it was just a comment people. now please do not jump all over me.
He said "don't vote" not "can't vote".....I would be inclined to agree with you had he said "can't" or "ineligible." But he didn't.

smiley, as senusret said, if he said can't and not don't, I'd be more inclined to agree with you. But he didn't.

It's also not the first time he's posted a bigoted, hateful comment. If it was, i'd give him the benefit of a doubt, but it's not.

I also don't think i'd agree that most of Eminem's fan base is under 18.

I haven't seen the video, but it would be safe to say that voter turn-out in the 18-21 crowd is not traditionally high.

I have no idea if the video will motivate more people to vote or not.

I thought it was stupid...

I think Eminem is a dumbass. He is just as guilty as the people he makes fun of. Like Rudey said....he only does this controversial shit to get attention and make a buck... Oh, and....his voice is soooo annoying.

I'm sure that Eminem is very concerned about your opinion. Would you like to tell me what he is guilty of?
