Government
Menstuff® has compiled the following information a variety of
subjects, all of which involve the government on some level.
HR3687 - The Bleeping Game
The Govenor (of
California)
HR3687 - The Bleeping Game
A new bill is sitting in the house of Representatives, authored by
Representative Doug Ore (Republican-Sacramento). The only real
difference in the bill from what is already in place, is that it
increase the fine to television networks/stations when they don't
bleep out a word that is offensive to some (regardless if it is
daytime soaps or late night adult entertainment, or shows that many
parents would never let their children watch in the first place.) It
reads, it part, " As used in this section, the term 'profane', used
with respect to language, includes the words 's___', 'piss', 'f___',
'c___', 'a__h___', and the phrases 'c___s_____', "motherf_____', and
'a__h___', compound use (including hyphenated compounds) of such
words and phrases with each other or with other words of phrases and
other grammatical forms of such words and phrases (including verb,
adjective, gerund, participle, and infinitive forms.)" But, this is
an election year. And some are wanting the FCC to have something
to do since this administration has taken all of the teeth out of the
FCC that had prevented corporations of making a monopoly out of
the broadcast business. As Tim Goodman reports in the San
Francisco Chronicle (1/19/04) " Instead of adding more
nonsensical legislation (remember, Republicans, smaller government)
how about a bill that says, in part, "The FCC will no longer be
allowed to let gigantic media companies monopolize the airwaves. If
they do we will take their mother_______ a__ out to the woodshed
and beat the f______ s___ out of them for p______ away their
obligation to protect the average citizen from corporate c___s_____s.
I'd vote for that."
What about legislating those words off the playground and out of
the teachers lounge, and out of the kitchen and garage? Would you
(the reader) vote for that?
