on Bob Dylan Commits Plaigarism at 23:34 05/21/2009

Anybody who follows Bobby D. knows that he is all about the old America, about what America used to be and took inspiration from those of the Woody Guthrie era. Lots of artists share ideas and borrow ideas. Just because he reworked one person's poem when he was a teenager does not make him any less prolific. Look at all of his other works since. And, even if he committed light "plagiarism" in everything he did, he's still an important symbol for 60s America and carries on the old American tradition in art.

No. I think it's ridiculous. Those are her own moral beliefs. Don't get me wrong-I'm all about gay marriage. Allllll about it!!!! However, we can't keep attacking this person for expressing her personal morals and beliefs. Discrimination has got to go, but it's not like this chick is the president and saying-All homosexuals must go to the moon to marry and stay there. It's not like this chick is in charge. There are going to be people against it and it's wrong. People are still against integration and are still racist. It will never go away! But should we bash someone for their religious beliefs? It's not right. Gay bashing is not right either, but this country was founded on the idea that people's personal moral beliefs, their values and their religious beliefs should be freely expressed.

There are many people out there like her and it's unfortunate that they can't see that people are being discriminated against, but I'm glad that Perez is taking a stand somehow for gay rights. I'm just not sure this is the most correct way way. It's been effective thus far, though, so power to the gay community! But I think it's not right to have her step down. It's a bit ridiculous.

That honestly made me feel uncomfortable. No exaggeration.
