You brought up a great point. Where are all the songs like CSN & Y's "Ohio"? Or maybe it is because nowadays dissent is being painted as treason and unpatriotic. When for the life of me, I can't understand how the right has turned the practice of First Amendment freedoms into something dirty.
And for reference, just look at what happened to Bill Maher and his blatherings about bombs.
Are there any bands out there willing to take this risk anymore?
