With this ~gement,. the College will be able to maintain its Tackles obscenity issue By A. Joel Pinckney Managing Editor SYRACUSE-A· hot issue grew even honer last Monday night as two prominent figures in the debate over music censorship squared off at the Goldsteilf Auditorium on the Syracuse University campus. Beforeacrowdofapproximately 300,JackThompson,aMiarni-basedanti- pomography lawyer who has led the assault on therapgroup2 LiveCrew,met head on with fonner Doors manager Bill Siddons, who was confronted with the issue~f obscenity as early as 196.9 when the Doozs perfonned in Miami. Thompson, who opened the discussion, explained that his effort against 2 Live Crew and their album \As Nasty as They WannaBe\ airned3t stopping the glorification of rape and protecting women.in general. Thompson called Luther Campbell, leaderof2LiveCrew, a \criminal\whose .. toxicwaste\- \Nasty\-only legitirtlm.xl that \women are nothingbu~m~t()Jt the bone.\ SiddOns did. not take kindly to Thompson's wonls. · \It~s tnlbelievablethe spaken word bas~ome such an issue,\ Siddons said \It'S incredible $lt America fears the penis more than the pistol,\ he said, referring to the album's repeated identification of the male genitalia. · Thompson responded by saying that ''Nasty\ was indeed obscene because it met the three criteria established in 1973's Miller v. California. which de- finedobscenity.Thethreecriteriaforfindingsornethingobscenearethatitmust be patently offensive, appeal to prurient interests and lack artistic value. Although Siddons believes itisotfensive,heviewsthealbumasreality. \Rap music is the folk music of the nineties,\ he said. \It's real life.\ And that real lifeSiddons spoke of was life in the black culture, srirnething he admitted being unfamiliar with. ThecellSorshipdebate over music lyrics stems from a Florida judge's ruling in June tllat \Nasty\ was obscene. Consequently, a record-store owner was airestedforsellingthe albwnand three membersof2LiveCrew were arrested for petf()nning \Nasty\ songs at an adults-only concert Both pruties were brought to trial; the store owner was convicted of obscenity while members of the group were acquitted. AcCordingtoThornpson, .. Nasty\hadsold 1.3millicncopiesbefooehebegan his efforts to ban the album. Sales of the album have surpassed Jhe 2 million mruX. . The debate, which was sponsored by the University Union Speakers Board, got tense when m!ID)berS'Of the audience were allowed to addresseitherman. Most of the participants directed questions to Thompson and put him on the defense. One speaker told Thompson to ··oo to Hell.\ Throughout tbe question and answer session Thompson reiterated the fact that maily women in America were being violated in the manner<Jf rape and that \Nasty .. enhanced this type of action. '\The society doesn't take seriously the rape of women,\ he told the crowd. \I thinkAmericaisawakeningto tbe nighttnare of obscenity,\Thornpsoncon- cluded. However, Siddons believes that all Thompson's \sting operation\ has done- isenhancerecordsalesbymakingpeopleawareoftbespokenwordagain.
