Good day. I recently had a conversation with a few parents. We were talking about how the morals have declined since they were kids. We can see that most kids today often tend to imitate what they hear(music) and see(movies/videos). Many people say that rap music for example should be banned from the airways. I told the parents that even though they may do that, a lot of what the children practice from a moral stand-point is what they learn from home. So what are your thoughts, should the government/groups step in and allow a ban on rap music (which degrading, illicit, voilent) and could decency ever return to the way it was decades ago?

Jump to PostInsulting is never a good thing
That is not true. Insulting is usually a good thing. The only kind of people that get affected by insults are those engaging in acts of self-deception. If one has an unjustifiably large opinion of himself, it is the duty of his fellow members …
Jump to PostOnce you start down the slippery slope of banning things because they're "bad for morals" or "improper for people to see" there's no end to what someone will end up banning.
Maybe we should ban the Bible? After all, Muslims and atheists are pretty riled up about it...
