i am surprised that more people on here are not renouncing their tenclub membership or slamming stone for his position on the issue. ed gets shit on here all the time for what he stands for. remember the west memphis three and all of the shit he took for that? turns out he was fucking right. just as stone is right to do what he is doing here.

Okay..but I dunno, maybe I'm not understanding, but how is it not spreading awareness talking about how banning guns from the mentally disabled is ignorance. I have brain damage from an innoculation. Because of the type of damage it's done, I am legally labelled and considered mentally disabled. I take great offence to things like what Stone is pushing because it puts all of us into one catagory. We're all nutcases who might go off on people with a gun. I don't appreciate it when people group us together like that without even bothering to get the mentally disabled's point of view. I've been seeing this being done by both sides on a huge scale. Very few have spoken up for us with accurate information. Most mentally ill gun owners have shown they are perfectly capable of being responsible with a gun.
"Stone is pushing because it puts all of us into one catagory"
Stone who?
Not Stone G.-- I just can't imagine that. I've never met the guy but I seriously can't imagine that he'd have anything against any of us who are brain damage.
We might consider posting guideline #5, "The band's personal lives are private", before getting too carried away focusing on Stone, especially if the OP's intent was otherwise which appears to be so.
The link posted..if that is what he supports, then it is ignorant because it doesn't take into account that not all mentally ill are apathetic and want to kill everyone..I've heard so many things said about the mentally ill in the past few weeks that make me sick. I knew the ignorance was bad, but geez..I didn't know it was on this level of bad.

Good question, gimme. Why is that about? He even got away with that tree hugging shit . Where is the justice?

Funny how musicians in the 60s and 70s weren't slammed for reflecting society and its problems (which is basically what musicians do), but they are now. Good thing that EV and Stone don't give a shit if people don't like what they stand for.
