F*ck Cat Stevens

Seriously f*ck Cat Stevens. No one remembers his comments against Salman Rushdie in 1989.

And I quote: "Yusuf Islam (Stevens) publicly stated that Rushdie was indeed guilty of blasphemy against Islam, and Rushdie deserved to be killed. This led to a public outcry, and a drop in record sales. In response to this criticism, Yusuf Islam has since clarified that he believes that a death sentence can only be carried out by the authority of a court in an Islamic society, and that he is opposed to anyone taking the law into their own hands by murdering Rushdie."

And now Britian is giving him awards? WTF?
