things might not bet banned by law but companies assure that the more...."extreme" stuff doesn´t make it to the market place.....it might not be the law but the practical effect is the same.

I suggest you watch a documentary called "this movie is not yet rated"....which deals with the behavior of the American movie ratings board and how it basically "bans" some movies from getting a theatrical showing by slapping it with an NC-17 code....no standards are defined for the attribution of this level...and the jury members identities remain secret...very free indeed.....the entire documentary is available for free on Google Video...I suggest you take a look.

as far as free goes....I´ll just say that in my country the elected president is always the person that wins the popular vote of the entire people....unlike some examples I could think off....*cough*electoral college*cough*
