Twain's Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn are master classics, and Samuel Clemens was no racist.

Edit Twain to "protect" kids while ignoring the enormous sexual "message" contained in present entertainment. I don't get it.

That is one of the best posts I've ever read!!! What the media shoves in our face is fine in their view, but not the classics. This crap has really gone too far.

It doesn't matter what channel anymore. My teenagers will be watching something and they are humping, getting ready to hump, the language is bad, etc. etc. The girls say they are older now and they see the messages that are being sent to them, but I've told them if it's watched long enough, they will turn into the trash that they are seeing. It's beyond bad.
