    Political views such as: “murdering Palestinian journalists to cover up war crimes is itself a war crime and wrong” should have no place in the apolitical atmosphere of music. These comments, in fact, have “caused offence and distress” to me and my entire family, and, though we held a ceremony to burn the tickets we purchased in a gas fire, it was not until the concert was cancelled and Melbourne Symphony Orchestra “offer[ed] a sincere apology” that we were fully able to mentally recover (though, of course, the wound still lingers). My wife nearly died (due to the distress, of course) when she heard the news, so I do hope MSO will be paying for her cosmetic surgery.

    All in all, it seems common sense that background checks are necessary to make sure the music played by this orchestra is either meaningless drivel or based upon apolitical themes such as flowers or Star Wars, so that we all may enjoy the tunes without divisions being sown between us, pro and anti murder alike!
