42. Seriously though,

Edited on Sat Jan-29-05 08:54 PM by eyepaddle

While it probably isn't for everybody, most people can separate discussion of a topic from advocacy for a topic. The Murder Ballad is a deeply entrenched folk (can I use the word "idiom" here?)....style. I am pretty sure most people who like "Pretty Polly" aren't in favor of murder.

on edit: punctuation goof--sorry.
