What's this?

My POINT is about depicting VIOLENCE on a roadside billboard

Your point about having it both ways is completely irrelevant to my argument. I am not advocating censoring movies or any other art. Nor am I suggesting women should be treated differently than men.

Don't put porn on a public billboard, or violence, or obscenities....out of RESPECT and a sense of civility. there's no REASON to have to. That movie does not need THAT scene on a billboard to sell tickets.
