Ah, so if it's a quote, it doesn't matter, because even though you've decided when to use them, they're not "your words"

Thanks, going to publish press releases with Cannibal Corpse lyrics going forward.

So, he "re-tweeted" Tupac but does not endorse it? :)

There might be a reason the Tupac reference didn't exactly come through.

Perhaps because he replaced all the people Tupac wished dead in his rap song with the names of SF politicians.

In the spirit of Tran's excuse, I only wish that his words were taken as seriously as Tupac's when it comes to consequences for saying them.
