Re: Censorship;but logical internet rules same as newspaper rule

Censorship is not needed or wanted.
TV and Radio are 'broadcast' to the masses and, for the most part you can still watch uncensored material... Utah may beg to differ.
Is there a reason why you may think that censorship in required ? Unlike billboards, TV, radio and newspaper that are broadcast to the public (i.e. I don't need to pay anything to get it), Internet requires searching. There are tools to censor out there if needed at the personal level.

You can also do the research and see that as more and more uncensored material has been broadcasted crime rates increased, teen sex, and teens having babies has increased. Pretty much the entire moral fabric this country was founded on has declined with the introduction of "uncensored material".

You can say it is poor parenting and for the most part I would agree, however, how you are brought up greatly effects how you behave and how you let your children behave.

There is PAID TV ... and there's BROADCAST TV

I do believe that there is a place for censorship. There is also a place for free speech. Who is going to judge what should be censored. If I speak out against a corporation or public official where censorship exists, I will never be heard.

In many european countries, nudists beaches exist, yet they don't appear to have the same 'moral' issues with sex, teen pregnancies or high crimes. I do agree that many of this is due to poor parenting and general state of this country, not censorship.

If you'd really done any research you'd know you just posited a Post Hoc Ergo Propter Hoc fallacy.
