| Stop the FCC Fed up with the government deciding what you can watch, read and listen to? Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances. -The First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution Sign the petion if you feel you should!!

| The only thing I don't agree with is the FCC monitoring cable/satelite. Since you have to PAY for those, there is no need to. I have no problem however with them monitoring broadcast television. The reason is that television stations do not own the airwaves. The public owns them. Therefore ABC, CBS, etc. have to follow the decency standards that are set forth. In essence, they don't have the RIGHT to show whatever they want; they have the PRIVELGE of showing stuff, as long as it follows the decency standards, which in all honesty are not that bad. | |||

They just censored Outkast's new video because one of the guys smashed a mailbox and didn't get into trouble with it. (You can show violence in a video, if the person who does it gets repercussions at the end. Totally stupid.) __________________ Keeper of: Miranda & Steve Brady's relationship. Brady Hobbs.
