I'm Just Bustin' Ya Balls!
I enjoy Family Guy most of the time, but this statement, by writer/creater Seth MacFarlane, is so colossally stupid, and explains everything I dislike about his comedy and philosophy:
Grrrr!

Unless they’re hiding it well, there’s nobody on our staff who’s bigoted or homophobic. We’re all very progressive, and as a result we feel comfortable making jokes. We know what our own beliefs are, so no matter what we do it can’t possibly come from a negative place.He misses the point entirely. I don't care whether you are prejudiced IN YOUR SOUL -- I care what happens to your words once they're out there in the real world. I care whether or not they embolden casual meanness. I care whether or not they make life difficult and painful for people who don't deserve to be hassled.
Grrrr!
Love
Dan
