    Huh? Why?

    Oh, I see!

    Well, the Ukrainian audience seemed to like the gesture... but I can see why Russians were upset!

    *If you spend much time talking with veterans of war, you will find that they tend to fall into both the anti-war and pro-war camps. After all, the US glorifies war, and veterans are praised for their service. That is why many of them send their sons off to fight in wars as well. They believe it is the honorable thing to do. There are also plenty of veterans who return for multiple tours.
    Oh. Well I know Obama never did any military service and neither did Bush (except stateside).

    But I still don't get why anyone would sign up for the milirary if they were anti-war. Btw, I'm not anti-war but I am anti-this-war.

    Chirping's never cool and especially against other countries.
    Anyway, Brokencyde's 1st album and the Midnight Beast trump Bloodhound Gang! And they sound really lame compared to the World Alive, Sum 41, Psyko Punkz, Avenged 7x, and tons more bands. Even Cage the Elephant trumps Bloodhound Gang so no huge loss! If I wanna hear that style of music, I'll listen to 5 Finger Death Punch or Hollywood Undead.
    I think the only bands worse than Bloodhound gang were White Stripes and Nickelback.

    Well, their loss anyway. They got their rotten eggs and tomatoes for what they did.
    It is sad though because they and their supporters think that they are heroes but in reality they are just mediocre and foolish copycats.
