Country music as well as radio stations in general still don't play their music much anymore and because of Natalie's stupid little antics last night, radio will be playing them even less. It's really too bad she never learned how to be a lady. It's just a shame, because I had enjoyed some of their music in the past.

Free Speech caries some downside. If you say something someone or some group of people don't like, they may react.
The real problem is if government decides what you can say or not say. The United States has had this problem in the past (Lincoln suspending individual rights in 1860; the infamous sedition act of Wilson in 1918). The Dixie Chicks weren't outlawed; they just pissed off the wrong people who just happened to be their base. They are "country" and most country fans are conservatives and take offence with any criticism.

The same thing happened to The Beatles back in 1966, when John Lennon observed that they were "more popular than Jesus".
