Social critic: The whole debate over the legal right of rock singers to utter violent lyrics misses the point  Legally, there is very little that may not be said  But not everything that may legally be said, ought to be said  Granted, violence predates the rise in popularity of such music
Yet words also have the power to change the way we see and the way we act
Stopping the production of rock music that contains violent lyrics would eliminate much of the violence within society.
