No one can make a person emotional that's their choice.
That's completely false. We are biologically emotional beings - we don't get to choose whether or not we are emotional.
yes we are emotional beings but we can control how we react to people places and things,,,,, we don't have to project our emotions we can just keep them to ourselves if we choose,,,,
Quote
That's different from saying that "No one can make a person emotional." Here you are saying that "No one can make a person express their emotions." Completely different.
no one can hurt you unless you let them (unless you are a child or someone else who is helpless).. no one can offend you unless you choose to be offended because of a world view,these are just concepts we create as a society ...but that's a whole other thing that will have us go back to thousands of years of teachings of various spiritually enlightened teachers and psychologist....
To be honest, I think this is mostly a fashionable point of view that is circulating on the internet right now. People who like railing against the so-called PC culture bring this up a lot. But like most things that circulate on the internet, there is absolutely no evidence to support it.
Read the writings of the Buddha,,this is where I read it not the internet,,,, yes it has been experimented by thousands of monks and spiritual teachers for the bast 2,000 years and it works,,,,so there IS evidence to support it,,

But what does that have to do with your point that no one can hurt you unless you let them, and that no one can offend you unless you choose to be offended?

if they claim they can shut off emotions then who am I to argue with thousands of monks and spiritual teachers who have claimed these things for thousands of years,,,just because we haven't experienced it doesn't mean they didn't...but now I want to stop talking about this,,it's an interesting (fascinating) subject I suggest reading up on it..

Because they made it so for themselves ,,they shut off their emotions and didn't allow people to hurt them or offend them,,,,it's called Equanimity,,,okay now I'm done talking about it....read up on it,,,it is really cool stuff... let's go back to the subject..

OK. I probably won't not because I'm uninterested but because I have a really, really long reading list and, on top of that, reading is my job. Furthermore, what you are describing sounds like so much work that it sounds like being hurt and offended is an incredibly natural human characteristic. Maybe we can work really hard to overcome it but it certainly doesn't follow that we
choose
our emotions. I also find "offended" to be a subjective term. These days, I see more people being offended by so-called PC behaviour than just about anything else.

They might well be asked, seeing as the inauguration won't have many more current options:

Yep. It would be a mentally ill narcissist (literally *just* released from a mental facility, in fact) showing solidarity with someone just like him, another mentally ill narcissist. I hope Kanye plays it so that he finally sinks his career once and for all.

So the beeb makes a point that basically nobody wants to do it, even if offered money to do so. Trump's inauguration entertainment will be a couple of forgettable B-acts most likely. Mall might be awkwardly sparse in terms of turnout for the inauguration as well.

Beach Boys could perform at Trump’s inauguration
Do the Beach Boys have bigger balls than Garth Brooks and Andrea Bocelli?
The icons of California surf rock have been asked to bring some good vibrations to Donald Trump’s inauguration — and they’ve yet to decline.
“They have not made a decision,” said a source close to the band, which is currently headed by original member Mike Love and operating sans co-founder Brian Wilson."........

Consider the source of that speculation -- it's the New York Post. In any case, Mike and Bruce already have a gig in North Carolina on the 20th.

If they got the invite and agreed to play, you don't think they'd postpone or cancel the NC gig to play the DC ball?

What a giant shock that they are playing a pro-Trump state on inauguration day. They can be surrounded by a bunch of people who can give each other high-fives and tear up with joy. It occurs to me that if they actually wind up not performing for the inauguration (perhaps due to behind the scenes blocking by BRI), Mike can now just use the lame face-saving "sorry but I have a gig booked that day" excuse that he always uses, such as at the Hawthorne monument dedication in 2005 (because of course, being on tour playing parking lots in bowling alleys was more important).

Was it ever revealed what the actual excuse was for Mike and Bruce not attending the end of C50 dinner hosted by the Wilsons in the UK for the band and crew? "Other commitments" ?

Tickets never went on sale for that concert, and it was subsequently cancelled.
