Framing it as "removing potential harm" from the children is no different then the shit Congress and the Moral minority put out there in the name of "it's to protect the children".

Oh, that's a lovely word - revisionist.

Right wing bobbleheads and their fellow travellers love it dearly - so dearly that they keep using it over and over and over again until people quit hearing it and it loses all meaning.

The photograph in question depicts the illustrator of a children's book. Since the only thing removed from the photo was a cigarette, absolutely nothing of any significance was changed except the fact that the illustrator was a smoker.

Where's the foul?
