Puritan history hard at work in the 21st Century

What I love most is that 'Mericans have absolutely no issue owning lethal firearms, watching TV shows and movies where someone gets blasted away by a 12-gauge but show a bit of skin and the Puritan sensibilities that set up their great nation many moons ago, come racing to the surface and they loose their freaking minds. Show the kiddies some mean guns and a TV show where bad guys get blown away, "That's what makes a America great kids!". Show kiddies a tiny bit of flesh and it's "Scumbag, evil porn merchants are screwing up the youth of today with their filth!".
