Censorship.......Grinds My Gears.

Throughout my life I have been perturbed by the whole concept of censorship. Who came up with it? Why is it such a big deal? And lastly what true purpose does it really serve?????? Now I am not just talking about Chris Rock on Comedy Central censorship or the movie Striptease being shown on TBS censorship, I am speaking of all censorship. I also have another question, who decided that fuck, and shit were such horrible words to the extent that public use is frowned upon? That goes along with my whole issue with censorship. So here is an example of how pointless censorship is, take this video from our nifty friend youtube.

This video shows Senor 50 displaying one of his many hobbies, pimping these b*****s. Now I purposely chose to use the edited version of this video simply because if you are even remotely familiar with the English language chances are, you can fill in the blanked out portions of the song. I am willing to go out on a limb and say that somewhere close to 99% of the 50 Cent fans out there knows the proper words to fill in those blanks. Now one of the main reasons I choose to not listen to the radio is because I would rather hear a nice smooth song that was made to be listened to rather than chopped up and spit out by those nice folks at the FCC.
So lets talk about videos now...From what I have seen on TV over the years I must say that somewhere near 90% of the images censored out have to do with women, and their special stuff, so take a look at this video (which i have posted before due to the great creative concept behind it)

Ok I know that was a lot to take in, especially to all those virgin eyes out there, but I want someone to tell me, what other than female breasts, or a mere female womb could be lurking behind those colorful cover-ups? Could it be a deadly 3 headed zombie-gangster out to take your first born children? Could it be images of the large object (that was NOT a plane) that hit the pentagon on 9/11? Well my human nature would tell me its probably just some breast, but that just a guess. There are arguments made about keeping these words, phrases from young children. Well with me being a realist, I will give it to you straight up from when a child is born its usually breast fed for a period of time so that covers those pair of boobs I mentioned earlier, then I am sure most mothers are going to leave their baby un-watched while they go get changed into their Sunday morning church clothes, NO they are too attatched to their little 3 year OR he/she is such a badass that they MUST be watched, making the chances high that they will see their parent figure naked at least once (so that covers age 1-3). A child usually starts kindergarten at age 5-6 depending on the parents preference. Now I have never heard of a single grade elementary school before so lets say your child attends one of those k-6th grade deals where they interact with children of many different ages, being truthful-half of those kids curse outside the presence of their parents after hearing none other than.....drumroll....their parents use those oh so naughty words. SO to all those Americans who complain about hearing these evil words that someone told them was bad as a child or that its not cool to look at hot Asian porn (word to Mickey Marx) in the Towson public library, I think you need to stop worrying so much about simple shit, life could be worse. Thanks and sorry for the long read.
