The new apple notebook impostor.

So I posted about censorship, and how I think it’s anti-fucking American.  Well, I’ve been censored again.

For as long as I can remember, probably 10+ years, I’ve subscribed to Newsguy for Usenet access.  I posted the following excerpt from the lyrics to Ice T’s “Freedom of Speech”:

Freedom of Speech, let ‘em take it from me
Next they’ll take it from you, then what you gonna do?
Let ‘em censor books, let ‘em censor art
this is where the witch hunt starts
You’ll censor what we see, we read, we hear, we learn
The books will burn
You better think it out
We should be able to say anything, our lungs were meant to shout
Say what we feel, yell out what’s real
Even though it may not bring mass appeal
Your opinion is yours, my opinion is mine
If you don’t like what I’m sayin’? Fine
But don’t close it, always keep an open mind
A man who fails to listen is blind
We only got one right left in the world today
Let me have it or throw The Constitution away

So, a company that I PAY money to, for “uncensored” access to usenet, decided to censor my reply to a message that they don’t agree with.  The reply was to a message the owner of the business posted about how there’s too much crap on TV.  I told him it has an “OFF” button and posted the above lyrics.  The post was deleted.  How dare I disagree with him.

What really pisses me off, is this is a company that provides access to Usenet.  Do you what that means?  They provide access to a nearly unlimited amount of porn; pirated music, movies, and software; and discussions about almost any subject imaginable.  Yet they won’t publish my comment saying that TV viewers are free to turn off the TV, and that everyone deserves the right to say what’s on their mind.

Now if that ain’t a bunch of bullshit, I don’t know what is.
