this prince character is not only anti gay marriage, he wants gays dead. and all democrats.

[meow mix]

its pretty obvious from this type of statement he believes gay is a crime punishable by death.

"The singer told The New Yorkerthat he disagreed with a liberal "Democrat" view of life, pointing to gay marriage as something condoned by the party that he disagreed with because it clashed with the teachings of the Bible.

"God came to Earth and saw people sticking it wherever and doing it with whatever, and he just cleared it all out," he said. "He was, like, 'Enough.' "

"Enough"
means you forfeit your life.
and he supports that.
it appears that he believes all democrats should die..whatever thier orientation.

these people need to learn how to think.. and they are dangerous. palin-drones who would like to see us burning at the stake, for real.

[Ecumenist]

1. Which Prince? I tried your link but it seems to be a bad one.

[meow mix]

2. sorry... its just Prince. he's an "entertainer"

[Genevieve]

3. This one:

[GoneOffShore]

5. the Artist Formerly Known As Prince

Bit of a wanker actually.

Read the piece in the New Yorker and he comes across as crazy as Victoria Jackson.

[wtmusic]

22. People started calling him TAFKAP as an acronym and it irritated him

so now he's Prince again.

If you ever run into him, be sure to call him Tafkap. :evilgrin:

[Kindigger]

4. I'll reserve judgment

until I'm sure he really said this. If he did, then I will delete 'Purple Rain' from my Mp3 player.

[bluedawg12]

38. Exactly! This is what he said, full original article:

[walldude]

6. Prince is making judgements about others sex lives?

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: Who does he think he's kidding?

[Ecumenist]

10. I just commented on that point on another prince thread..

This guy is one of the singularly most sexually twisted folks on the planet and he has the nerve to make this statement? If anyone else remembers, this guy actually sang about a incestuous relationship with his sister. Talk about hypocrisy. He also wears more make up than I won and I am a female drag queen... If it glitters and is gorgeous, I love it. Pitiful

[Deja Q]

15. "Who does he think he's kidding?"

Himself?

[walldude]

24. Probably not even him....

After becoming a roadie I did one show for him awhile back and will never do another one. You know those stories you hear about not being allowed to look a performer in the eye? I thought they were all bullshit till I did a Prince show.

[patrice]

7. another blasphemer - maybe whenever you get famous, you forget who's God and who isn't.

[caty]

8. All these years

I thought Prince was gay. The hair. The outfits. The heels. I thought it was his own personal business. Just like everyone's sexual preferences are their own personal business. :shrug:

I don't understand how we can be in the year 2008 and still have people thinking that way. The arrogance and selfishness just seems to get worse every year. Hopefully Obama's many years as president will turn a lot of these people around.

[Ikonoklast]

9. If the day ever comes that I give a care about what some dimwit

so-called 'celebrity' or 'entertainer', either on the right or left, has to say on any subject, I hope that someone slaps me silly.

More mindless drivel from people that are usually not very well educated or read, but can memorize lines, carry a tune, or play a musical instrument competently.

Sometimes not even very well at that.

Their opinions of things, both great and small, mean less than nothing to me than the barking of dogs.

[Sarah Ibarruri]

11. Didn't Prince convert a few years ago and became a Bible-banger? nt

[Taverner]

12. Yep - Jehovas Witness

Of course, the veracity of these quotes has been called into question

[Deja Q]

16. He bangs bibles? Wow. I hope he wears protection; when paper gets wet it gets ruined.

:yoiks:

[Sarah Ibarruri]

21. :-P nt

[Dogmudgeon]

13. It may have been a sham interview, too

I don't give a lot of weight to the opinions of entertainers, and in this case, the interview could have been made up.

If he said it, a boycott is in order. But I'm not going to pencil anything into my schedule either way.

--p!

[Deja Q]

14. Wait, is this the same one that changed his name to that hermaphrodite symbol?

[FKA MNChimpH8R]

17. Prince is and always has been a total asshole

I used to work in a drycleaning shop in the late 1970s. Prince, before he was famous on the national scene, frequented the shop. He categorically refused to talk to me or the other staff. We were beneath him and not worthy of his words. If he brought his then girlfriend in, she did all the talking. She was very nice and apologized for his complete shitheaded egotripping when she came in to pick up his crap.

The worst kept secret in Minneapolis was that Dez Dickerson (who I played in a band with back in 1975) wrote most of "Prince's" material during the era he was the spudhead's lead guitarist. Dez was well compensated, and the material was released under spudhead's authorship credit.

