That is the point, that is why we are here. It has nothing to do with feelings or snowflakes or unicorns that fart rainbows.
Bush did things a million times more grievous than Trump, all we got was a mask on a mic stand and a couple of songs.
I think this illustrates the divide in the country and how brazen the left has become when showing their hands to how violent they can or want to be. There is no love trumps hate, that only applies to the other side when it comes to that standard.
Maybe the band doesn't care anymore about alienating a portion of the fanbase, certainly people here don't care as evidenced by some replies in this thread, but it seems to no longer be the case of despite our beliefs or our differences we had that common bond and could come together despite all of that for the music. I truly meant it when I said I'd buy the first round because when the music is going everyone would live in that moment and forget their differences and just be in the present.
I think it may have started with the harm to gun owners comment, now this. Is that the direction? This poster is more than Rome is burning, I've said that for years, my core belief is to leave me alone and I leave you alone, now it just seems like it is getting personal. I find the image of the dead body distasteful and beneath the band frankly. I never would have guessed they would do that. The point can be made perfectly clear having the white house on fire, but someone chose to go further instead.
In case anyone hasn't noticed Jon Tester has been pro gun in the past, so the image of the guy holding the 2nd Amendment on a pro-Tester poster is somewhat confusing as well.
And I think in this one, trump is undead as his corpse is still crawling to get to the Russin cash.
So it really only means believe what we believe."My brain's a good brain!"0 -

tbergs said:Lots to analyze in this poster. Didn't even notice the eagle having a snack at first. Is that Pence in the right hand corner? Who's on the tractor?I think the bottom right corner is Congressman Andy Harris, Republican US Representative for Maryland's district 1. This article may shed some light on the issues there:
Star Lake 00 / Pittsburgh 03 / State College 03 / Bristow 03 / Cleveland 06 / Camden II 06 / DC 08 / Pittsburgh 13 / Baltimore 13 / Charlottesville 13 / Cincinnati 14 / St. Paul 14 / Hampton 16 / Wrigley I 16 / Wrigley II 16 / Baltimore 20 / Camden 22 / Baltimore 24 / Raleigh I 25 / Raleigh II 25 / Pittsburgh I 250 -

mickeyrat said:unsung said:Is that what I think it is?
(and I for one love it simply for its boldness and the controversy it's inspired. Finally PJ made a bold enough and explicit enough statement to create some again! It's been 15 fucking years since Bu$hleaguer for crying out loud).
With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be careful. Strive to be happy. ~ Desiderata0 -

If some country band had the same poster with Obama, do you not think there’d be 10 times the outrage? With accusations of racism and everything else.
im not offended, but I get why some would be.
i just find it funny that conservatives get made fun of for being offended for something like this, but if the shoe was on the other foot there’s probably be marches and boycotts over it.
I also think it’s very understandable to be upset that a current president is depicted as dead with a bird eating him. Also why I don’t get the poking fun at them.

if that poster was printed in a newspaper as a political cartoon it would probably win a prize. that's how good it is. I have never bought a PJ poster but I'd buy that one. Kudos.0
