Hmmm ... so because we did it in the past, it was automatically a good thing? Such as slavery, segregation, internment of Japanese-Americans and other such happenings? Outlawing rap music would do nothing to change inner-city problems. But I'm sure it would make you feel warm and fuzzy that you were actually doing something, pointless or not, just as the Million Mom types get all soppy over their dream of banning guns in America because they think it would end gun violence.

I agree that rap music adds no tangible benefits to society but my buck stops there. I don't buy it, I don't listen to it, I ignore it.

If someone asks what I think of it, I repeat the above sentiment.

Rap music as such reflects the very hypocrisy of the left that, on one hand, castigates any reference to a woman as a babe, smokin', hot momma, etc IF it's a white man and/or conservative while, on the other hand, has limited, non-existent criticism for any rappers' use of 'ho, bitch, slut, "get down on your knees and do your business" etc. UNLESS it involves someone like Eminem. Why. Well he's white of course.
