So, someone's writings can be banned?

I'm talking about today(2012) , and the blatant abuse of it that constantly goes on in one form or another . I don't think our forefathers had this in mind when the constitution was written. Morals played a big role when it was written. Of course there are none of that these days.

Did you support John Ashcroft when he put curtains over the statues in the Great Hall?
Drapes removed from Justice Department statue



The level of debauchery and people's behavior back then would shock some of you Puritans.

Some how I don't think think hanging a mans genitals(or a womans for that matter) off the back of a truck is art.

I was always under the impression they were mimicking bull *********. But then it's *your opinion* they aren't art. See this conundrum?

So tell me, which is art and which is obscene?

I'll believe corporations are people when Texas executes one.

You are right, it's "my opinion" . And that's easy, David is not hanging off the back of my truck. It's there for people that wish to see the statue. Unlike the hanging of ***** on a truck to the public. My next project is to put a flat screen in my tailgate and show pornos to everyone driving behind me. LOL

Truck nuts ain't art. So saith the Mantisman! I really don't care if people hang fake bull ********* on their vehicle, BUT when I see them I automatically cut 50 IQ points off the drivers intelligence.
