    I was at Ft.Lauderdale - he didn’t  say shit. He played I am a patriot and did special thanks to all the war vets.  I even missed the mask bit and didn’t even realize it had occurred.

    Really ^^^^^ I’m not a big Boss fan but he def doesn’t suck , what will you say when Vedder starts his rants on this bafoon on the upcoming Europeing tour ? 
    Yeah he sucks. My opinion. Music is subjective.

    i don’t care what any artist says on stage...they’ve earned their stage/mic and can say what they want.

    and I’m pretty embarrassed to have trump as my president as well.

    But then again, I’ll never have to hear Bruce rant from stage cause his music sucks and I won’t go to the show. ;)

    Ughh is right the damages will almost be insurmountable I’m not saying only a Democrat president can right this ship but it will take a Middle of the road Republican to get back from the mess this bafoon is sure to leave behind!!

    no, I am going to make a video of me shooting them with my AK.
    Just what this country needs, another pissed off guy with a gun and a video camera lol

    I hope you're not going to see Pearl Jam in 2018 my friend
    I ain’t mad. I am just proud I can actually do this if so choose to ;)
    You are showing you disagree with someone politically by shooting at symbols that represent them

    I think that's really poor taste, and something we need a little less of in this country in my opinion
    I guess I could just burn them instead. I don’t disagree pollitically with Bruce- I think it is in poor taste to go to other country bad mouthing the United States.  Again make a statement at the voting booth, not in a different country.
    Why don't you not waste shit, and give them to someone who can enjoy them FFS? Or sell them to a used record store?

    Acting like Bruce has some obligations to some stupid country of all things and aren't allowed to be embarrassed by all the stupid things that is happening... haha. Get your head out of your childish nationalism-ass.

    Bruce doesn't need to say he's embarrassed though. All sane people would be.

     





    Just let Bruce be Bruce. And you can be you.

    you are obviously jerking your shot to the right.  slow your breathing down.  use the tip of your finger  and let the shot surprise you.

    I don’t have a scope and it was about 20 yards or so.  ;)  I can’t decide if ashbury park darkness or born to run should be first against the wall.

    20 yards buck?!  christ I shoot tighter groups at 200 yards with iron sights.  You might need a lesson or two.  ;)

    This sporadic shooting from 20 yards doesn't necessarily win any points from the 'stop the bad guy with a gun with a good guy with a gun' argument.

    If the 'good guy' shoots like Buck... well... eesh.

    I am even worse with a pistol.  I got no excuses!!!! 
  • I am even worse with a pistol.  I got no excuses!!!! 

    Just don't have the pistol turned around facing you while your thumb is on the trigger... or you might shoot a hole in your nut sack like Scruffy did showing off at the Kid Rock preshow party.
