Swainton - Shame on Flyers for removing Kate Smith's statue. What did Kate Smith do but utter a couple of questionable lyrics 90 years ago? Does anyone remember the "Amos 'n' Andy Show?" In the 1930s there were actually protests denouncing their radio show for its lower-class characterization and "crude, repetitious and moronic" dialogue, yet the show continued on radio for over 20 years. How about "All in the Family" or "The Jeffersons?" Should Norman Lear be deported from this country for his shows? Shame on the Flyers for their double standard.
