I sure wish entertainers, producers, bankers and sponsors of profane movies, DVD's and CD's would be held to the same standards that an individual such as Paula Deen is when speaking in private or public. Perhaps it is time our entertainment industry takes some real responsibility for helping to foster an environment where people feel comfortable using and accepting profanity and vulgarity. Yet the people in the entertainment industry only say they are mirroring what takes place in society and it's not their job to clean "us" up. I guess when we stop buying their songs, books and movies and going to concerts full of profanity, entertainers will stop it.
