IN the US the rhetoric is always rights-based.. no one ever talks about responsibilities, this leads to a danger of society becoming ego-centric and insensitive, and leads to things like this song. Serrano is a great artist, but the statements he makes in his art are ambiguous (as most art is). Serrano himself is a Christian and there are countless non-offensive ways to interpret Piss Christ... which are probably closer to the artist's true intentions. When someone says "i'm gonna shoot me some n*****s" they have overstepped the mark. There is no unoffensive interpretation. It is sheer senseless hate against a particular race.
The concept of justice isn't just about rights, it's also about community standards, and if a statement is so outrageously offensive and disrespectful that it causes a huge outcry from the community, then there have to be repercussions and the people responsible have to face the music.
