Through the first amendment in the Constitution of the United States, our right of free expression is protected. Music is a common way for people to express themselves. There is a wide variety of music available today. Not everyone agrees with the messages revealed through diffrent types of music. Even though I do not agree with some of the messages sent through lyrics, I value the freedom of expression.
I strongly believe that people have the right to express themselves freely in public, within the boundaries of the law. I also believe what is right for one person is not necessarily right for another. Who is to judge what kind of music should be publicized when one's standard differs so much from another's. People should be vigilant when choosing music, because it has definite effects.We as individuals should be censors for ourselves, and if we disagree with someone's opinion we should be strong enough to accept it and move on. Acceptance is not sharing someone's opinion but respecting it and not degrading them for what they believe in. Who is to say that Mozart, Marilyn Manson or Tim McGraw is what is best for everyone. Let us be censors for ourselves and respect others to do the same.
