This is some sort of artistic show, I can't see the issue.


Artistic? Since when are so many restrictions put on art?

You ever heard of freedom?
Some shows reserve the right to have the kind of show they want to put on.
Don't like it don't attend or appear.
You can go to one you'll like somewhere else.
This country has been fucking light years ahead of yours in theatre for ever.
Does freedom in your country mean all venues must adhere to what you dictate?

What is the point of going to university?

Or films? Where can see the film 'Bury my heart at wounded knee' in Texas?

Well yeah, you asked “since when are restrictions put on art?” I said since forever.
The cavemen probably got away wit a few risqué paintings though. You want to return to those days?

None of my ancestors lived in London.


My Dad got evacuated and my Mum hid under the table in Southfields SW18 :mrgreen:


My uncle was an ambulance driver that got hit by a bomb and he died - in Southfields SW18

Do you think Uni students can handle exposure to something like Charlie Hebdo, or is that too intense for them to handle?

The fact they may not wish to see offensive rubbish and rather spend time broadening their minds seems too intense for you to handle.

How will they know it's offensive rubbish without seeing it?

Probably should just ban comedians from universities, the students need to be broadening their horizons. :gigglesnshit:
