in very brutal fashion and stop exercising their freedom of speech soon after.

It's art, it's subjective, and it's no one's business if someone else likes him. I don't know his politics.

As for me, I think he has an obvious skill and and interesting technique which might be more charming if it wasn't so over-produced. It's not really my style. His pictures don't disgust or anger me, as they seem to do to some people. They just don't hold my attention for very long. Gotta hand it to him--he's a brilliant marketer.

I just read the Wikipedia entry on him. Sounds like he's more fun when he's drinking.
