Don't quite understand that, if you find something objectionable, that you would subject yourself to watching it.. because, and this is my opinion here, if you watch an edited version of a porn that removes all shots of male and female sexual organs, profanity, and graphic sexual scenes and skip over them, you're still watching a porn.. just an edited version.

No your watching nothing at all as there's nothing left to watch after its edited.

Indeed, but it's still a porn, just edited down so that some 6 year old can watch it.

This is part of the pussification of America, and indeed, the world. Political correctness will be the death of us all. (Opinion, not fact)

We need English teachers to stand up, and stop teaching these crapped-down versions of once-great literary masterpieces in their schools. So, little Timmy read the N-word. So, little Susie read that some man raped a woman. They hear this on the news ALL THE TIME!

Stop protecting children! Pretty soon, Children will begin to die quickly because they'll be immune to nothing!

I don't think it has been released yet. So we are still safe for now. But who here wants to buy up copies as soon as their out and have a good old fashion book burning?

I know its just that some one has to think this is a good idea, or why would they have done it.

Outside of the potential of them to keep printing and printing to replace the previously charred copies of their book, seems like a good idea.

... Why would you want a censored version of Lolita? And why would you care what a censor has to say about the work?
