Born To Run (to the Ladies Room)

"Rocker Bruce Springsteen has cancelled a concert appearance in Greensboro, North Carolina to protest the state's law which segregates bathroom privileges based exclusively on an individual's God-given plumbing rather than their current (and sometimes flexible) gender self-identification. Moreover, in an additional show of solidarity for the "whichever damn bathroom we choose" crowd,  Springsteen has changed the name of his backup group to "The P Street Band.' " . . .

Comment to the article:

"Springsteen is trying to punish the government. He’s only succeeding in hurting the local business, the concert promoter and what few fans he has left and his bottom line*. Not a very smart businessman is he. There are many ways he could have made his point without shooting himself in the foot. I see him as a fool."

*Sorry, but The Boss has many, many fans. We can only hope that not all  like his politics and are as I am: "Shut up and sing!"
However all this tantrum belies Bruce's constant tributes to the working people he sings about.  TD
