He’s got no clue how good he has it

Re “Eminem Swipes at Bush,” by Geoff Boucher, Oct. 28: I can only say this for Eminem and other talented individuals who claim that America is a police state, etc.: The fact that they are even allowed to openly make such claims on the airwaves and then sell their recordings on an open market proves that this is not the case. If Eminem, et al., were truly on the money, they would be in a forced labor camp, a mental reconditioning center, or just plain dead.

They strike me as spoiled children who have no clue just how good they have it and how bad things could really be. So go ahead: Talk big, attract attention and make your money. But don’t forget to count your blessings and honor the land you’re standing on. You wouldn’t be allowed to do what you’re doing so easily anywhere else.
