So everyone would be cool then with Charlie Daniels (or, pick someone) making a video with a mass lychin' of black dudes for a song called "The Good 'Ole Days" and then claiming that it is "art", nothing more, nothing less ?
Are you seriously asking whether it be okay if someone reminisced about a better time and showed black people being lynched by a tree?

So, instead of merely saying "nappy-headed ho's" ... Don Imus would have been much better off and fully justified with no repercussions in making a rap video in which he puts nooses around the heads of african-american women who may or may not have less than desirable hair features.
Odd .. but, whatever.

As long as people have the same standards across the board, I'm fine with it
But we know this isn't the case

So, should YouTube allow pure free expression on their medium or should they ban anything and everything deemed offensive?
So you don't think an individual should be able to stand up and scream fire in a crowded theater, WE?
The Administrators rule this Forum...and the Campus Police run the show at an LSU v Ole Miss ball game; both set limits on the freedom of expression and both civility and security are better served for it.

I can think of two SJWs with six kids between them here in BR alone.

Context is important. We're talking about YouTube videos. Maybe read the rest of the thread.

I'm not positive but i think it's a subtle advocation of women's right

You don't like that... tough shite...

No one said you couldn't be outraged. Do whatever you want. By that same token expect other people to make fun of your outrage. You can be more outraged at that if you like

No, that was over his personal attacks earlier in the thread.

I think most people are okay with it. Majority rules...except for presidential elections, of course.

In general these people have poor taste.

The only majority needed is the Electoral College. Stick that under your beard or fedora.

That's a two-way street. So why do you support the hanging of kids? What doesn't connect in your small mind? What evil is in you that makes you think this is cool and ok?

Would you be inclined to believe allowing this video speaks to a double standard?
