Baron Bodissey puts out a warning at Gates of Vienna: Changing the Subject.

I’m simply concerned about the fact that posts having nothing to do with race are turned into heated arguments about race.

This is doing damage to our blog.

I write the music I like. If other people like it, fine, they can go buy the albums. And if they don't like it, there's always Michael Jackson for them to listen to. -- Frank was talking about his music from the Yellow Shark.
