No authority, then you have chaos. And that's not good.

[SirMaXimaX]

@thoomolong No authority + brainless sheep like you, only then you have chaos.

No authority + a properly thinking Humanity (with H cap), then you have Anarchy (with A cap), the satisfaction of every primary need and the release of all the fake ones (like this one, Internet) and most important of all the release of the sense of property. If there's no property then there's no need for authority.

My teacher made me stay behind after tutor, she told me i had a "Bad attitude towards authority", she asked me why i did, this is what i told her.

I got after schools for a week :D

[lolttyl143]

anyone else notice the 999 on his shirt at the end. yet another great punk band. but like the rest they dont match up to the clash.

[bloodyfication]

Joe Strummer okay? Joe Strummer.

[ShareTheSphere]

@bloodyfication Jaws Drummer?

[jainsworr]

Poet.

[RareBird0]

It has wisdom in theory but the praticioners can't be trusted to be wise. Live on, Joe.

[EdNortonisMineLol]

The words of a great man...

[Weekyl]

I would have liked to hear the rest of the clip, because just about everyone in my first grade class figured the same thing out by themselves.

[desasterz]

Meller president! oh... shame... I don't think he would have permitted abortion and even less infaticide.

[TomWillix]

as the government continues to do jack shit for the world joe strummer and the clashs legacy will live on

punk changed the world and still does

[ehead2222]

well im up for a change are you ???? the seed has been planted but dont forget

THERE DIRTY ! THERE FILTHY ! THEY HAVE NO FUCKING SOUL !!!!!!!!!!!!

JOE STRUMMER lives on as long as we have the balls to stand up and be counted our goverment lies to us and we take it are we mad !!!! fuck them hang them all !!!!!!! people power will win everytime if we have the bollocks to try it

[onegreenday]

nothing has changed Joe.

authority has zero wisdom; just look around

at our foolish governments and the pain they so on Earth.

Joe would want us to abolish them and the military.

Rock-in-peace Joe.

[whitedwarf13]

joe strummer wouldn't want to abolish the goverment- he wasn't an anarchist! Apparantly he's a socialist but that doesn't seem likely given the lifestyle he lead.

[onegreenday]

listen to the video again.

it's obvious he's talking about dismantling

government because they have no inherent wisdom and are evil; utter disdain for authority.

let's not be so quick to label people or joe strummer

. you want to label joe; forget it............

[elo333333333]

@onegreenday government doesn't revolve around authority dumbass.

[onegreenday]

@elo333333333 thats a stupid statement. Please don't waste my time.

[gigglygloo]

don't dirty these great videos of punk rock with your shitty chains, going against the wish of the man speaking above your pointless crap.

[Austinsj13]

Tom From Jersey is an idiot.

Guy's is he alive? OR Dead? 2 people are saying different

[teenager17]

Unfortunately he died a few years ago but he's one of my favorite musicians who ever lived! RIP Joe Strummer!

[BreValintine]
