Yes, they should stop playing anything by anyone who ever said something insensitive, controversial, or that I disagree with.
300+ channels of dead air.
I get your point. Agreed, it's a stout defense of all of our rights to loathsome wrongdoing. I don't happen to share your opinion that nobody is responsible for themselves or what they do, but that's just me.
Big believer in personal responsibility. However, I believe entertainers should be just that. (And shut the hell up on "issues")
I don't give a damn about their politics, religion, opinions, or who they sleep with. Not big on boycotting them because I disagree with them in any of these categories.
You and I seem to disagree on a lot of things, but I'm not going to boycott the great content (and opinions) you bring here. =)
Kind of you to say! Still, nobody's talking about striking Journey to the Center of Your Mind from the Library of Congress. At least, nobody mentioned it at our last atheist secular humanist conspiracy stitch'n bitch. The stakes of this letter are that one, or maybe more, people may cancel their Sirius XM subscription. Not that you'll be prevented from quiet enjoyment of Wang Dang Sweet Poontang in your own home. Let's not pretend we're sending time travelers back in time to erase Cat Scratch Fever from the far reaches of every hypothetical universe. We can leave that kind of paranoia to sacks of shit like Nugent and Jones.
I didn't get my invitation. I think they dropped me from their membership when my dues check bounced.
To clarify:
I'll go so far as "he's a bad person, and you shouldn't listen to his music". Acceptable statement.
Big red line before "he's a bad person and you, and everyone else, shouldn't be able to listen to his music".
