so I have been wanting to find out more...
these are excerpts from his book in 2000 ... might have to pick it up.
http://www.subtletea.com/tednugentquotes.htm
Boy that one quote hit my heart about the sheeping of Americans
but thank goodness we have seen many now who will stand up and be heros
in the face of personal danger.
Ted has quite a sense of humor and a bigger than life enthusiasm
44 concert dates scheduled this spring summer :shock:

eating mountain lion steak?
"Vegetarians are cool. All I eat are vegetarians - except for the occasional mountain lion steak."
i know it happens. i met a women in the rainforest up in western washington and she works at this lodge and she told us her neighbor saw a cougar out back in the nearby woods. someone shot it and they strung it up and butchered the big cat and ate the fucker. she made me sick to my stomach and in my head i was telling her off bigtime and i even resorted to despicable name calling.
it felt beautiful to me by calling her foul names.
if she wasn't our waitress at the lodge i believe i may have been rude. honestly i wished i was a big nasty broad. i'd have slapped her fucking stupider than she is.

ted nugent quoates are not inspiring to me at all.you despise this man.
Me not so much.
I think the quote about people hiding in the face of danger though spot on
After 911, which was after these quotes, taught people to fight to save a life.
As a group as a collective power. Ted was right about that ... fighting back.
So much of his stuff is tongue in cheek, his humor attention getting.
Perhaps you can relate, your humor is sometimes similar and I find
both entertaining, as you know or guessed.
Ted, he eats what he kills.
As the other thread mentioned really no different then eating a cow or chicken.
I was shocked at the 44 concert dates really why I posted ... I had no idea! :shock:
I guess he still has a following musically.
I wonder if anyone here has seen him live or read his book? Well that will admit to.0 -

but we have covered that quite a bit.
I have done a little more research on him
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T_QjEL0uUgo I know some people that
agree with him on this subject, I have listened to their words and Ted minces none here.0 -

well, I'll admit to it. I saw Ted twice when I was younger, like 17-20ish. He played quite a bit at a nearby theatre. He was crazy when I saw him in concert. It was cool, he was cool. I mean his songs DID get some radio play, of the times, music I listened to.
now older, I really disagree with how he lives, but that's not for me to judge. sometimes I hear his music, stranglehold, and pearl jam is so against that general mindset I feel an inter-conflict inside me saying, is it really okay to listen?
If I'm in the mood, I will and if not I won't. don't have anything to do with pj or ted's way of life. Music is the common denominator here.
just saying my 2c.

I have never seen him perform live and only know the big radio hits.
I was going to delve deeper and see if he has any music I might like that never made the charts.
thanks for your input0 -

pandora,
a simple yes/no answer is all it takes to answer this question.

I can't really separate the person and the music...their output is an expression of who they are, and if they stand for stuff that I'm against, I will not like their music either.0

Ted Nugent has gotten exactly what he wanted...ATTENTION!
He is a one-hit wonder from the 70s who stays relevant by making incendiary comments that he knows will get people rilled up and talking about him. "Hey look at me!!!"
At least if you don't like Pearl Jam's politics, and they aren't playing their politics like Nugent does, then you still have their music. I know two Ted Nugent songs and they're both from the 70s. What has he done lately?
And good for Ft. Knox for canceling his performance there. The only way to fight back against him is to hit him where it hurts..in the pocketbook!0 -

I have wrongly judged others based on my values, lacking insight and compassion
for what I thought was their values and how they chose to live their lives.
I will not do that again, not in the case of hunters, because they hunt does not make them bad
or any less human than I.

fans, like we would be disappointed if one of PJ's concerts were cancelled.
It seemed a bit immature on the part of our administration....

He's not an idiot. He has differing points of view from conservative society... but he's not an idiot. In fact, it's tough not to agree very strongly with some of his views such as the one he presents regarding our pathetic judicial system. We hear over and over again the repeat offences by scumbags that, quite frankly, need killing. We're far from enlightened when we pat ourselves on the back thinking we have serviced someone and then are forced to track them down again after another innocent member of society crosses their path.
I would say that the 'idiots' are the 'enlightened ones' that keep evolution and natural selection from occurring. Pedophile... you need death. Violent crime... you need death too.
Disagree with this? Crime maybe hasn't hit close enough to home yet. Hugh... you're Canadian. How do you feel about Michael Rafferty? Do you actually think we are better off going through massive court expenditures and institutionalizing him for even more expenditures instead of alloting that money to our education and medical systems? Ted thinks we're idiots for doing so. I tend to agree with him.
You can disagree with him- but you cannot call him an idiot for having a different point of view- even if he presents it a little stronger than what you might like to hear.
By the way... love my Tool Salival!"My brain's a good brain!"0 -
I don't dare call someone an idiot simply because they have a different point of view. I respect a differing point of view. I call someone an idiot because they are one. And Ted Nugent is a nutjob, plain and simple.
your view is the idiots are the ones that keep natural selection from occuring? REALLY? kill or be killed? this is the society you want to live in? because natural selection has absolutely nothing to do with killing the "bad ones", it's just killing the weak to strengthen the herd. the pedophiles aren't the weak, their victims are. pedophiles are predators.
I think you might want to rethink your stance on this. it's a pretty dangerous line of thinking.Gimli 1993

so your solution is what? kill a man without due process so we can give our children more books? I believe in due process. I think the benefits of it to society far outweigh the economics.Gimli 1993

I don't need to re-think my stance on this and the position which was stated is far from dangerous. The victims aren't 'weak'... they are victims. The pedophiles are a rogue element permitted to operate by our virtuous graces. They are sick and have the potential to perpetuate their sickness with their heinous acts.
Let's not get carried away here. Kill or be killed? That's not what I stated. I stated that Ted Nugent's stance on 'dead offenders' versus 'repeat offenders' is much more palpable for my personal tastes than feeble efforts to rehabilitate those that are simply beyond rehabilitation.
We've gone too far the other way. To illustrate my point, we have one local degenerate with over 40 convictions to his credit that was recently arrested... sigh... again... with pictures of young ones playing in their school playground. He took those pictures because people who share the same position as you have allowed for such opportunity.
Maybe a compromise? Say, 20 convictions for child molestation. Then death. Fair enough?"My brain's a good brain!"0
