YOUR Views on Censorship

Some of MsScarlet's favorite sayings
Censorship is more depraving and corrupting then anything pornography could ever produce.
Free speech means the right to shout 'theatre' in a crowded fire.
"Politically correct" is just another form of censorship.

For example...do you know how Clinton balanced the budget? Very simple, just by selling weapons to foreign country, country which later will have to fight because they posses weapons.

Another one, you really have to dig into the news to see how southeast Asia is getting intentionally burned by the governments to get more agricultural and farming area, not realizing its long term consequences for the whole population of the Earth.

The Ozone layer continues to be weaker month after month and everybody tells you not to worry. Of course, you walk on the street of northeastern US with just a shirt in the middle of December and the Earth is not really warming up. It does not matter, it is ok, your children will face it. What a present you are going to give them! -- tommyrollins@altavista.net

Living in Mississippi, I try not to let all the stereotypes affect you, I have been exposed to racial tension in its many forms and I have been a victim of it myself. Niggers and rednecks have renewed thier hatred periodically by fighting or throwing racial slurs. The tension seems to be equal on both sides. Both sides having niggers/rednecks who can't seem to grasp the reality that we are all, if not human, equally deserving of life/liberty/respect and intelligent blacks/whites who have learned to coexist with little to no problems at all. I have, however, noticed one recurring trend.

At my school, i am a senior, saying "nigger" is severely punished and you are likely to be beaten to death but saying the word "redneck" or "cracker" or "honkey" isn't punished at all. Why? What the fuck is the difference? You may be thinking that i am proposing that people who use derogetory slurs toward whites should be punished equally as those who direct them toward blacks. I'm not. I think that these are words and should not be punished at all.

People who take offense at arbitrary words show a lack of higher thinking. Also those who use them to incite rage show an equal amount of stupidity. This type of behavior is childish. It is non-productive. Sure we are all different but we can all think and reason and that should be a similarity that should link us together.

I personally believe that blacks and whites are not of the same species (i.e. human) but that we are both from different lines altogether. I believe we split a long long time ago on the evolutionary path and at that point we both ceased to be what we were and became something better and different. Therefore the ideas of "same-ness" and assimilation of the races is total bullshit.

Our government tries to convince us that we are all the same...we obviously are not. Instead of trying to assimilate us why not just acknowledge our differences and try to get along. So in the name of freedom i would like to say "May all the niggers and all the white trash of this fucked up world kill each other off so that all the various intelligent entities of this planet might have a chance to survive and coexist in peace and productive happiness"

Thank you for listening to my rambling diatribe. if you print it, in the name of freedom, then email me and tell me. all nasty letters can be directed to your anal cavity. all opposing POV can be direct to this email address. this isn't worth printing is it? Ahahhahahahhahaha -- johnny dangerously

We have more Teenage Pregnancies than any other EEC country also more sex-related crime. I believe this is because of censorship. Why are we so ashamed of sex? Our chidren should be given adequate sex-education and then maybe there would not be as many teenage girls getting into trouble. Has Pornography affected the French, Germans, Dutch? I don't think so. --Graham

Why can't people understand that what is offensive to some is not necessarily offensive to others? Why don't people understand that it needs to be up to the parents to decide what is best for their own children. I never let my children have unlimited access to anything. Not the television and not the Internet.

Frankly, it isn't about children. It's about the right-wing, ultra fundamentalists who desire to control our lives. It's about narrow-minded Puritanism. It's about religious people who are simply terrified that somewhere in the world, people are having a good time. --Dawn

And even if it's easy to be free
What's your definition of freedom
And who the fuck are you anyway
Who the fuck are they
Who the fuck am I to say
What the fuck is really going on?

We are the future generation and we desrve freedom of speech and that's what America is all about anyway. --Mark

This page is about freedom, whether you feel it is "too loud" or not. It's my way of saying I won't let them censor me. And, it's a way for people to come together and talk about how they feel. Big brother may be watching, but he won't stop me or anyone on this page. We won't be silent. --Heather/Webmaster

Remember, your rights are being revoked, bit by bit... will scream and complain on the internet but not actually do anything else active to stop this from occuring?
Well, the shots rang out like popcorn and the Chief was hit and rushed out of sight
The mohawk-chain, leather brigade rejoiced maliciously on that night
Someone called out "Fuck the Government"
His mates couldn't define what he meant
So no one gave him the time of day
And the scene died away
--Greg Graffin, "Empty Causes" Bad Religion, The Grey Race --Stephen

I suppose it's too much to hope for, but maybe one day the world will consist of people who can co-exist with each other. No more child-beaters/molesters. No more violence. Everyone will accept each other, despite their race/creed/sexuality/religion/drug use. In reality, as long as someone isn't hurting someone else, why should ANYONE care what they do? Why do we feel the need to exploit one another?

I dream of a day when child pornography will no longer occur, because of the respect that people will have for each other. But, until that day... Fuck You Jan Andre. --Stephen

This applys to all forms of communication. The government has no right to play big brother and tell us what we can or cannot say, speak, or think. The proof that facism is at our doorsteps lies before us: the First Amendment has been violated. I urge you all to take active protest against this henious crime against the people of the world.

Do not be a pawn. Fight this one tooth and nail. --Stephen

Don't be fooled, pornography is only the start. Next it will be dialog like this and then, who knows. We must not only talk to each other but we must communicate to the legislators that they might not be legislators much longer if the fuck with the internet. Stop them from going any further with this act of control. Make them undo what they have already done. Make them give us our rights. --Mr.Bill

And the tobacco industry is constantly being attacked by these so called health groups, and is almost banned by the government. I mean, isn't it a freedom of choice to smoke? And last but not least, porn and cussing on the net is just too bad. I mean, if some so-called good christian bitches about porn and finds it offensive, a simple click of the mouse or pulling the line out of the modem should solve the problem.

This issue is NOT ABOUT CLEAN AIR, HEALTH, or PROTECTING CHILDREN FROM PORN. THE GOVERNMENT DOES NOT CARE. It is about the government trying to control what we should do for leisure, what we think, and what we say. we must fight against this if we are to prevent our kids from living in a dictatorship, because the land of freedom sure as hell is becoming one. --Leakey
