Elton John Wants The Inernet Shut Down

**Tree** · August 3rd, 2007, 17:26

The outspoken Sir Elton John, apparently feeling the pinch of declining album sales, has called for the internet to be shut down.

"Hopefully the next movement in music will tear down the internet," British newspaper The Sun quoted him as saying.

Sir Elton said the internet had "stopped people from going out and being with each other, creating stuff", and it compelled them to "sit at home and make their own records, which is sometimes OK but it doesn't bode well for long-term artistic vision".

Sir Elton confessed he was a "luddite" who did not have a mobile phone or an iPod, and wrote all his music at the piano.

I personally reckon that the gays should not be granted internet access, this case being the perfect justification for it.

Yes. The internet is only meant for heterosexual men and naked women.

So lets say somebody was homosexually orientated, And just because they were born liking the same sex, They should be banned from things? I don't think so. Anyway, Tree is right about one thing, The internet and naked women go together perfectly
