“The better part of valour is discretion, in the which better part I have saved my life.”
William Shakespeare, ‘King Henry the Fourth, Part I’ (Falstaff, Act V, Scene IV)

The ASA has, by banning a commercial, the showing of which might result in developments similar to what has come to pass here in the States, preserved English freedoms we Americans are in the process of losing. The grossly irresponsible behaviors of Janet Jackson and Justin Timberlake have done a disservice to freedom of expression.

Given their recorded talents, it is likely that in 20 years time, the only reference to either will be in legal tomes as footnotes to yet another law encroaching on what had been traditional freedoms.
