The needs of the many far outweigh the needs of the few. Individualism is overrated. We aren't long for this earth- why must we always be all about individual pleasures?
The greater need for society to be able to coexist peacefully should outweigh one person's need to hear or see violence.
They used to have Public Decency laws, where guidelines were created to keep things at a happy medium, but OH NO people had to prove how EDGY and sophisticated they were by debasing it. They had to prove what REBELS they were for ratings, and now everything's fallen to shit.
The furor over being subjected to Janet Jackson's boobage during a family football game is proof in the pudding. You've already got blood and violence during football- you need boobs too? Non-cheerleader boobs I mean. Boobs are great, don't get me wrong, I like them, I keep a couple as pets, but that doesn't mean I want to SEE them when I'm munching cheetos with my kid, yknow?
Imagine if you will me trying to explain the pasty as not-a-part-of-Janet's-original-anatomy.
