    Interesting that they brought in a creepy, serial groper to introduce that particular Lady Gaga song.

    No; haven't been to a theater in over 30 years. But now, more than ever, I would not support this group of self-indulgent flunkies.

    If you watch them on TV, on Demand, Netflix, HBO, showtime, rentals or DVD/bluray, you are still supporting them and giving them the money.

    I missed this event in order to watch really bad B1G basketball (what else can you call Illinois-Minnesota?), so I've done a fair job of avoiding the outrage, the outrage over the outrage and other forms of stupidity.

    Most intelligent blacks don't give a fuck about these award shows. They speak out about this broken line of logic but we know that doesn't get ratings.

    Sad thing is... not one single fuck is given about this demographic either. The media knows that the money is in the poors (of all races).

    So, you do support them, despite your attempt at not doing so, and response of extreme sarcasm

    No; I don't. Perhaps re-reading all the posts will be of assistance.
