TKE4Life
You should not take offense to my comment about YOUR argument being "dumb" because THIS is not YOUR argument. THIS is a nationwide argument.
Incedents like this and how they are protected by the First Amendment have been argued and discussed for decades, if not centuries, and I doubt that any answer will come about on Greekchat.
Like I said, I am TOTALLY for freedom of speech, just not its abuse.
And...
If you thought hard enough, you would also find the logic in my argument about rape victims, etc.
You find "personifying an aborted fetus or a rape victim....tasteless and abhorent".
Well, believe it or not, myself and many other minorities find black/red/yellow face equally as tasteless and abhorent. Just because you cannot identify with or empathize with this fact does not make it not the case.
TKE4Life, owning one of those red jackets is fine and sporting a single white glove is perfectly fine by me. Michael Jackson has many impersonators, you see them on tv and in magazines (better yet TABLOIDS) all the time.
But why do we not see these peoples' and others admiring blues artists and motown in black face on broadcast television?
