In all fairness, at the time those people were dying, she probably would not have had the freedom to sing in that venue. I do understand what you are saying though, and I do think she may have learned a lesson in all of this. I am just saying that I would not be surprised to find out that she is genuinely surprised at the depth of the negative response she received.
I guess I need to be careful that some don't begin to see me as a militant radical myself. I just tend to be more measured in my reaction to things and try to dig for the possible explanations.
