kids exposed to that kind of thing?
i think censorship is too extreme right now but it shouldn't be gone altogether, just what does deserve to be censored to be censored and what doesn't vice versa.

I think we are talking about two different things : censorship of a sexual/pornographic media (whatever it is, real porn or hentai) and censorship in general, which is annihilation of freedom of speech and expression (and which is condamned by approx. ALL constitutions in the world).
About the general type of censorship : I think we all agree that it is the first step, and the most important element, of democracy. It is what guarantee our rights as human beings, and as citizens of a country. Of course, as soon as this freedom of speech is prohibited, or even limited by censorship, I consider a country not to be a democracy. ( And I think that today, no country has the right to call itself a "perfect democracy" or "real democracy". Including France, US, UK and so on, for they like to sermon others about it...).
About the sexual/porn type of censorship : this is I think much more complicated. First because a government has to respect, more or less, the freedom of expression blah blah, but on the other hand, it has to take in account what the "morals" and "values" of the people are. This is why it depends from a country to another, even from a state to another, I guess.
As for me, I am afraid this phenomenon is not going down, seeing how parents are slowly discharging themselves of the education of their kids...I'm not trying to offense anyone, but it is a social fact, in general : government in terms of education are more and more involved in this matter, and therefore, they have the will and power to control.
I am not for censorship, at all, and I think we have the right to know what's good for us and our (future) children and what's not. But that's dreaming.
