Bob Marley, Sinead O'Conner, and WAR! - Dylan's 35th

exactly like flag burning and in my book flag burners get booed too.

While I don't burn flags or rip up pictures of the Pope, I believe in a person's right to do so. It doesn't bother me, since these things are just paper and cloth.

of course they have the right. just as i have the right to disapprove. just as the aryan nation has the right to preach white superiority. just as i have the right to fart on a date.

everything is permissible. not everything is appropriate.

Well, I'm sorry. I didn't write any of the rules or set the standards. I conduct myself in ways meant to convey respect most of the time, but, I understand when a person has to vent or make some unpleasant point. So long as the person does not cry "Fire" in a crowded theater or physically assault someone, I say, "So what?"

Here is the incident on youtube

she's cool

Wow!

I'd not heard of this....and I am amazed at the negative reaction.

Is this still some sort of negative for her?

i don't know anything about this present situation
but she's often in trouble. If she wasn't, I'd worry about her.
She made a song a short while back with Asian Dub - (1000 mirrors) ...don't know if you know it - but it's about domestic violence within the Asian community.
i was really pleased to see Asian Dub Foundation hook up with her, and its a powerful song. When it comes on my mix, i always stop what i'm doing to listen.

its here if you ever want to view/hear it
