I dont agree with the double standard about how it's ok to rap about killing gays but not black people either.
Personally I wouldnt be offended if a rapper rapped about killing crackers. Maybe its because I don't consider my race a huge part of my identity? I mean, my whiteness doesn't dictate any part of my personality.
I don't know but I feel I could take the heat without getting offended, fully knowledgable that its a work of fiction. Obviously not everyone feels the same.

Well I was talking to YOU. That;s why 'YOU' was in my response, I'm not sure how that has anything to do with 'guilting you into my viewpoint' or whatever. I wouldn't be offended by anti-white comments either, but recognize that white men are the least oppressed people throughout the history of this country and we are still the majority. And ok, forget I said about ticking time bombs, you're still calling them crazy aren't you?? Please just tell me what is so crazy about gay women opposing anti-gay, rape lyrics?? I'm not being sarcastic with any of this, I literally don't understand why YOU and others either don't understand or hate how they handled it. It's not like they are all over national TV bashing Tyler, they made a post on their website about it.
