This is the land of the free with protected free speach, the problem is too many people are interpreting the right to free speach as the right to be an ass. I scrolled past the meme as simply non funny at first. But as someone has come along and pointed our a personal issue with the meme, and severl other people have posted that it's simply not funny. The decent human thing to do is quietly remove it, preferably with a little sorry note. Instead the OP is doubling down and implying snowflakiness on the part of those who are upset. When did free speach turn into the right to just be an obstinante jerk in the face of the vast majority saying it's not cool? Is it the OP's right to have posted it? Yes, unless the sight owners take it down, which is absolutly their right. Is it cool to leave it up after several posts explaining why it's inapropriate? No, it's not cool, and it's even less cool to try and defend it by criticizing those who've politly pointed out issues with dog poop memes.
To the OP, please note, we all step over the line at times. I have here in the past, normally with politics. But I belive that every time I have, I've come back and posted an appology after the fact.
You know I'm not the one that posted it right? The OP has not "doubled down" as they have not replied at all. Before you get on the high horse, make sure you actually comprehend what you're complaining about.

YOu're right. I kind of skimmed over who posted what when. I was wrong and I apologies.

A truly great artist defies neat categorization, and their music appeals to a broader audience. John Denver was one of those artists.
