Exactly so, it's his right. And it is
also the right of those who disagree with him to decide not to buy his
merchandise.
With the chicks, their statements outside of
the country were so egregious that they offended me. Therefore I don't
want to listen to them. They had a right to say it, absolutely, I have a
right not to listen. It's the free market at it's
finest!

I said
I didn't agree with how the chicks went about what they did. They were wrong,
but I did like their music before and I won't turn off the radio of it comes on
and I will still listen to the cd's that I have. I see no point in throwing them
away. King's was more of a statement against Bush, which I saw as being no
different than someone speaking badly of Clinton. He just doesn't like Bush,
which is his right.
As far as the Chics go, anti-American in a
different country is crap. I cant speak about King, have no idea what he
said.
I just don't see the point in even having a "banned
list". I mean yeah completely disagree with their opinions and views, but
isn't that part of what is so great about America is being able to have those
different views. I don't agree with half of what any of the starts said, but
if I started adding them to a list of stars I would never watch/read/listen to
again, I'd have no form of entertainment. Even though I didn't agree at all
with what the Dixie Chicks said or how
they went about it, I still listen to them. I'm not going to quit buying a cd
if it sounds good. Same goes for Steven King, if the book is good, I
won't stop buying his books. And on the upside while I'm still working at the
bookstore, I'm able to "check out" books like at a library so I can
bring it home and read it and if I like it, I can buy it, if I don't
, I'll take it back. And for the record, King's newest book, Wolves of
the Calla is like #2 or 3 on the Best Sellers list right
now.

Oh it was this
year..an anti war statement. I was quite distraught over having to add him
to my banned list.

I have read everything by King. he is a
favorite. Though, I haven't bought a book since he made his derogatory
remarks to president Bush. When did he do
that, and what did he say?
