Censorship is required for certain age groups. The Canterbury Tales were mentioned. I remember a scene where someone kissed a ladies nether eye in the dark. Great stuff for kids right. A lot of rap needs to be labeled for what it is and not sold to just anybody. Other than age restrictions there should be none.
What wasn't mentioned was the censorship that happened to the radio and TV a while back. The Democrats tried resurrecting it again recently. It sounds nice to say that every political talk must be counterbalanced by opposing views. However in reality that means no one gets to talk. The reality would be that every group would line up to have an opinion different than the last several on a topic. That forced the radio and TV to only run adds. Censorship at its worst. Everyone gets shut down. Are they going to do it with politically correct talk or hate speech? Republican hate speech is what Democrats say and visa versa.

Parents should be responsible for what types of content they permit their children to consume. Not Government. Not Corporate entities such as Clear Channel. This is a reflection of the social ill that parents don't spend enough quality time with their kids. They want someone else to take care of it. The question becomes who? Who is wise and objective enough? No One! Only you can decide what is appropriate for your children. What child would have an interest in reading Canterbury tales? (Unless they were told they weren't allowed to). What child would have any idea what a ladies "nether eye" is? If the "child" is old enough to understand what is being talked about, they are probably capable of reading The Canterbury Tales. (It was required reading in my high school English Lit. class) If it is in your personal library, would your children be interested in reading it? I doubt it. It's difficult, because of language changes.
