He said some content, such as clips of beheadings, was unacceptable and new standards of decency were needed.

You see how parents "parent" their children in the local Wal-Mart? Give me a fucking break... regulation is the only way this is ever going to go... sad to say, but most parents stopped being parents a long time ago. I'm sure 2/10 of them could spell the word "responsibility" correctly if you asked them.
