By actually reading, listening or looking at the artist's works we are expected to learn who the real enemy is but instead we kill the messenger. Whether you like or dislike Dire Straits is irrelevant because today it's Dire Straits but tomorrow who knows who it will be?

It amazes me how in depth some of the PC groups go to ratify truly trivial matters like this when real discrimination towards individuals is happening on a daily basis and interrupting their quality of life and then the media follows suit on lambasting the non-story so they can sell more ads and we the sheeple follow along obediently.

They're taking lessons from the group in the US who decided it was an awesome to censor Huckleberry Finn. :facepalm:

I find this PCness really sad because we're starting to erase history and rewrite history with every word change.

and dooming ourselves to repeat it

In the move "Midnight Cowboy" both Jon Voight and Dustin Hoffman's characters use the terms "fag" and "fagot" liberally. I guess Midnight Cowboy's days are numbered. The bright side to this story is that more than a few Canadian stations have played the song in protest to the decision.

It's not really my kind of music but its the principle of the matter. I get a hard on for lost causes. Show me a naked ideal and I'm ready to rub one out right there on the spot ;) (willing to bet you could have gone the rest of your life without knowing that :surprise: )

The story states that, was there an edited version of the song, it would be acceptable.
There WAS an edited version of the song. It was released on .45 the same time as the unedited version.

Son of a bleep!
What the bleep are they talking about?
Don't they know those little bleeps run the entertainment industry? That's why that bleeping word has never been questioned.

That & the fact that they're homophobes!


I am now thoroughly convinced that you do not even remotely understand the concept of someone quoting someone. In your limited thought capacity you've concluded that what someone says in a quote becomes their own words and they are therefor homophobes. Hence you neg rep me for quoting Blazing Saddles thinking I am the homophobe. I bet you think movies are real. Geez, please let the grown ups talk ok? go back to the kids forums on the interwebs.

Wow! It really really means a lot to you!
PS - it is a quote if you use the QUOTATION MARKS around the aforementioned quote. If that hasn't been used by yourself then you are the one who does not "even remotely understand the concept of someone quoting someone."
Odd to read you come to the conclusion that I think movies are real. Of course movies are real, they aren't figments of peoples imaginations!! What you really meant to say was that I think the characters, narratives & situations in fictional movies are actually real events.
:hatsoff:

Rather odd, & somewhat disappointing response considering I have demonstrated how a quote works, they are called quotation marks for a reason sir. I would hardly regard my corrective response as a waste, nor therefore would I consider it appropriate to say you would make an exception in my case considering that I have imparted grammatical knowledge upon you.
