"My president," Mustaine began, before pausing to pantomime gagging, "is trying to pass a gun ban, so he's staging all of these murders, like the Fast and Furious thing down at the border, you know, Aurora, Colorado, all the people that were killed there. And now the beautiful people at the Sikh temple."

Wowy, right-wing media really has a bad affect on people it seems.

Also, the copious amounts of drugs, alcohol and massively inflated ego, where he thinks that he is right about everything all the time, that comes with being a rockstar.

He's a fucking idiot. And they're a shitty band.

While I wouldn't put it past Obama to capitalize on these tragedies to further his own agenda... that's just nuckin futs.

Big-Al · Aug 16, 2012

well... so far, so good, so what?

harsh accusations, but they'd be better in a song. not that these kinda killings are new.

Yeah he really wants to not let us buy guns and wants to ban guns. Is that really why gun sales are up during the Obama years compared to the previous administration? If anything it shows that our freedom to buy whatever gun we like is still alive and well, and here to stay.

All hype and fear on the Republican's and conservative's part. The Democrats lately aren't even touching the issue of gun control with a fifty foot stick, knowing full well that the conservatives would pounce on the issue like piranhas. There hasn't been any broadly-reaching type of gun reform proposed by the Democrats in recent memory. It's a manufactured 'Second Amendment Crisis' that has no basis in reality.

I don't really have a contribution to the politics side of this, but I just wanted to say that I thought the idea of piranhas pouncing on things is really funny.

It's not nuts really; just sick if it's the only way that fucker can get his name in the press these day.

Vaskadar · Aug 16, 2012

Fuckin' words and stuff.

Too bad. Such a good musician ruins his legacy with some political bull...

"Next thing you know, they'll take my thoughts away..."

Mustaine lost it over 20 years ago when he became a born again christian

Let me put it this way. Politicians are opportunistic and will capitalize on public tragedies that are popular in the media given their impact on human emotions for the advancement of their own political agendas. Obama is no different.

You are right that politicians capitalize, but what Obama is doing is nowhere near the false accusations this guy is making. And this is the whole point of the argument: of how absurd and ludicrous what guys like this (including Ted Nugent) say and their fans just soak the inflamed rhetoric up.

yeah except in this case you're dead wrong.

Obama does not have an anti-gun agenda.
during the last 4 years he's actually expanded gun ownership laws. he has no intention of challenging the 2nd amendment.

Firefly · Aug 17, 2012

he was joking

Zur · Aug 17, 2012

What if US reaches economic meltdown ? Would it be so far fetched as not want guns pointed at you if you're a politician ? Maybe he's half joking.
