Censorship of Music in the Media The American society of today has buried its head in the sand. If our venerable representatives in Washington, D.C. and our respective state capitols feel the need to regulate which musical albums and concerts I should be exposed to, then I guess that means I will have to find someone to vote for who doesn't feel th...
