"Canada has broad human-rights policies".
HA! Yeah, equal opportunity exists; give me a break.
Anyway, here's an article from the Toronto Sun -
Gay celebs weigh in on censor .
I will say that the thought that the word nigger (used by a black person) is somehow analogous with the word faggot (used by a heterosexual person), is wrong. The former was the intended target of the word they're using, but the latter is someone of a different sexual orientation.
That aside, I do think it's unfortunate that words hurt people (there's an ideal that needs to be abolished). But, I do think it's important to not use words that could possibly offend someone, if only one person; it's just humane.
On censoring the song, the movie is blatantly wrong, and censorship sucks! Enough said!
