Ok, please inform me why that is encroaching on freedom of speech? If someone says fuck they bleep it out sure, but don't they do the same in almost every other country? Perhaps they don't delay telecasts because they haven't had problems before, but I know for a fact that there are people sitting there ready to hit the censor if someone says something out inappropriate for the timeslot. Not that I fully support this idea, but really, it is quite insignificant.

And in any event, what is more significant? Throwing people in jail for criticising a belief system, or bleeping out fuck if it appears on TV? Also I should point out that I naturally don't accredit any of the freedom in America to president bush or any of the other recent fuckwits before him, but instead to those great men who founded the nation.

(btw I see Germany in your location bar, mind informing me about the internet pornography laws there? They exist for a valid and very debatable reason to you know!)
