Yes. If they agree with the politics involved, there's no reason not
to. *Personally* I find Mumia and his supporters repugnant and
ignorant (arrogantly so), and because of this shindig, will never buy
another Rage or Beasties CD. It won't make a damn bit of difference to
them, as most of their loyal fans are the MTV "A rock-star said it so
it must be true" set, and will buy any crap they care to burn on a
disc, but I cannot in good conscience support anyone who blindly
supports a cop-killing maniac, just because he's the latest
Holly-weird fad. Mumia widowed a 24 year old girl and deprived a baby
of knowing her father, because he was white, but it's not a hate
crime. And he's not really guilty, he's a victim of the system. Blow
me.
I'll be interested to hear how the police assigned to security detail
at the concert handle it. And how many call in sick that night :)
