So let me get this straight... you are saying that it is OK to censor and force people to not print a cartoon, because some people may get offended and riot.
Yes if it would cause a needless loss of life, and I would say the same thing in every instance.
I do understand what you are talking about, and maybe I'm not making my point. It dosen't matter how broad the scope of censorship is in one country, but more of how it's used/defined. Besides there are forms of censorship that are benificial to a society/person. If we as a people were to get rid of everything that censors us from anything else, I would have to give up my beloved pop-up blocker, and there isn't a snowball's chance in hell that will happen.
I honestly don't care what China "TRIES" to censor, the people are going to get to it one way or another if they truly want it.
