11383, you just don't get it

This isn't a matter of him "not appluading" homosexuality, it's a matter of him talking about it in a venomous, disrespectful way. Just the way he spits the word out, you can hear the hatred behind it. If you "don't want to appluad the gay lifestyle" well fine, don't mention it in your raps. But if you're gonna go outta your way to use a word that, to gay people, is the equivalent of the n-word, you've got a problem that you're not dealing with. Ask yourself, why does he feel the need to do that? You seem to think Common should be applauded for not being afraid to "speak his mind" and display his homophobia and ignorance.
