I agree. Censorship is censorship, no matter where it comes from...

The original post to which Tenorlove was
responding complained that the show was broadcast by taxpayer-funded PBS,
and called for those who are against homosexual rights to write to their
representatives to complain about tax dollars being used to broadcast such
a show. That's a call for censorship, and if successful, could just
as easily be used against those who are now calling for such a
measure. Today you succeed in getting what you perceive as a
'pro-homosexual' broadcast removed; tomorrow you'll find that some groups
were just as successful in getting a show you perceive as 'pro-patriot' or
'pro-conservative' or 'pro-Christian' removed, also...
