Censorship

I want none. Parents limit children's access to adult material.
I've been angered over the years by nannyism from the broadcast networks shielding me from a late night 'shit' or 'fuck' or the unpleasant view of a tit. Now I just laugh. Tonight, AMC is showing The Exorcist and bleeped 'Jesus Christ'! Okay sure it was used in vain (whatever that still means) ie: mother of possessed child says it to potential cleansing priest but jesus christ let's get some perspective.
I remember watching Tin Cup on a Canadian network at 2am and they bleeped language. What the fuck?
TV has been reborn with The Sopranos through Breaking Bad and the content is adult. If I had young kids I'd introduce them to these masterpieces when I felt they were ready.
Network television is dead and censorship is 'The Man, keeping us down'.
As a Canadian I'm interested in views from other countries.
