Pete Seeger was a talented songwriter, and there’s nothing wrong with being a pacifist, but you don’t have to be anti-American to do it. Maybe they could name the bridge the “Shut Up and Sing Bridge”, as a reminder to entertainers that being able to perform doesn’t mean their opinion on anything is of the slightest interest to anyone else...

I’d still rather have entertainers offering unsolicited political views than Republican ex-Senators like Warner and Lugar coming right out and endorsing Democrats.

He was no pacifist, he just thought we fought for the wrong side.
