Segway in Rap-Music Video

[FotoPlasma]

You want to know what I think is bad for kids? People who think that they know everything about what is and is not good for kids.

I thought this video was hilarious, and very good publicity for Segway. Yes, good publicity. I think that there is, in fact, bad publicity. When a company's product scrapes some pavement, causing sparks which ignite some storage tank of volatile chemicals, instantly causing an explosion killing a nice suburban family and their dog, who were on their way to grandmother's house, and the company whose product this was is found to be criminally negligent in the production and quality and safety assurance of the product, that, my friend, is bad publicity. (A gross overdramatization of something like the Firestone / Bridgestone fiasco of a few years ago. That was really bad publicity for them.)

Someone oughta call General Motors and tell them that their vehicles (the world famous Hummer H2s and Chevy Suburbans) are being used in immoral and offensive rap videos. We need to get these Evil-Doers corporate sponsorships and transportation taken away!

/me cuts through the sarcasm with a knife.

On the other hand, I'm just as evil because I listen to rap music. Don't listen to me.

<edit>
After listening to that song again, I'd like to quote it:
"We like to party. Don't cause trouble, and we don't bother nobody."
"Get on the floor, shake something shorty, and back it up. Don't hurt nobody."

Those are some of the most inoffensive lyrics I could possibly think of. I don't think this video promotes anything immoral, unless you consider hanging out with friends and having fun immoral. And honestly, who hasn't had torrid fantasies about meter maids?
