With the fear of sounding racist, and I'm really trying not to be... We live in a culture that has spent a LOT of time trying to artificially elevate minorities in society (despite their resistance) and a lot of time trying to make the majority feel guilty for everything they say and/or do. Rappers can say and do a LOT of things that no other group can do because the belittled public is scared to death of being labeled a racist, fearmonger or as the newest generation has so eloquently put it, a "hater". Society today is really rather pathetic.

In the 80 I used to listen to Doctor Demento. There's one song that comes to mind. I believe it was called The homecoming queen has got a gun. Of course that would never be played today.

It's just a way to express my frustration at spammers. I lived much of my life in a time where people in this country could say what they wanted without fear of being punished by the government. I forget this is no longer a free country. I'll apologize to anyone who was offended by my remarks. One more thing to consider; a government bent on taking away peoples' rights will not depend on truth. It will make up an excuse if truth does not provide one.

Why don't you just hack them out of existance? Come to Hackfest the 2nd Saturday of every month at DeVry University in Phoenix from 11-2PM. Call me is you get lost!
