It would have been the same if a city banned Elvis because of his hip gyrations.

You say that as if it never happend?

Presley has already appeared six times on national television, but it is his appearance on The Milton Berle Show on June 5, 1956, that triggers the first controversy of his career. Presley sings his latest single, "Hound Dog," with all the pelvis-shaking intensity his fans scream for. Television critics across the country slam the performance for its "appalling lack of musicality," for its "vulgarity" and "animalism." The Catholic Church takes up the criticism in its weekly organ in a piece headlined "Beware Elvis Presley." Concerns about juvenile delinquency and the changing moral values of the young find a new target in the popular singer.

After Berle's show, Ed Sullivan, whose variety show is one of television's most popular, declares that he will never hire Presley. Steve Allen, who has already booked Presley for The Tonight Show, resists pressure from NBC to cancel the performance, promising he will not allow the singer to offend.

"The Catholic Church takes up the criticism" One can imagine all the pedo-priests getting a hard-on at Elvis' gyrating ass, though.

Remember, idiot preachers in the south organized burnings of Beatles' records.

Yep,right after John Lennon flippantly-but- accurately observed "we're more popular than Jesus". Not just preachers,it was diverse neanderthals of all ages.

PS Last night I was watching a film about the history of a Rock; Elvis looks so TAME. But I guess it needs to be kept in mind that Mr-so-clean-you-could-eat-off- him Pat Boone was doing rock covers.

Wow! Saying 'fuck' in Singapore! A wonder the vulgar twat was not arrested.-this is the country in which chewing gum is banned, there is a (strictly enforced) $500 fine for littering and they cane vandals, as American boy, Michael Fay, found out in 1994. Oh,they also hang drug dealers.

0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

At Queenstown Remand Prison, Gurkha guards in smartly angled broad-brimmed hats stand watch in corner towers. The prison's severe walls are painted a gentle cream and powder blue. At the front gate, uniformed children merrily skip off passing school buses and into the compound. Prison officers' families live in flats on the premises. This jail isn't for hardened criminals.

Since March 31, Queenstown has housed Michael Peter Fay, an American teenager who has arguably become Singapore's most famous -- or notorious -- prison inmate. After pleading guilty to vandalism charges, the 18-year-old student was sentenced March 3 to four months in jail, a $2,200 fine -- and six strokes of the cane. That Singapore flogs vandals was not news. But that the island republic would scourge an American was. The story made headlines worldwide, especially after U.S. President Bill Clinton asked the Singapore government to waive the caning, which he called "excessive."

After losing an appeal against his sentence, Fay asked Singapore's President Ong Teng Cheong for clemency. On May 4, the government announced that the Cabinet had recommended to Ong that Fay's caning be reduced to four strokes as a gesture of respect for the American president. Ong sent a letter conveying the decision to Fay's counsel, Ramanathan Palakrishnan. It was not until about noon the next day that the lanky lawyer went to the prison with two assistants to give his client the news. The legal team was inside for more than an hour. "He was happy that the clemency was considered," said Palakrishnan glumly as reporters swarmed around him afterwards. "He thanked his family and asked them to pray for him. He's nervous." Added lawyer Dominic Nagulendran: "He said to thank President Clinton and President Ong. He is resigned to the caning." Would he be caned tomorrow, an American reporter from Fox TV shouted. "I don't think so," replied Palakrishnan. "But it must be as soon as possible."

Indeed it was. Soon after his lawyers left him, Michael Fay was informed that his caning sentence was to be carried out that afternoon. He was one of ten prisoners flogged that day. In the caning room he was stripped naked. He bent over and his arms and legs were fastened to an H-shaped trestle by straps. A protective covering was placed over his kidneys. A prison official, a medical officer and the caner were the only ones present. The caner wound up and, using his full body weight, struck with the 13mm-thick rattan rod, which had been soaked overnight to prevent it from splitting. Each stroke on Fay's exposed buttocks came about half a minute apart. It was over in minutes. After the fourth and final stroke, say Singapore officials, Fay shook hands with his caner and insisted on walking back to his cell unaided. He wanted to act like a man.

Do you understand context? I said in an earlier post you don't have to like her, but if you value YOUR OWN FREEDOM, we are talking about the government of Indonesia bowing to the threats of theocratic zealots.

The person banned could be anyone for any reason based upon the objection of those nutcases. No one is asking you to like Ga Ga. But you should value the CONCEPT that utopian dickhead fuckwads should not be able to bully others into bowing to their insecurities. ON ANY TOPIC.

Pluralism in the west did not grow by bowing to those who want taboos and use threats to set them up.

It seems to me that this whole issue revolves around the "right" for people to be able to upset and annoy other people as much as they like, claiming that the person upset is the one with the problem. For example, "Hey, if we wanna fuck in the supermarket while waiting in the checkout we will! Its the fucking prudes in the line who got the problem!" attitude. It becomes a matter of where the line is drawn within each society. If american/europeans are quite happy to have semi naked, attention seeking, deliberately provocative halfwits filling a culture void in teenage youth that's fine, but we should respect countries who don't want that.

Difference is that a couple fucking in the supermarket would be forcing their debauchery on others. A concert is an event you can choose to attend. Anybody who doesn't want to see it doesn't have to.
