Subject: RE: Objectionable Material - The sequel
You left out my line.. "have to take PERSONAL and group responsibility.." I didn't intend it to be interpreted as 'group think'. My point is that each individual's choices add up to affect the entire society. I'm a rugged individualist to the core. But, I do think my statement is accurate in describing how trends are set, for good or ill, by groups of people making similar choices. The more people buy violent lyrics, the more they will be produced. I have worked hard over the last five years to help people who have been harmed by self-righteous groups (left wing, right wing, and everywhere inbetween). Laws are not enough when people have no conscience to follow them.
