Yes, heavy metal music did corrupt youth and spread a bad message!

Harry do you seriously think venues would allow mosh pits if they were so dangerous? That'd be a liability nightmare waiting to happen.

Music venues have a long history of allowing, or even encouraging, lots of dangerous behaviours

I will repeat what I said at the beginning of this thread. The fact that you readily align yourself with folks like tipper Gore and Jerry falwell to try to "prove" The validity of your own narrow musical taste is telling, and frankly just reflective of self absorption of taste cr9ssing the l8ne into narrow mindedness.

First they came for heavy metal music, and I didn't speak up because I'm not a metalhead.
Then they came for the gangsta rap and I didn't speak up because I don't like any rap at all.
Then they came for the mall (not) "emo" and I didn't speak up because it was just stupid poser sh!t anyway.
Then they didn't come for real emo or melodic hardcore because it's really niche stuff that such people were never aware of and thus I never had to worry about my musical tastes coming under threat and I lived happily ever after.
