Techno Rocker Moby Weighs in on Schiavo Case
MSNBC ^ | 3.24.05 | Jeanette Walls

Posted on 03/24/2005 6:40:19 AM PST by gopwinsin04

Moby says he doesn't want to be drawn into the Terri Schiavo case, but writes on his Web site:

'My note to the far-right would be: You cant have it both ways.

If you genuinely believe in the sanctity of life then you cannot support the death penalty and you cannot allow people to buy automatic assault weapons and you cannot support wars that result in the deaths of hundreds of thousands of innocent people.

And if you genuinely believe in state's rights then you cant pass intrusive federal legislation when the states do things you arbitrarily disagree with.'

Has Moby had an album out in the last 10 years?

Wow, Moby speaks to his fans about news events. I bet all nine of them are fascinated by what he has to say.

This brain-dead vegan seriously needs to start eating some healthy cheeseburgers.

Let me take this opportunity to inform my fellow FReepers that not only does Moby own a tea shop in NYC (http://www.teany.com), he may also be selling bottled tea at a convenience store near you.

You may, or may not wish to purchase his teas. Depending on how you feel about boycotts.

Well...I'm bald...just FYI...

Actually, my hair started thinning a few years ago so I shave it every day with a Mach 3 razor...I love it.

Thank goodness. For the last week, I've been tossing & turning at night, desperate to know what techno rocker Moby thinks of the Schiavo case. Finally, my long nightmare has ended.

These pro death characters say it's all right for someone to die if they don't have their whole brain intact. By that same measure maybe they need to consider suicide because they have no hearts.

He must have a lot of time between breaks at his tea shop in NYC...

Personally, I've been waiting for the members of "Haircut 100" to weigh in.

The idea that there's some kind of "moral equivalency" between these things is just ludicrous.

But if Moby wants to link them all together, is he willing to go to bat for Terri's life?

RR, you got it RIGHT! W/o my prompting.

Bald is not bad - so I tell men they should just "give it up NOW" when they start balding rather than trying to cover it up in myriad ways (1 guy I dated held onto those scraps up top - pure black hairs on a pasty white head - even brushed back, looks like yucky pubies! Stop!!). SHAVE IT OFF, I say, until it actually isn't growing any more!

No, of course not! They're just as much "hypocrits" as any of us.

Too bad they hypocrisy on the side of BAD criminals and terrorists.

I suppose then we should be ashamed as a nation for World War II, according to "Moby".
