TH had some more to say about Nugent

The TH had a bit more to say this morning about Nugent.

It was bad enough that rock musician Ted Nugent made racially insensitive remarks on stage last week in Dubuque. What made it worse was that audience members cheered.

Anybody who thinks racism is in Dubuque's past had better think again.

Nugent commented approvingly that he saw so many white people in the audience. He commended Dubuque for being a "white town." The crowd -- not just a few fans here and there -- cheered. (That is not to say that everyone in the audience was a Dubuque resident and that everyone cheered. But no expression of disapproval was heard, either; hopefully, some were too shocked to respond.)

1. So Nugget, er Nugent plays casinos now?

The ididot can't sell out arenas, or even come close so he is playing casinos. And more people are seeing him for what he is, a chickenhawk pos who is all talk and no action. That is troubling though, that people cheered at his insane remark. The fuckin' idiot should have been booed off the stage and told to never come back.

2. In addition to being a racist comment, it seems rather self evident

Wouldn't pretty much all of his "concerts" be mostly white?

I frankly don't know anyone that likes him, but I think I'd have an even harder time finding someone of color that would pay to see/hear him.

3. Gee racial insensitivity from a known pedophile
