Gerard & Lyn-z JFK photo...too controversial?

Posted 7 mos ago by fireatwill803

I know everyone's probably heard enough of this by now, but I wanted to see what percentage of people were okay with it and people who weren't...
For those who haven't seen it, you can go to Lindsey's twitter account to see it (http://www.twitter.com/lynzway) or find it on buzznet. It was recently a 'hot topic' on the front page.

I think you're probably right pretty much (:
	prettyxinxyourxpain: 09/03/2009 8:59 AM I can see where people would be offended but i mean it's actually a beautiful picture. It might not have been a great judgement call on the basis of respect, but i think it's poetic in a way. I hadn't hought of the JFK assasination since we studied it in school 4 years ago, but the moment I saw this picture it reminded me. I'm kind of thankful for it because I'd forgotten. And it makes some people want to learn about the historic tragedy that inspired this photo. But I'm not entirely okay with this picture being used for a comic book promo. So that's where my support kinda ends. But I love the photo in general. I'm not offended. Anyone think it's odd that in 'My Way Home is Through You' he says "...don't give a f*** about a Kennedy?" Just sayin'.
