I imagine the History Channel should do that for just about every movie and documentary they do.

I noticed that Amazon Prime added warnings about American Restoration:
Drug Use (They referenced getting a beer after work)
Violence (They use tools to free rusted parts, sometimes even...omg trigger warning...hammers)
“I am not one of those weak-spirited, sappy Americans who want to be liked by all the people around them. I don’t care if people hate my guts; I assume most of them do. The important question is whether they are in a position to do anything about it. My affections, being concentrated over a few people, are not spread all over Hell in a vile attempt to placate sulky, worthless shits.” - William S Burroughs

My Mom took me to see The Who's Tommy when I was like ten years old. Only effect it had on me was I wasted a bunch of quarters playing pinball for the next few years.

That's just stupid. Who the hell drinks beer after work?
By the time my day was done, I was sick of beer. That's when I switched to whiskey to keep from getting sick.

What would these pussies who pretend they spend every waking moment "fighting nazis" do if they watched even a sanitized movie like "Patton"?

Post it to YouTube. I'll give you a thumbs up, and a link to LAPD discovery of Richard Ramirez victims video.

They were given cyanide in grape-flavored punch — the Kool-Aid people are always told not to drink.

Cool! Purple Drank! I should make some of that today while I'm piddlin' around the kitchen. Stomach's been a little too edgy for jalapeno martinis lately. Probably covy.

My guess is that the FCC told them they had to or their permit is pulled

Hey, the government isn't really violating First Amendment if it's a private company doing the censorship at their direction, right?
Shit yes, I didn't kill that wino, my car did.
Not even a hazy line these days, just everyone willing to accept blatant lies.
