While a significant number of famous musicians already have cancelled their upcoming tours to North Carolina over the state’s controversial “bathroom bill” should others follow suit?

When General Electric – the corporation that designed the
Fukushima nuclear power plant and the famous porn-site xHamster is boycotting
your entire state, you know you’ve done something horribly wrong. But this day
and age, an overwhelming majority of us no longer tolerate the discrimination
of the LGBT community – especially if its done though a “manipulated” dogma of
organized religion. And this has resulted in the recent banning of local LGBT
nondiscrimination ordinances.
Since April 2016, there’s a growing list of famous musicians
with a very huge fan-base deciding to cancel their upcoming tours to North
Carolina over the state’s controversial “bathroom bill” that only allows
transgender people to use the bathroom that matches the gender of their birth
certificate. The top three musicians who have decided to cancel their tours
include Bruce Springsteen, Ringo Starr and Bryan Adams and more are set to
follow suit.
The top three musicians who decided to boycott North
Carolina were quite surprising to those old enough to have lived through 1980s Ronald
Reagan’s America because these musicians’ works were – back then – frequently played
in outlaw biker bars that catered for Vietnam War Veterans. Probably the last
on the list back then to give a rat’s ass about LGBT issues. That was then, but
this day and age, even outlaw bikers who are into online hardcore porn and
classic rock – well, most of them anyway – no longer tolerate the government
and religiously sanctioned discrimination of the LGBT community. How the times
have changed indeed.
