It’s shameful and even pathetic when misinformed and misguided celebrities take advantage of freedom with complete disregard for the responsibility that goes with such freedom and have no concern for the consequences of their hate-statements. These people benefit greatly, and take advantage of the very system they hate and they pay no mind to the effect their words have on everyone around the world — they feed those that hate. Their words and actions are at best careless, unproductive and irresponsible. This is pure cowardice not an exercise in “free speech.”

Personally, I didn’t follow the link above, and I won’t be buying any Chrissie Hinds or Pretenders albums (I haven’t anyway).
