Pat Boone on censorship

From the Washington Times:

Mr. Boone said that if he were in charge of standards, there would be stringent controls on material.

"It must be majority approved ... voluntary ... and self-imposed," he said, clad in a yellow blazer, black slacks, a canary yellow tie and white leather shoes. "Censorship is healthy for any society, and that goes for arts, entertainment, anything. Self-imposed means that the majority of people say that is what we want, and it can be changed if people's attitudes change, which is how a democratic society works."

Good thing Mr. Boone is not in charge of standards. (Link via Marginal Revolution.)
