well now, it's not nearly as equal-weighted as you make out here.

the opinions getting expressed about them are in the form of death threats.

if they had expressed such an opinion of Mr Bush I think it would have been a one way ticket into federal detention.

If they're getting death threats, they should report it to the police. That's a crime.

If they're getting criticized, that's America, and they should suck it up. Wusses.

you're right: this is America. so they should be able to say what they want, becuase they are Americans, without fear for their physical safety. this isn't them criticizing the President and their fans criticizing back. this is them stating a political opinion and people feeling free to threaten their well-being and vandalizing their property.

Chicks Received Death Threats

...as far as I am concerned, the fact that I no longer can say what I want without fearing for my physical safety or loss of physical liberty is one of the reasons I really don't like Bush.

Whoa whoa whoa. Bush made death threats against them? That changes everything! Forget what I said, then.
