The God and the Infidel Knee-jerk reaction to a song most people haven't even heard yet, "Let's string that sommabitch up". Not that Steve Earle doesn't relish controversy. Interesting thing is that a similar thing happened to Springsteen in 2000 with American Skin (41 Shots). He's performed the song on his current tour and still gets occasional boos (as opposed to Bruuuces). Link valid through 9/3/2002.

Sorry ... but I do think adds some insight comparing the two approaches / reactions nonetheless.

If you ran the search for a previous post, then include a link to that discussion and point out what your link adds to the original thread. Just a friendly suggestion....
