It's time to put an end to songs that call for violent treatment of women. The lyrics to the Beatles' "Run For Yoir Life" says it all:
"Well I'd rather see you dead, little girl
Than to be with another man
You better keep your head, little girl
Or I won't know where I am
You better run for your life if you can, little girl
Hide your head in the sand little girl
Catch you with another man
That's the end'a little girl"
As you can see,
the song is about a man threatening to actually kill a woman if he finds her with another man. Why should we allow such a song to taint our airwaves by promoting violence toward women? The Beatles are one of the greatest and most influential bands in history. Thus, the power of their message carries a lot of weight.
I urge you to sign this petition, contact radio stations and demand that the Beatles be banned. Join me and together let's end songs that promote violence towards women.
