Right now the Syfi station is showing another of its low-budget horror films. So far some of the victims have been split in half, had their eyes eaten and one person had a huge spear thrust through his head. Needless to say all of these horrors were shown without editing. What was edited was the word "fucking" as in "I cut off his fucking finger". Isn't it great that kids growing up today can see this incredible violence without any of that namby pamby editing so many parents would like to have, but at least they won't be subjected to vulgar swear words which could harm their young minds in all kinds of unpredictable ways. I know if I had a child I would much rather expose him or her to rape, dismemberment, sadism, torture and emotional torment than corrupt a young mind with swear words or—god forbid—any kind of sexual act. Isn't it wonderful to live in a country that has clear priorities.

Note: The man about to hack his viictim to death is not from a movie but from a video game. Well at least he's not planning to have sex with him. That would be so disgusting as to be unwatchable. You've got to admit we Americans have a very weird sense of values.
