Free speech in music

I think that every American citizen will agree with me when I say that freedom of speech is an essential part of democracy. This right encompasses many different areas of American life including but not limited to actual speech, clothing, what we read, what we see on television, and also what we hear in out music. But where do we draw the line on what we can and cannot say in music? I say that …

…are bigger fish to fry than whether or not some guy who no one might remember in 5 years is saying a dirty word on an album. All we can do is hope for a resolution. I say this only because if people such as myself who are pro speech in music were to get up on our soapboxes and try to repress the anti speech people, we would be no better than they themselves would.
