Default Music/Music Video Censorship

I'm sure that there has been a thread made about this subject in the past, but it didn't come up on google when I looked it up.

The Parents Television Council is apparently in the process of attempting to ban Rihanna's video for "Man Down" where she is sexually assaulted and kills the man responsible. According to some of the parents on this council, it is a horrible form of executed murder etcetc.
What do you guys think of this? In my personal opinion, I honestly think that there are worse things on television than this music video and I think that banning this video on primetime television is taking away from the artist as well. This is the second video, if I'm not mistaken, of Rihanna's that has been considered for a ban by this Council.
What do you guys think about this?
Here's a video complaining about the situation (Comedy mostly):


Here is "Man Down" by Rihanna:
