It incites/supports gay violence. Sorry my dude, but it's like playing a song that says you should lynch all black people. Hope you enjoy the concert anyway?
I see your point, but these lyrics are threatening towards other people, and THAT'S why she says they should be censored. This is a very delicate topic, though.
Dude, you guys need to read the article. It's used to threaten gay people so it shouldn't be sung, that's all. And it's only ineffective because people like you are so homophobic you only read when they say you shouldn't do something.
The Bible also says that women should not be in positions of power, and refers to shrimp more times that being homosexual as an abomination. Do we listen to that? The problem is, not everything in the Bible is strictly correct (shocking I know, whatever shall you do with your life now?). That doesn't mean the Bible is bad, it just means that like everything else, its been coloured by people's views. It also says you should love your neighbour and you're doing a terrible job at that, so I don't see your point here. Also, if there's no censorship then I can curse you out in the street as much as I want and walk around naked. Censorship is there for a reason, you just can't take it too far. However, that stuff about the Bible is a good point. SHOULD it be censored? It says some awful stuff about people sometimes.
First of all, that's not true. Second, thank you for expressing your opinion (however based on misinfomation it may be), without insulting or threatening people. There's a difference between freedom of speech and harrasment and threats. Boom Bye Bye is a threat, and that's why it's a problem. Hopefully you can see it our way for a second. That song is encouraging the killing of gay people, using slurs against LGBT community members. That's why it shouldn't be allowed. Now if it said, "Hey! I don't think being gay is right!" then that's fine, because he's expressing his opinion and we can respect that. Saying you don't like any gay people is also not okay because it's disrimination; you're completely ignoring the fact that someone may be a nice and amazing individual for something that they can't really control (ie love). Nobody ever said that you have to agree with us, and again thank you for stating your opinion, we're just hoping people don't hate on us for who we are. You can't help all the people you offend, you know, especially if it's something like your lifestyle. Your lifestyle is the way you live. and are you saying they should turn around everything about them to fit with how YOU want them to be? What happened to that freedom of speech thing you're talking about? People will be offended. You can't control the way people feel about you, and it's not up to you to decide how people live. If some rando came up to you and said, "Oh, you're black (assuming you are black, whatever race you are if not), I don't like that. Oh, you like the opposite gender, LAME. Change it, you straight, *insert race here*, piece of garbage.", would you apprecciate that? It's not about accepting their lifestyle. It's about accepting them, as people. As in, be nice. Don't judge a book by one of the smaller chapters in the story. Who you love, what gender you are, what race you are, doesn't define you. It's the choices you make that do.
Again, thanks for the comment. I kinda wanted to get that off my chest without being immediately called stupid afterwards.
That person wont see it unless you reply, and my reply was a bit.....insulting. But I agree with you. People need to get their priorities straight and it's actually NOT illegal in the Bahamas to discriminate against LGBT people.
