I went to this church a few times when I was a kid. Still get their bulletins. Not sure if story is accurate or not. I once made an offering to help stop the satanists at Proctor and Gamble, before I knew better. parsy the naive.

"Representatives of several Nashville studios refused public comments, but privately stated that they foresaw little impact from the boycott. As one un-named executive pointed out, "Country and Western Music is no longer the resort of the uneducated red neck. Our demographics show the average consumer of "rural pop" as we classify C&W, makes nearly $6.00 per hour and drives a pickup truck that is less than three years old." LOL...at least this much of it appears to be bogus...MUD

A lot of them cowboy songs include racist code words. Take that song "Rawhide" for example. "Rope and throw and brand em" refers to marking slaves. "Tumbling tumbleweeds" is code-talk for runaway slaves." How stupid can this sumbitch get??? Apparantly he's been taking 'racist behind every tree' lessons from Morris Dees.

Rev. Bagheera was also questioned concerning the inclusion of "Western" music in the boycott. He pointed out, " They are just as bad as the country songs. A lot of them cowboy songs include racist code words. Take that song "Rawhide" for example. "Rope and throw and brand em" refers to marking slaves. "Tumbling tumbleweeds" is code-talk for runaway slaves." Must be true because he says so . Of course, he has absolutely nothing to back this up but there are people who will believe them.

Morris Dees was the 90 pound weakling sitting with the hot babe on the beach at whom Charles Atlas would kick sand.

"Rev. Bagheera was known as Leroy T. Washington before his conversion to Islam and once lived in Albany, Georgia."
And, "Tumbling tumbleweeds" is code-talk for runaway slaves." [Per Reverend Bagheeera]
Say what you will, folks, Leroy is extremely comical for a goat-poker. Poke dem goats, Leroy, You Da Man!!!!

I wonder if we should also boycott rap music because its lyrics often encourage violence and rape and refer to women as "bitches" and "hoes". You hear more hate in an average hour of rap songs than you do in a year of country & western songs.
To: parsifal
Rev. Bagheera also lamented the lack of black country music magicians. I have to agree, there aren't very many black country magicians around. But what does this have to do with C&W music?

I suggest that parents do a boycott of the black rap/sex/violence music. Don't let your children buy this degenerative and lowest common denominator music.
To: SamAdams76
I already boycott rap music. (Except for K-7. They're darn good. Love 'Move it Like This'. ) parsy, who can't move it like that.

They had Honky Hank Williams blaring on the radio as they was chasing me. He was moanin'some kind of blues as I remember. For all the years I've listen to Ol' Hank "Moan the Blues" I've never had the inclination to chase down a black man. An Ol' drunk white woman maybe, but never a black man.
