I think the problem is that yes an "artist" is free to have their opinion, however I also think they have access to a forum to ram it down people's throats that the "average joe" doesn't have access to. They have the ability to hit and run. On the flip side, we can steamroll their records, call the radio stations and gripe/ask them not to play their stuff, protest outside their concerts, etc; Many people here are tired of "celebrities" who can barely run their own lives telling us how to live ours (don't drive SUVs...get out of my way I've got to hop on my private jet, corporate America is evil because it makes money...I live in a Beverly Hills mansion). Nice imagery with Torquie, there...next thing someone will bring up the "Red Scare".
