I'm not sure from the context whether you're saying this is a good idea, or
just tossing it out as something for discussion. But, it's a bad idea.
Something which will benefit you in the future: realize that when any kind
of artist make a peice of art about something, they are not neccessarily
endorsing it. This is easy to understand if the artist is an actor. Nobody
thinks that Jim Carrey hates Christmas or that James Earl Jones wants to
dominate the universe. Why do you think Ice T wants people to kill cops? Of
course, maybe he does, but you can't deduce that from the fact that he wrote
a song from the point of view of someone who does.
