It's funny how differently we see things. I see these artists not as "hiding
behind the First Amendment," but insted standing on the shoulders of the giants
who made the First Amendment so and proudly declaring their work in the Land Of
The (mostly/often) Free.
Even when I don't like the work, it's nice to live in a place and time where
people are allowed to challenge norms!
But I agree you shouldn't be a forced patron.
