    "Poetic license" allows a LOT of music (especially in TODAY'S society) to take liberties , one can HOPE, in a satirical fashion and be enjoyed for just that same content that makes it controversial.

    Singing or writing about something does not make the artist guilty of promoting the activity mentioned therein.
