: I don't mind that people don't care for their music, but you have to give credit where credit is due. They are responsible for the rock music (and others) that we hear today. Various artists list them as a major influence in their lives (Ozzy, Rob Zombie, Chuck D from Public Enemy, etc.). In fact, they are my favorite group and always will be.
: To truly "hate" them, is to be truly ignorant of what impact they have had. Besides their musical contributions, together & individually, most of them have lent their hands to causes they feel strongly about. If you don't think they mattered to the people of this world, then watch footage of the Central Park gathering after Lennon was shot.
: I wouldn't have gave a damn if you just said "I don't like their music" but to "hate" them?
