Banning rap is a non-starter. Conditions in the community that buys and supports rap music create the market. Banning rap music won't fix those core problems, in fact it would likely create one wicked riot.

Cart before the horse, rap doesn't CAUSE the problem, it's just a symptom of something much deeper.

Yep, just as banning guns doesn't solve gun violence. Different proponents, same concept - that legislating away the symptom somehow cures the underlying disease.

Right on, but continue because the drug problem fits here too.
