And here is the head jerks' email in case you lot feel like sending a little complaint yourselves.<br /><br />Every little bit helps. We have to defend our freedoms.<br /><br />ron.cohen@cbsc.ca<br /><br />-------<br /><br />Sir<br /><br />In light of the highly ridiculous decision your group made regarding "Money for Nothing" based upon ONE (1) complaint, I wrote to you several days ago - as of this date and time, you have not had the courtesy to respond.<br /><br />The decision is based upon false conclusions reached by your organization, and is not supported by many gay groups. The single complainant does not speak for the entire gay community.<br /><br /> I submit that had this same song been written/recorded by a Black artist or an artist from another minority group, such as a gay person or a Native Canadian or American, your group would have rejected the complaint for fear of being labelled descriminatory.<br /><br />In my opinion, your organization has stepped well outside of the bounds of intelligent and fair decision making, into the realm of knee jerk reaction and over-zealous political correctness.<br /><br />I find it both distasteful and alarming that a small group of people in your position should be able to act in such an arbitrary manner and with so little good reason.<br /><br />There are many songs on the airwaves right now with lyrics that are overtly offensive to many different groups, but they still remain on the air ..........Based on your recent decision, if any one person should decide to take offence to any song, including the National Anthem, you might choose to ban it.<br /><br /> I believe Canada is still operating as a democracy, your decisions should reflect that.<br /><br />This decision should be changed because it is wrong and is based upon complete ignorance of the intent of the song writer.<br /><br /><br />Louise Peacock<br />Songwriter / Internet broadcasterWeezyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03709874647757045773noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11578122.post-73624226322015454082011-01-15T16:19:40.432-05:002011-01-15T16:19:40.432-05:00Weezy,

Of course, there would have been another reason too (I'm such a cynic) MJ was BLACK - so no one would dare to say anything for fear of the black card getting pulled. I am willing to bet that if Mark Knoffler was black, or a one armed Somalian single mother, nothing would have been said either.<br /><br />Our stupid society is filled with double standards and BS.<br /><br />Wow, Anonymous - seriously the Brits pulled meat balls? that is too freakin' stupid.

Was there outrage? Was there denouncement? Was there discussion? Was there acknowledgment? No. Of course not.<br /><br />Approximately 70 years ago, the Western world, in some cases directly, and in other cases indirectly, murdered almost all of the Jewish people in Europe.<br /><br />Now, 70 years later, the Western world, including the members of Gay groups, is colluding with a genocidally anti-Jewish, genocidally anti-Gay, totalitarian supremacist religious political movement to commit genocide against the Jewish people in Israel.<br /><br />And members of the government of a Western country, to show how beneficent and tolerant they are, ban a rock song that uses a hurtful offensive anti-Gay word.<br /><br />The Western world is rotten with, and self-destructively insane with, Jew-hatred.Daniel Bielakhttp://www.youtube.com/danielbielaknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11578122.post-17774971533740186442011-01-13T18:54:50.407-05:002011-01-13T18:54:50.407-05:00Totally pathetic.
