Oh no! Not an expletive!

This whole story about an expletive getting through on SNL is utterly ridiculous. First of all, this is on late at night. If the whole idea is to "protect the children", their parents should be protecting them a lot more by sending them to bed before midnight on a Saturday night. If this is to not offend people, they shouldn't be watching SNL to begin with. Half the skits on SNL have a lot more lude content than one little curse word. It's just dumb that this is even an issue.

see, i'm with you. i think even if there is a word that some idiot deemed "harmful if heard" sounded out at 8pm on the OC it won't phase these kids. they USE them everyday...it's in their music. the only people who are truely "offended" by curse words are people who have absolutely nothing going for them in life so they bitch and complain about anything they can. they started the "war on swearing" many many moons ago and i don't see it ending until someone in charge just says, "Look Anges, we understand you don't like some words, but this is America toots, if you don't like it...stop LOOKING for it. you don't like the content on the Family Guy, why do you invite your friends over every Sunday after church to discuss last weeks episode before watching the new one?"

also i'll add that until they prove to me that some kid required hospitalization due to hearing someone say "fuck off" these FCC assholes cannot use the excuse that these "bad words" hurt kids...
