I think everyone on this thread is probably taking took much Tren. Stop letting the Tren do the "talking".
There is no need for racist comments on this forum. As Rodney said, " Can't we all just get along?"
Here is my take for what it is worth:
I was not aware of Kid Rock using the "head monkey" reference. I don't know what he means by that. But I will say that I was taken aback when I first read it too. I know Teutonic pretty well and have no reason to think he is racist. He explained the context of his comment and I am certainly willing to accept his answer. I dont believe he was being racist. 'Ology welcomes everyone here and Teutonic embodies what 'Ology is.
I think it was fine for Onk to question T's statement. Like him, I did not know it was from a song. Surely one can see how calling Obama a monkey can be interpreted as a racist statement. And Onk doesn't need to be an American to comment on our politics. In my travels, I have often found that people from other countries often know more about America's actions in the world than Americans themselves know.
So let's all go back to lifting heavy things please.
