I hope it's so loud and so boisterous that it forces a cancellation.

Hit this asshat hard in the wallet! Bankrupt the sonofabitch!

I have no sympathy for him. He's a convicted homophobic criminal and his homophobic government is criminal.

Put his country on the terrorist list, and disallow travel to / from there.

When you got them by the wallet, their hearts and minds will follow.

Well look at it this way, silence is death to a performer. Many in the biz live on bad boy reputations. ALL publicity is good. Don't know if this is good news or not, but at least there is protesting.
Bob Marley he's not.

What's wrong with Buju Banton's music. I like it. Why can't he voice his opinions like everyone else?

Opinions? He's advocating the wholesale murder of homosexuals just because they're homosexual. I'm sorry, but that's not called "opinion". That's called "inciting to riot".

As usual you cut to the chase. This is NOT about his musical ability (or lack thereof), it's not about his fame, fortune or what his favorite color is. It's about his hate speech. Period.

I remember when songs came out about killing cops, they said it was just a song and part of their freedom of speech. No one really cared about it then except for a few groups. (COPS) Other than that no one really cared about the song hurting anyone and so it passed. Now it is against someone else and they have their panties in a wad. Get freaking over it no one really cares about the song or the fact you are gay. Stop thinking you are special and start learning to deal with criticism. Is this what we have to look forward to every time the gays get their feelings hurt they want to destroy everyone they can. Sounds like a bunch of little bitches sitting around trying to make others lives miserable saying look at me I'm special. Their are more important things going on than to worry about the feeling of people that think they are special.

Johnson City Knights of Columbus Lodge 12 members sued Mandy Productions, Ltd. over the performance of gay dance caller Norman Plankey: "Promenade into my bowels, snap my ass with a sodden towel" The courtroom hearing was crowded with observers keeping with the principles of the team, which is a team of practising Muslims, we cannot play against you," said the e-mail, according to PFG's co-founder and current gay dance caller Norman Plankey: "Grab your partner, take his dick, smash it with a big old brick." Pascal Brethes added: "Our convictions are stronger than a game of football. Sorry to have informed you so late." molehill Bush's 3rd Term Jim Sirch PFG believe the decision was "homophobic".

Let's see; hatred, intollerance, making groups second class citizens in their own country, and violence against them. These common themes should ring true to both groups. Don't come to our country spreading your hate...we already have Republicans doing that

What he may be doing is using his music to say how he feels...do I blame him, "no", because it's not like even 1985 where you could speak what was "your" opinion. Is he wrong, i guess, i mean he shouldnt glorify murder, that's no good. But he knows even giving your opinion now a days is "wrong", it's sad in that case. What if Eddie Murphy tried to do a skit now where he slams "fags", he'd be crucified. It's the sensitivity or over sensitivity that ruined freedom of speech...even if it didnt really bother you, you could keep quiet....But back to the singer...no, talk of murder is wrong. Slam me for being white, black, a drunk irish man, or small dinked China man, fine, just be "funny" or "light" about it. I have a sense of humor. Alot of people,(esp gays) dont..

Daily Horoscope for December 11

Libra

If someone owes you money and you're beginning to think that you'll never get it back, this is an excellent day to chase them up. They may not cave in straightaway but at least you'll have had your say and done what you can. Watch out for a tendency to lose your temper, because although this could be quite dramatic if you're usually the soul of equanimity it could work against you if you become aggressive or unpleasant.
