Oh, good lord. People are not "too polite" nor "scared" to rap about their
moms smoking pot or songs about why you should or should not nail drunk
sluts at frat parties. Most people just don't _want_ to talk about these
things, because they realize it's quite _stupid_.

And, by the way, Rage Against the Machine basically is a frat boy kegger
jam. You're kidding yourself with this dangerous nonsense.
