What's funny Grace is that I am not a Prince fan. When he passed I wasn't even aware that he was popular during MY younger years.....I remember my kids listening to him. I knew nothing about the man except what has been put out there after his death. What made me upset was this ridiculous comment by "goodtimesinrv"
"What a bunch of losers, idolizing and worshiping a reclusive, gender-conflicted drug addict by lighting up famous buildings around the world, and even the interior of a Delta Airlines passenger flight, in purple."


Who in the heck is he/she to call fans of anyone losers? And calling Prince a gender-conflicted drug addict? He/she obviously knows nothing about Prince. There are a lot of folks who obviously adored him and "goodtimesinrv" has a problem with anyone liking someone that he doesn't. If he/she simply likes to stir the pot...stir it about something that they know something about.
