Pornography is a mental illness that is transmittable through the internet as well as other forms of media.Like any other addiction it feels good while you are doing it but leaves you empty and emotionally bankrupt afterwards.

I absolutely agree with what Woody is saying. He's a true patriot. Come on Americans, THINK! It doesn't matter what is being protested.. if you agree or not everyone has the right to free speech. As long as it's peaceful.

Woody is an extremely talented actor and a really nice guy who I had the opportunity to speak with some time ago. A lot of actors play contraversial roles theses days and should'nt be slammed for them. Also, he may have done some drugs but he must be doing the right ones because he aint dead yet. Unlike so many other actors you hear about on the news. I, myself, don't advocate illegal drug use but it seems there are just as many deaths from prescribed medicine these days. Free Speech?..Yes!!

The thing that I object to is that they cut out the entire statement instead of just bleeping out the one word that was unacceptable. Seriously, how hard is it to bleep a word? The Daily Show does it all the time.

The reason Sally Field was censored was not for what she said, it was the cuss word. Had she just said the message without cussing, it would not have been censored. Regular channels, regular times, kids may be listening.We need the freedom but sometimes disgresion needs to be taken into account.Go Woody!
