Angry

I am really pissed off about this ya'll. A radio station in Colorado was fined, I believe $1000 some for playin a radio edit of Eminems the real slim shady song. Now myself am not at all fond of Eminem still see this as an outrage! Mainly becasue of the Bushs' Administration and of their new "rules" that try to keep suggestive matieral off of the radio. Now this is just wrong mainly becasue the song had no profaine words in it or anything. It just suggested profaine words, now Im not at all a fan of editing the artists' original work, becasue it goes against the artists' first admendment right, of freedom of speech, and takes away from a good song when all you hear is bleep bleep bleep all the time. This all started becasue of one of those PTA moms heard it and filed a complaint becasue it had suggestive material in it. I dont see what the big ****ing fuss is, I mean come on I can understand for giving the radio station a fine if they played an un-edited, "raw" version of the song, but I mean come on shouldnt the parents of america do something producting with their time like drawl pictures or something. STOP RUINING IT FOR EVERYBODY ELSE!!!!!!!!!!!!! ok thats my lil outburst of rage that I had to vent, please feel free to post your feelings about this.

Coincidence that the government censors music that tries to expand and open your mind? Maybe? I don't think so. The government is the biggest bunch of chumps I have ever to lay eyes on. Actually, let me extend that. ALL GOVERNMENTS ARE LIARS. The government likes to keep people stupid by using the mainstream media and such.

Also, I love how they censor marijuana lyrics, but they somehow let "I feel some Hank runnin' through my blood" in Kid Rock songs..

Lightbulb Clearly. . .

. . . this is a first ammendment issue. However SS, it is a common mistake that people think lots of things violate the first ammendment. The truth is that it is only a first ammendment violation if the government gets involved in censoring. Even then however, if the government officials feel a need to bend the rules set for them by our founding fathers, they will.

People seem to think they have a right to not be offended.

Smile "smoke weed everyday"

If anyone (probably everyone) has heard the song "The Next Episode" by Dr. Dre, it ends with "smoke weed every day".

Stupid ignorant radio station edits that part out.

What's up with that. How is "weed" a curse?

They say it on TV and stuff. I know I've heard Jon Stewart say weed before.

Whatever, all I know is that the government has gone way too far, and something needs to be done before we're all rounded up into concentration camps and gassed. Or maybe they'll start making us wear green weed leaf patches on our arms, so they know who is a potsmoker. Or maybe, they'll even prohibit potsmokers from getting jobs.

Oh wait, they already do that. It's called DRUG TESTS.

Wow, maybe the holocaust never ended.
