To keep it short and simple, without causing a fight, as a veteran, their comments offended me greatly. If that wasn't bad enough, I'm a die hard Toby Keith fan, and natalies little stunt with her FUTK tshirt after they started squabbling with one another was lame.

I probably cant give you the kind of answer that you want, but it basically boils down to the fact of if you are really against something, then boycott it. I've boycotted it, the radio stations around here dont play it, my friends dont listen to it. Its not a matter of peer pressure into NOT listening to it - it just seems to be "the right thing." The people who are boycotting them were so offended with them, that who wants to listen to their music, and help them make money?

I think I heard it best once when someone said "Keep the dirty laundry in the family." It would have been one thing if they were in, say, Seattle, putting on a concert, and they said it - but for f*ck's sake - she was in England, talking trash. That's just 100% not cool.

With that being said, do you think at some point the country industry/community will at some point forgive her or at least start buying their records again? I'm not a country fan per sey but what caught my attention was their cover of Fleetwood Mac's Landslide. Those girls can harmonize really well and they have a really nice sound. I 'd hate to see that talent go to waste.
