"I paid my own hard earned money for this CD and these concert ticket, but damn that women said she didn't like President McCheese, so I'm gonna tear them up.....oh, what, I can't get my money back if they're torn up?"
Funny protesters. Not only do the Dixie Chicks get the loot from the tickets and CD already sold, when 2 months from now when the media has moved onto the new "contraversy" these jabroni's will have to buy the CD's a new...and give the chicks more money. Funny, funny, protesters.
And it wasn't the Oscars that did away with the glitzy stars entrance after 9/11, it was the Emmy's.

It's funny...last nite I accidentally taped Punk'd on MTV so I decided to watch it..
The first victim was Frankie Muniz. They arranged it to look as if someone stole his $200,000 Porche from the valet.
That's NOT a typo. He's 16 and he owns a $200,000 Porche. Ashton himself said that it was ridiculous and when he was 16 he owned a 1986 baby blue Ford Escort.
The second one was Justin Timberlake. The scam on him was unpaid taxes. $900,000 I think. While the "IRS Agent" was going down a list of Justin's assets, they listed something like 10 cars, 4 Harleys, 3 houses, etc..
That is wrong on SO MANY LEVELS..
This is one of the things that bothered me about the 9/11 telethon..these people make more money than most small third world nations..and they have the NERVE to ask US to donate???
WRONG.
Things were supposed to be different after 9.11..people were supposed to reevaluate what was important and what wasn't..
Guess not..

As for the dixie chick protesting. I find it funny aswell clemente, You already gave them your money and you are going to destroy the items because of their view on the matter? Stupidity. Now I see why Munez has money and the rest of the public has pissed their own cash flow away... burning their own items.
Now as for the Oscar's. You have to realize that it is a target to do the red carpet. One terrorist can take out a couple of stars and make that much of a statement on the culture of los angeles and since films are the voice of our entertainment, a symbol of our culture.
