But....WHO decides how to rate things?
What you might find offensive, I may not. So, who do you have as a judge?

Like the stupid movie rating system......a movie can get a PG rating for something pretty inoffensive, such as a kiss, yet there are people who will not let their children watch anything but "G". What's wrong with a kiss? And then there are those ultra-right people who found "Bambi" offensive.....should they be doing the rating system?

A rating system can be as bad as censorship.

BTW...it is not a cop-out....I just don't personally use those words, however, it is JJ's board and we follow JJ's rules....NOT yours.
