Springsteen Controversy
I was wondering if anyone else is familiar with the current controversy surrounding recording artist Bruce Springsteen's yet to be released song entitled "41 Shots" (if I'm not mistaken)? I'm hooked on CNN, MSNBC, CNBC, and heard that the song was first performed at a concert in Atlanta last week.
Police officers were asked to boycott his concert at Madison Square Gardens because they feel it is anti-police. The song refers to the 41 shots fired at Amadou Diallo of which 19 bullets hit and killed him. Their excuse is that the city is in the process of healing and this is the worst possible timing.
