let me tell you something about those old men/monkeys...they act as if they are so reasonable and intellectual but they're idiots. First they make the mistake of citing advocacy as the problem when Zappa points out that incest is described in the bible, and secondly of assuming causality by asserting that incest has become a promise in the last twenty years

I suppose some esoteric mantras and such may have significant psychological power as words alone, but that seems like a clear matter for individual judgment, outside a _fascist theocracy_.

And if the concern is with the ideas that words can express, well, the government has some of the worst ideas in the world, so government censorship would just give it an unfair advantage over the competition.

I don't agree with every opinion I've ever heard attributed to Frank Zappa, but he certainly came across as a man among monkeys here, no offense intended to those who are literally monkeys :p

4:45 - Zappa is HILARIOS. Even though he's not laughing, he's having a laugh at these fools.

this isn't a discussion of copyright though it's a discussion of censorship?

You can tell that only one man in this clip gets laid regularly.The others are in need of a hot meal, a good laugh and a better blow job...big time.

Can you believe the way these assholes are speaking to him?? I love Frank's responses. There is no one that even comes close to Frank Zappa's intelligence and talent!!!! God Bless!! I miss you Frank!!!!!

Nobody does it better than Frank!!!! He is and will always be my idol!!!! Just watch as he makes them all look like ass holes. Watching this really pisses me off because they try to make Frank look bad. He was such an intelligent,talented man, I miss him sooooo much. God Bless!!!! Frank Zappa will NEVER be forgotton.
