I think "South Park - The Movie" delivers a nice kick to american censorship.
However, I think this board benefits from keeping profanity away from the posts. Not because I think it hurts anyones minds or something, but because it is totally unnesessary to use those words when you are having a discussion with someone. If I hit my finger with a hammer, I'll dig up one from my dictionary, but when having a written discussion it's uncalled for in my opinion.
So is namecalling btw.
My conclusion: I think censorship is silly in general, but useful on forums.
