you're quite willing to censor the Dixies.


Sorry, John, gotta disagree with you. A consumer boycott is not
censorship. AFAIK the US govt hasn't banned the Dixies' songs,
performances et al.

I boycott Greenpeace and their ilk because I think they're mainly
wrong, pretty wholly dishonest and becoming part of the problem. I'm
not calling for them to be banned, tho.

I said he was "willing" to do it, not the gov't actually doing it,
so there's nothing to disagree about unless you think they
should be censored.

Never heard of them so I guess the answer is no. Censorship is amusing
in a way; one group want you to stop looking at/reading about sex and
the other about weapons, as a broad generalisation.

I manage to live very happily without a TV or radio and listen to music
on CD's. OTOH my book collection is eclectic.

I don't want anyone or any viewpoint censored. I wouldn't mind
a reduction in volume for some, but that's about it. Only possible
exception would be spammers. :-)
