 Topic  Censorship 
 Message  I’m fucking tired of all this god damn mother fucking bullshit censorship! We have freedom of speech(supposedly) yet we can’t curse or use words that are associated with drugs, and or sex. What the hell? Curse words are still WORDS, only someone deemed them innapropriate for society to use. Freedom of speech is the ammendment I utilize the most, and this being a poetry site, I would think that be equivically imprtant to others. Being able to say what we want, and not haivng anyone stop us. Not true anymore. If a movie says fuck more than once, it’s automatically rated ’R’ at least. Why?

 Message  If you don’t care about freedom of speech than why the fuck are you on a website for writers? For whatever reason you’re considering this a whine, but complaining about abortion isn’t? Yeah, that makes sense. Anyhow since when did sticking up for something you do or don’t believe in become a waste of time? Are you that much of pushover? Do you really care that little about what hundred of thousands have died to protect and ensure for future generations? And they say our youth is ungreatful, huh, I wonder why

 Message  Your freedom of speech, my freedom of speech it doesn’t really make a difference to me.
I’ll write whatever the hell I want, and if someone’s offended I’ll ignore them.
I won’t start bitching about Freedom of Speech.
You know why?
Because it’s a waste of my time.
Whining doesn’t change anything.

 Message  Freedom of speech, also comes with reasponsibliity and applicable consequences. I’m not ab out to write a death threat to bush and male it, than complain that’s a violation of my rights to be arrested for such.

 Message  "Freedom of speach" was never intended to cover much of what it is used for today. It’s the crazy courts that have interpreteted some real nonsense into it. If your speech or writing causes a riot, death or such, you should be held accountable for that action. If you distribute porn to minors, you will still be held accountable for that.

 Message  "I dont care about your Freedom of Speech whine." oh shux, if i cared what you thought that almost might hurt. So was it whining when our four fathers founded America? Or for me not to take it up the ass, when they infringe upon my constitutional rights? I mean after all freedom of speech is; what the first ammendment? Kinda important to them wouldn’t you say? I guess I’m just not used to being someones bitch. And doing or not doing something just becasue someone deemed so appropriate or not. I actaully use the mind I was given to think for myself, you might wanna try it some time!

"Curse words are still WORDS, only someone deemed them innapropriate for society to use."

I dont care about your Freedom of Speech whine. I was referring to what you said above.

 Message  As usual miss gun the meaning is beyond you. It’s not the "cursing" it’s being told what we can and can not say, that completely contradicts our "freedom" of speech. However "curse" words are just words some people find "innapropriate" what makes them different from anyother word? Just becasue society says so? What makes shit a curse word, but poop not one? Can you answer that, with a more sufice answer than becasue your mommy and society said so?

 Message  Rated R movies aren’t rated R for one stupid cussword.
If you ask me their ratings are becoming much more lax.
PG 13 these days should be Rated R.
Not everyone appreciates swearing like you Dismentled. Others prefer being more creative.

 Message  I really don’t care if a 6 year old says fuck you, it’s fairl;y obvious the kid doesn’t grasp what it means. And I doubt "curse words" would be used as much, or even an issue if we didn’t make it one. And the way we use our freedom of speech is irrelovent, that contradicts the whole "freedom" part. Do you really enjoy society telling you what you can and can’t say. Basing on what they find "appropriate" or not?

 Message  what purpose does saying "I’m fucking tired of all this god damn mother fucking bullshit censorship!" serve? what point does it convey that saying "I’m tired of censorship" doesn’t? maybe it’s the way we use our freedom of speech, not the extent to which we can.

 Message  Because you don’t want a bunch of six year olds waltzing around saying "fuck you" because they like the way it sounds.

Besides, swear words are what I consider to be indulging, since all of them have too many roots and derivitives to be real words.
