Once again, an indecency complaint filed with the FCC by the Parents Television Council, a group of professional busybodies vigilantly saving you from seeing boobies on TV, has been tossed out on its ass. This complaint had to do with the show "Angel".

One scene involved Angel in an intimate moment with a female character in which Angel's hips are seen "moving back and forth," the Parents Television Council said in its complaint.

In the scene depicting the female vampire biting the neck of her partner, also a vampire, both characters had clothes on and "their breathing is heavy," the complaint said.

Oh my god, their breathing was heavy! Won't someone think of the children!

This isn't the first PTC complaint that has been rejected recently, leading to the suspicion that the FCC is tired of hearing from them, since reports have surfaced that this group of prudes is responsible for more than 99% of the FCC complaints filed.

It's also clear from this what these people want: the banishment of anything even suggestive of sex from broadcast airwaves.

Yeah, it's bullshit. But on the other hand I sometimes think, let them have their precious broadcast airwaves. Congratulations, Christian Right, you've seized control of a medium that's been obsolete for 20 years.

I wonder how these people have the kids they're so hyped about saving? Maybe they're grown in big containers.
They certainly aren't human...

Uh, what are they trying to do? Shut production down on the show? It isn't on air anymore. And isn't there a teen-viewer advisory before reruns?

While they're off fighting the good fight their kids are jerking off to Hustler in the closet and learning about sex on the street.

Edited because it's too early in the morning to spell right.

I think it had more to do with vampires being on the show than sexual behavior. I think they're trying to use the sexual behavior stuff to attack a show featuring supernatural being. Oh wait, those christian shows aren't talking about a supernatural being? Time to watch christian shows like 7th heaven and find sexual suggestive behavior to attack it.

So how many hours of sex-drenched television are these poor, innocent souls forced to watch, in order to maintain the decency of our society? What a tough job they have.
