South Park really is art. It forces you to think using controversy and pop culture. When they go "too far," it's for a reason (unlike Family Guy, whose shock value is its gimmick; which is really too bad because Seth McFarland is actually very funny with a knock out voice).
When I first started watching the episode "F- word" and hearing "fag" get said over and over again, I thought, "oh South Park, this better be good."
Once again, their message is progressive, and that's what I believe is most important. Although I don't think hate speech is okay in the everyday, no matter who you are hating, I do support South Park and their right to use language and entertainment to promote thought about our society and cultures.

Today, so far, "fag" has been used 792 times. It's not even noon. Think B4 You Speak.
