I don't like war and whaling, and I don't understand fox hunting, but I still sing and enjoy a lot of the songs associated with these activities. They are "of their time" and should be treated as such, in the same way as we excuse children on the grounds of innocence, or for those who are believers in the Bible, "Forgive them, for they know not what they do",. Too much PC is a dangerous thing; please remember that a closed mouth gathers no feet.
