Re: Responce to Soulja Boys Military Dis

  • I haven't heard the original song but the response to it I heard about a week ago. I think it's a good response to the other rapper.

  • I didn't look at the link but I don't know how anyone can take soulja boy seriously. I just can't get it up to get mad about this stuff anymore. People say this kind of stuff, they always get backlash because it's "THE TROOPS!" and that's that.
  • I didn't listen to the entire original song but in the first like minute of the song he says f*** the army troops....i hope he gets the life beat out of him...
  • I don't give a shiit about a 21 yr old mouthing off about things he has no idea about. I would care about some military member beating him up for it. That is not the way someone should act let alone someone in the military. Reminds me of something I used to say in elementry school "stick and stone can break my bones but words will never hurt me".

    Why? Because he holds a highly unpopular opinion and/or is a stupid attention whore? Isn't part of free speech the ability to hold a dissenting opinion without being beaten to death?

    This is more of what I was thinking. 

    While what Soulja Boy said is obviously completely ignorant, this boy in the military should know better on how to act and what [not] to say.

    Becuase he's disrespecting the people who fight and have fought to give him his freedom of speech...if you don't agree with the war, what Obama or some other politician has to say this week or anything like that...whatever go nuts.....but I think the line should be drawn there.

  • To say he needs to be beaten up is immature.

    Meh, I get where your anger is coming from, but there are more ignorant people in this world besides him that I'm sure they have said far worse about the troops. It's one of those things you kind of just have to deal with.

    I object to your gross misinterpretation of the Bill of Rights, but will not wish your death or hope someone censors you because of the ridiculousness coming out of your mouth. That's how freedom of speech works.

  • Like someone else said, there are always going to be people who don't agree with what the military is doing. Try not to get so riled up by it.

  • I heard some rumblings about this about a week ago.  It didn't even pique my ire enough to look into it more.  He's just some jerkoff looking to get his 15 minutes of fame the wrong way.  Is he even big or am I that old and out of touch that I don't know who he is?

    You should beat the life out of it. Obviously it is disrespecting you and that is how you should handle disrespect.

    Look, I get why people get angry when someone says things like these. I'm sure that your realize that part of freedom of speech is that people are going to say stupid, ignorant things. It's his right to say it without being censored and physically harmed, and it's your right not to buy his stuff an support his career.

    He had one big 'hit' that was called "Superman". It had it's own dance and all. 

    I will say that the quality of the Army guy's music is much better than the 'famous' one.

  • I said on the entertainment board that I just cannot get riled up about this when there are presidential candidates talking in debates about taking ac units from troops in Iraq/Afghanistan to give to FEMA (rather than, you know, buying more).
    I've seen a lot of military surprise homecomings. It wouldn't work on me. I always have my back to the corner and my face to the door. Looking for terrorists, criminals, various other threats, and husbands.

    Well, as Voltaire said (or close to it) "I disagree with what you have to say, but will fight to the death to protect your right to say it."

     I get that you're angry and are taking it personally, but you really shouldn't. In a perfect world, no one would say stuff like this, but in the mean time, I have much bigger things that I want to spend my engery on rather than being piissed about some ignorant attention seekingwhore rapper. Meh.
