I have received enough complaints about this thread to warrant a statement.

There has been much name-calling and hot tempers with many members on this thread. It is not necessary for everyone to agree and this has turned from being a healthy debate long ago.

If you cannot show mutual respect and stay on topic then please move on. Nobody is stupid and no one's opinion is worthless and it doesn't appear that anyone has new information to add. This whole thing has gotten really silly.

I hate getting into these things and I will not sift through rights and wrongs. It really is time to move on.

Thanx

sorry Jamie, but i still believe he owes both AruggeRadio and Skeeter Muppet an apology. what he said was rude, and inconsiderate, and they deserve at least that much.

I hear what you are saying, but sorting out rights and wrongs just doesn't look productive at this point. People seldom get the apologies they feel they are owed. It's an unfortunate fact of life. It's best if we just all move on from here.

Personally I think that's the big problem for some people...actually two big problems...

But nevertheless, I will move on. Besides, I lost all iota of respect for you-know-who a LONG time ago.

No Sly was in a hardcore porno. Showing his genitals and also having sex on film, trust me I saw the film in college. If you want to confirm it I'm sure you can find a copy of it on ebay.

You stated in your earlier post that we have forgotten what henson gave us, or we don't get what henson gave us. On the contrary I live my life by the teachings of Jim Henson. He tough us to love our brother and sister, each one is different and the same. That we all have to live together to make our society succeeded.

The thing is in these posts regarding Snoop Dogg, you along with Patty E have not only shown yourself to be a raciest, but also disrespectful of the others people that post on this board. Just because we don't see things the way you do that I must be on drugs, or Luke is an idiot, Or Skeeter is childish. The only person I see acting that way is yourself. Heck I posted right before I went to bed 8 hours ago, and low and behold there is like 6 new from you. What do you do just press the refresh bottom over and over?

The point I was trying to make is rather you like it or not Snoop Dogg along with Dr. Dre and others furthered the art of Hip Hop music to another plateau. To be honest I'm not a huge fan of Snoop Dogg, I only own his first 2 records. But I still appreciate what he has done and understand because I take two seconds to listen to the meaning in something to understand that he is talking about a lot more then just glorifying gang banging. But i must be on drugs to see that, sense thats such elementary school rib. As an artist myself I get tired of hear of people that want to block art just because they think it may be morally objectionable for there pore kids. Instead of doing there job as a parent and actually parenting there kids they look for an easy way out. Which I find hypocritical, and I find yourself to be a hypocrite.

wow!! i've been gone for two days and people go crazy. j/k. anyways, sidcrowe, i read through your posts and i think its you who is missing the point. this thread started off by a person making a statement about how horrible snoop was, accompanied by a letter to mr. rivkin saying how irresponsible the jim henson company was for allowing such a disturbing human being on the christmas show. i don't think all of the people that have been posting here on this thread are condoning his actions. i think what most of us are trying to get through to some people is the simple fact that a group of people should not decide what is and is not right for the rest of the population to watch or listen to.

The "chum" stands for "Cannibalistic Humanoid Underground Moron."

I wasn't crying about anything. I was trying--in vain--to be an example to you.

The only example you admire is the example of a whining, cowardly lump of excrement called Snoop, who joined with other degenerate scumbags who kill others for sport.

Not a bad word to say about Snoop, ANYWHERE, huh?

Typical :embarrassed:

What a fitting experiment. A bunch of people who will not look through all the lies and hype and wrestle with the reality of urban killer gangs. This, in microcosm, is the reason why gangs are allowed to flourish. There is no will within you to eliminate them.

Folks like you always see the light...just as the bullet flies into your head.

Let the scummy Snoop find somewhere else to rework his contrived public persona.

Snoop does his best work in the same place where your mind is: in the GARBAGE pail of the editing room.

When that special airs, you'll be steaming, and thinking of me.

I'll be thinking of you, and laughing.

(now, it's off to my JOB...adios for the next 11 hours or so. Talk amongst yourselves, and maybe form a Snoop appreciation society. Don't forget there are still Crips and Bloods around. Go out and find some, and talk Muppets with them. Best of luck to you all with that)

No, you see, the Crips were ACTIVELY killing, and Snoop thought: "that's for me."

****************

Really? Is this true? Did Snoop Dogg actually say this? Could find me an interview or press kit or somethin' where he said this? I don't remember Snoop or any gang member joining so that they could kill.

Exactly! Henson IS counterculture!
