Liberals Threaten Blind Opera Singer, Forces him to cancel Performance

The 'Tolerant' Left Strikes Again....

You're ok as long as you agree with them, but of you don't they go after you.

Andrea Bocelli Backs Out Of Performing At Donald Trump’s Inauguration After Backlash

"Despite the rumors that no celebrities wanted to perform at his inauguration, the president-elect reportedly personally approached the blind Italian singer, who originally accepted. Now he has changed his mind.

“Bocelli said there was no way he’d take the gig,” a source told Page Six. “He was ‘getting too much heat’ and he said no.”


Bocelli is not a Hillary or Trump supporter - he was going to be doing a paid gig - that's it. He has received so much 'heat' and threats now that he refuses to perform.

Isn't this a little like the florist or the bakers who refused to provide a service to a customer due to bias / prejudice? Libs want businesses to provide their services to homosexuals but want to threaten and bully other business providers into not serving people they choose based on personal / political prejudice.

Hypocrisy 'rides' again....

The left firmly believes in mob rule

 

[EvilCat Breath]

Frightening isn't it, that these kinds of threats get anywhere.

 

[WillowTree]

Then they whine about intimidation. Now you know what " projection" is all about.

 

[easyt65]

This goes back to one of my beliefs - liberals are extremely bitter and unhappy unless they control everything, so they have to ensure everyone is just as unhappy. The vast majority of those who threatened the singer were never going to be at the ceremony / to hear him sing. Still, because they hate Trump so much and everyone who supports him they are willing to intimidate the singer, get him to back out, and ruin the event for everyone else.

Bravo, oh tolerant snowflakes.

The vast majority of the left on this board strike me as no better than those who threaten their opponents.
Because these folks here are worthless debaters who lack courage and honesty.

And that's all you want to "debate".

 

[easyt65]

If you have ever see nor heard Andrea Bocelli sing then you have truly been blessed. It is a shame that such an incredible God-given talent has been silenced due to partisan hatred.

Oddly, you were overlooked.

Cool. But not "Home on the Range" --- and we need more than a harmonica.

He wasn't silenced, he passed on a gig he had no real urge to do.

Conservatives chose not to support / follow them. Conservatives never called them and threatened them if they chose to play any specific concerts. Big difference.

Sounds like the free market has spoken. When everybody said they hated Classic Coke, the company quit making it. When everybody said thy hate Trump, Bocelli said he wouldn't sing for him. Isn't that how the free market works?

Yep

No, they called the radio stations and threatened them if they played any of their songs. They did the same for any venues where The Dixie Chicks were scheduled to play.

Have you ever heard the guy sing!?!

One of the most beautiful voices to be heard, but maybe you like skanks that screech instead... Oh and I did not support the right when the Dixie Chicks were treated like shit, but let remember the Opera Singer did not voice any opinion that caused some form of backlash either like the lead sing of the Dixie Chicks did...

 

[easyt65]

Sounds like the free market has spoken.

Choosing passively not to financially support a business for doing something is one thing - actively calling that business or artist up and threatening them is a different matter.

Side Note:
Why does the govt have to step in and force a bakery to go against their religious beliefs and force them to serve a homosexual couple, when there are so many other bakeries willing to serve them? Why not just let the 'free market' deal with them? People who are offended / disagree with them would not patron their business any more...but that isn't good enough. They have to be 'punished' by the government?!

Should AB be 'punished' for refusing to 'serve' someone because of political prejudices?
