censor this

Contributed by jessejames on Thursday, 15th December 2005 @ 08:35:55 PM in AEST
Topic: FamilyPoems



i live in america the red white and blue
the land of the free
still people in this world do
their best to censor me
you can censor what we type
but never what we feel
you cant expect us to pay money
so we can "keep it real"
it's okay for children the read about suicide
but wrong for them to read a cuss word
i don't know what the basis is
but man thats obsurd
so go ahead and censor this
mark it up with your red ink
but you can never censor our hearts
so i hope thats not what you think
freedom of speech i guess only in the U.S.of A
the land of the free where nobody
tells us what and what not to say
children shouldn't be unsupervised on the internet
this is the place for them to learn bad things they
will come to regret
so parents do your job and controll your little ones
and dont blame others when they play with guns
i guess im finished, i've said what i wish
so get out your red ink and censor this

well said jesse- the internet is no place for children without supervision- and adults should not be censored.
Peace and Light

Jesse, although you may have been well intentioned, maybe you should have done your homework before posting this. I think what bothered me most was the authors note:
“this is for unamerican and non americans who dont believe in freedom of speech”

Check your PM’s for more information

The only thing I want to censor about this is the horrible spelling...

Can fully understand your frustration Jesse but I guess there is a line somewhere and I don't envy those who have to draw it.
