So after one single letter on how the song 'money for nothing' by the dire strait would be offensive towards gay people, the song got banned in Canada.

Personally I think this is just ludicrous. Except for the fact that the song is everything but insulting towards gays, there are many songs with overly violent or sexual content that remain uncensored. Not that I'm pro censoring that either.
Anyway I was curious to what you guys think about this case and censoring music and other media in general. Do you approve of censoring or are you against it? What standards should be used for censoring and how should a censoring system work?
