Frank Zappa's debates
Not only one of the best musicians of the 20'th century, but a damn good speaker for free speech. I posted this just to showcase how amusing it is to watch him make his opponents run in circles. I wish he was still alive.
This is a well known one, the infamous PMRC hearing in 1985 This other one is on Crossfire in 1986, where he debates mainly John Lofton, one of biggest dumbasses I have ever seen talk. (Sorry, but I couldn't find a vid that had it all in one that had good audio) |

RE: Frank Zappa's debates
Reminds me of the time I played the Velvet Underground's, "I am waiting for my man" and "Heroin" back to back for my children. I was more than a little bit stoned and the wife was away.
Exposure to words does no harm if it is tempered with exposure to consciousness. I will also say I find much of "Rap" offensive in a very violent and misogynistic way. In a marginalized community "Rap" can and does do some serious harm. That is much more subtle and demands a much longer discussion. I will say I love "Fuck Da Police" by NWA. Hey get out there and expose people. That is what words are for. |

Any promise of a postmortem preservation of personal identity is preposterous. (read in Daffy Duck voice) |

Skepticism is not a position; it is an approach to claims. Science is not a subject, but a method. ![[Image: flagstiny%206.gif]](http://www.acbeddoe.com/photos/flagstiny%206.gif)

The debate with Lofton is great.
