Republicans & Censorship. What did I forget to add to my list?
Edited on Mon Mar-07-05 09:17 PM by rjx
In the last year, what have the Republicans tried to stop that I left off of my short list? I only have 3 recent items on my list. I know there were more, but I can't remember. I am starting to keep track now.

Thanks DU'ers!

2. Oh my goodness. hehe
I forgot about that one.

Was it just sex toy / masturbation references during prime time? I thought I also heard that the Republicans wanted to prevent people from buying / using sex toys?

thx

3. Check out the states that ban the sale of them.
Alabama, Texas, Louisiana, Georgia and Tennessee I think.
Google them to be sure.
