based on the eli roth thread, i thought we might expand the topic a bit and look at who else should not be allowed to have a voice.
so, fire up your ideas for who should be muzzled and not allowed to have their ideas infect the nation?
if you want to take the next step and suggest a means by which we as a nation can decide who can and cannot have their voice heard, that might be helpful too. would there be a committee that decides, "nope sorry, those ideas are bad for people, you cannot say them out loud?" how would such a policy be enforced? with the availability of the internet for people to put them out, would we rely on the internet companies to both delete such content and report those who try to upload it? would there be jail terms? because let's face it, some people are just going to keep trying to get their ideas out there, so the only way to completely silence them would be to lock 'em up.

papa, you're starting early today!
I think we definitely need to censor any and all people who turn movies into musicals. They simply corrode the integrity of such masterpieces as Wedding Singer and Legally Blonde.

"I think we definitely need to censor any and all people who turn movies into musicals."
Not all movies turned to musicals are bad. Both "Nine" and "A Little Night Music" were based on movies and they are perfect.
As for who should be silenced - I should - and the way to do that is to make sure I always have my mouth full of something(or someone).

Posted: 6/5/07 at 8:10amI wouldn't mind if I never heard the voices of both Rosie O'Donnell and Donald Trump.

I didn't take it that seriously.
As for Trump , I agree. But I like listening to Rosie - unless she's producing another B'way show.

Posted: 6/5/07 at 9:06amI don't think anybody should be silenced, really. However, I can hardly wait for Rathnait and RobbO's batteries to run down permanently. They've already said all the ever say multiple times.

Michael Bloomberg, hypocrite mayor of New York.
His response to the JFK Airport situation was "Get a life". Yet if you ride public transit in New York, he wants "If you see something, say something".

With a gun, of course, papa - it's the only way to ensure peace.
I KNOW you know that.
