More or less my position. I find it silly but within their rights, although this is something I strongly disagree with. Just another addition in the long story of gay people in cartoons getting censored.

That's a nonsensical comparison and you Know it. Your argument iS basically "It exists and therefore they have an obligation to show it." They don't. If they did, they would have an obligation to show literally everything which makes no sense.
to not show it is pandering to bigotry and homophobia. If a parent doesnt like their kids being shown something that is perfectly normal that is their problem not the the networks and they should not pander to it.

Are you going to be funding APT during their next funding drive? No? I thought not. The idea that a public television network should potentially commit suicide by alienating a sizable block of potential donors just to meet your ideological ends is completely narcissistic.

or maybe the people of the state shouldnt be so ignorant. It was the writers choice to create the episode and if someone in rural Alabama doesnt like it too bad. It is censorship no matter how you spin it.
Why doenst NBC not show Will and Grace in state too?

I mean look at AIDS and other STDs and how they affect homosexuals and drug addicts its clear God is punishing these acts.
1. Okay let me rephrase this. There is no logical basis for homosexuality being wrong. The idea of that is just some old relic people have sadly not given up.
2. And no AIDS and STDs do not prove jack shit about the morality of homosexuality. They affect homosexuals because of biology not god punishing them. Beside if your god does punish homosexuality he is an asshole.
