SIMPLE MINDS

It’s nice that Simple Minds is doing that thing for Amnesty, but Jim Kerr should get off his high and mighty trip and stop putting down people like Prince who bum “around in a jockstrap” (“Simple Minds Makes a Pitch for Amnesty,” by Chris Willman, April 13).

So what if he does? Does it make him less of a person just because he likes to wear funky clothes? That’s pretty sad discriminating against people who dress different. It shows how simple-minded he really is.
