as there's a vein of hate running through the schools over him too. A girl in her school is going to see one of his concerts and has been picked on. Mine seemed to be buying into the gang mentality and arguing that it was perfectly natural...ugh, teenagers. At least she's at an age where she still can learn, and still cares about being on the "good" side.

She played me one of his songs on youtube, as I don't know his music. He has a well trained voice, a sweetness and innocence. Why that brings out the worst in some people I don't get either.
