Ice-T will perform at Rec Hall this Sunday. The Fraternal Order of Police, Bald Eagle Lodge 51, wants no one to hear Ice-T's musical message. Both sides have legitimate complaints. The police have every right to speak out about Ice-T's album if it offends them. And Ice-T deserves the right to sing his lyrics, regardless of whom the words might offend.
Freedom of speech allows each faction to protest.
But this bickering will solve neither side's problems. Neither faction needs to harass the other. Stand your ground with conviction, but realize yours is only one opinion. Division will do nothing to solve the problem.
