This is an interesting, yet "old" discussion. I usually don't bother with any discussion unless the person who brought it up says exactly what he/she is talking about. Pzrite didn't do that, at least initially. The problem I have with Legume is that he doesn't really seem to care about anyone who opposes him. That is why he sends IM messages saying F*ck you, and gets really hostile when he is opposed. Here is a good quote from Legume's own words. In this example, Legume doesn't even signify any value in the opposing opinion.: "So, what you're saying is that it's wrong to depict Hitler AT ALL, even if it's in a ridiculous pinup where he's holding an armadillo? It's wrong to RIDICULE him? You condemn artwork that MAKES FUN OF HITLER? Now who's a Nazi? "I agree many people these days are oversensitive to what is not politically correct." Yes, that's true, and you are a prime example. You want to know what that 'free speech BS' is? That's any speech that YOU disagree with. I'm going to waste my time here and address your initial post once again. I want you to explain to me in exact terms, how my images depict HATE of Christians, Jews, or Gays. Never mind, DON'T BOTHER. In fact, why don't you just shut the hell up? Oh, wait, I forgot, you have FREEDOM OF SPEECH, don't you?" ***** Oh my god, this is the person who was voted Artist Of the Month?! I thought that title would go to someone who has some amount of respect for this artistic community. That includes people who might have differing opinions. Ron
