No, they shouldn't. Debian is not about censorship. I personally find the quoted joke offensive, but I'm not about to say he doesn't have a right to include it if he so chooses to. If you don't have a thick enough skin to deal with the fact that the world is a big place, and not everyone thinks alike, then perhaps you should roll your own distribution. http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/ Similar to what another poster said, the day Debian starts censoring is the day I stop advocating Debian as a distro. "I may not agree with what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it." Voltaire. --kurt
