Thread Name: Folk Singers who are Politically Conservative
Subject: RE: Folk Singers who are Politically Conservative
Vin also receives support for his views, I have seen it with my own eyes at his concerts, your comment is unbalanced, Vin believes passionately in pro life he chooses to be controversial he cannot expect everyone to agree with him.
it is my opinion that the folk scene is tolerant, however I reserve the right to object to any singer spouting inflammatory racist speeches during their set.
Vin is a decent guy and obviously does not do that but hypothetically if he did or anyone else did I would have a right to object., however unless the singer was saying inflammatory racist comments,I would let the performer continue and then try and discuss the matter privately
the uk folk scene is in my opinion tolerant, the audience has a right not to applaud, but generally speaking discussion privately is in my opinion the best way to approach differing political viewpoints