Prince is a fraud and a complete prick.

[JustAnotherGen]

26. Okay

First - I never knew that about Dez. That's very interesting. ;-) I knew that he was involved with Morris Day and the Time - but not that.

I haven't bought a Prince CD in probably 9 years . . . even though others have come out. And if there is any truth in this article - I won't be purchasing another.

Second - I love that we are talking about the artist FKA and now who is FKA the artist and just Prince - and you are know FKA MNChimpH8R. :rofl:

[Occam Bandage]

18. Um...I don't think you can draw a line between

"People were promiscuous and God said 'Enough.'" and "Prince wants all homosexuals and Democrats dead."

[meow mix]

28. You think that when God says "Enough" he just hands you a twinkie and says have a happy day?

no no my friend... far from it.

[Occam Bandage]

30. The belief that God disapproves of behavior is not exactly the same

as the belief that God wants to kill everyone who behaves badly, and that isn't the same as God wants to kill everyone who supports a political party that, among other things, supports the rights of those bad-behaving people. Frankly, I think your logic is even worse than Prince's.

[bluedawg12]

37. When God say's enough was Prince's phrase it was NOT to kill anyone

neither you nor I get to interpret what he meant and interpret it falsely.

[meow mix]

39. "and he just cleared it all out," he said. "He was, like, 'Enough.' ""

really? wow

i guess all these thousands of years of god killing people for thier sins never happened LOL

[rasputin5]

40. But Twinkies are real.

:shrug:

[Greyhound]

19. The "golden halo effect", we see it everywhere and are led astray

because of it, time and again.

[MadMaddie]

20. He is a Jehova Witness another cult as far as I am concerned

who buys his music anymore.

The very people that bought his music and adored him he would like to see them dead.

Screw Prince and others like him.

[brentspeak]

23. The "Prince" formerly known as an artist

[Sinti]

25. Funny, from the subject I thought you were talking about Eric Prince

of Blackwater, and other fame. I learned about Prince the Symbol's weirdness on An Evening with Kevin Smith, the DVD Funny, funny stuff there, if you like that kind of thing. The "news" there IMO is that the Symbol can still make news - incredible.

[bluedawg12]

36. That Prince would have been closer to the truth than this fiction

this thread is about creating chaos.

[JanMichael]

27. Stirring up crap on DU, eh? You forgot to add one VERY important

paragraph from this article:

"However celebrity gossip blog Perezhilton.com refuted the quotes, speaking to a "Prince insider" who called into question the credibility of the interview."

[meow mix]

29. it also says the new yorker stands by the story.. PH vs NY

hard to pick who is more credible. also he is a jehovah witness cultist, hmm...

[bluedawg12]

35. This is bull sh*t! Here is the damned link to the story show me where

he says that.
next time lnk to the primary source.

http://www.newyorker.com/talk/2008/11/24/081124ta_talk_hoffman

[WolverineDG]

31. I said Prince was crazy back in the 80s

Everyone told me he was a genius.

Two decades later, I'm proven right.

[bluedawg12]

32. That's NOT What he said!

>>Soup With Prince
by Claire Hoffman
November 24, 2008
>>Recently, Prince hosted an executive who works for Philip Anschutz, the Christian businessman whose company owns the Staples Center. “We started talking red and blue,” Prince said. “People with money—money like that—are not affected by the stock market, and they’re not freaking out over anything. They’re just watching. So here’s how it is: you’ve got the Republicans, and basically they want to live according to this.” He pointed to a Bible. “But there’s the problem of interpretation, and you’ve got some churches, some people, basically doing things and saying it comes from here, but it doesn’t. And then on the opposite end of the spectrum you’ve got blue, you’ve got the Democrats, and they’re, like, ‘You can do whatever you want.’ Gay marriage, whatever. But neither of them is right.”

When asked about his perspective on social issues—gay marriage, abortion—Prince tapped his Bible and said, “God came to earth and saw people sticking it wherever and doing it with whatever, and he just cleared it all out. He was, like, ‘Enough.’ ” <<

[Warren DeMontague]

33. I was going to comment on what an ass "he" is, but then I remembered he doesn't really have a name.

What a doofus.

[bluedawg12]

34. Prince DID NOT say that in the New Yorker!

Go to the article. Disinformation is worst than no information, it creates chaos.
