Dear Mr. Man .. take all the GUNS away
When Prince did his Piano and Microphone at Paisley Park this year ... He did " Dear Mr Man " and he sang about " taking all the guns away "
I have really lost alot respect for him for that ...
but " to each his OWN "
I love to hunt ... I severd in the US ARMY for 20 years .. I love guns but I dont over do the love for them..
I will never ever trust the US Government to proctect me and my loved ones ... The RIGHT TO BARE ARMS
Just like to hear a diffrent take on this from the org family

I agree with you. But frankly, I think the mods will lock this thread because it's a political issue, even though Prince mentioned it. He doesn't have the best political views when it comes to things like this. He's been listening too much to the media, I think ”The people that will end up defining ‘Hate Speech Laws’ are the very people you don’t want to define the Hate Speech Laws” — Jordan B Peterson | |

Or statistics, perhaps? Always cry 4 love, never cry 4 pain. | |

Remember when Prince was Bob George? Or, when he was 'gansta' in the early 90's with that pistol microphone telling Tony to 'shoot that piece of sh*t'? He should practice what he preaches... "I like to watch." | |

Of course, people should remain the same person they were 25 years ago. Always cry 4 love, never cry 4 pain. | |

Just sayin'. When it fits his narrative, it's all good. "I like to watch." | |

What on earth are u still doing there. Talk about behind the times. The real old western cowboys who think they're wild. It's nuts. And you call this "the land of the free?" Man man man. They better lock this thread soon.

Listening too much to the media? The NRA doctrine has really got to you right? Like Bluegangsta mentioned, check the statistics. Gun control would be a very good idea for the US. And well... If you really want to drag Prince into this for his point of view on this, check the cover of the Controversy album (35 years ago). | |

I agree with this guy
as for Prince's stance on guns . . I don't trust a guy who lives in his own (arguably reclusive) world by his own standards to make decisions on how to run society. He's simply not someone who has any credibility in that capacity. Does Prince know the price of a gallon of milk? | |

I will never understand laws that let you own devices designed to hurt other people. Nor people who love to hunt.
But let's discuss music here at this place.. | |

It's his stance, his utopian view. The world would be better without guns imo. I don't think all the guns will ever be taken away though, it's just not realistic in any way shape or form, I wish it were though. I think guns are ok, but they're designed to do one thing: KILL | |

Exactly. So we should make a general rule from an exceptional (and unlikely) case. Always cry 4 love, never cry 4 pain. | |

Funny it's that line that offends you about the song.
For me, it's "ain't no sense in voting".
BTW, I do think it would be wonderful if we could take as many guns away as possible and limit it to law enforcement, the military and lawful hunting. If that could be achieved, there would be far fewer gun-related tragedies. | |

- Yes. That line got me too. - @Babynoz: I hear you. That's of course the cultural stereotype description. You have to admit, a lot of Amercicans really think like that when it comes to gun control. Seen the weirdest of stuff online. It's scary man. The ignorance and the guns. - Never associated Yahoo though. We in EU think more, coco-cola, hamburgers, movies, bling bling and incessant loud speech. - Russell Peters is brilliant in sterotypes. He's Canadian/Indian!

I'd rather not see bare guns, if you pleases... "Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination and life to everything." --Plato
