Doing The Most: Did These Music Videos Go Too Far?

MIA: Born Free
Granted, gingers get lots of jokes hurled their way, but MIA’s ‘Born Free’ took it above and beyond some juvenile insults. Granted, MIA is certainly one for controversy, but this video may have pushed things a little too far over the edge. Military personnel are seen rounding up red heads only to take them to a deserted area and execute them, in startlingly graphic detail (the explosion scene still makes us cringe). Obviously the video is meant to show the ugliness of persecution — a worthy mission for a video — but we still wonder if MIA went too far.
