Kurt: Now some white trash mothers are gonna sue us after they beat their children for a few years and neglect them, and then they kill themselves and blame it on us.

Krist: That's right. 'I gave him a good Christian upbringing. What happened?'

Kurt: 'I tanned his ass every day. He should have turned out just fine. If it wasn't for that record...'

-10 Aug 1993

Archivist's notes: They were talking about censorship and the moral panic among fundamentalist "Christians" in America, who conveniently blamed rock music (including Nirvana) for their children's behaviour, while failing to look at the real source of the problem: their own abusive parenting.
