Part 2 - Dee Snider PMRC Senate Hearing

[metaldrummer185]

i wonder how this would have gone if bands like cannibal corpse, dimmu borgir, and dark funeral were on the stand haha

[andrew180995]

I want to know how many parents really care about the music their children listen to, mine certainly dont, they may not like the music themselves, but that doesnt differ their decision to let me listen to it

[sqmuth]

Cracking up at the last second of video in this clip. God, Gore was a stupid prick. So was Hollings.

[strunku]

"There's two noobs on a radio. One off them is the volume and the other one.....changes the freakin' channel!!!" - George Carlin

[xDrummingPiex]

The dude who starts talking at 2:08 sounds like he has peanut butter stuck to the roof of his mouth...

[ogiugi96]

PMRC the movie is fucking awesome! Watch it!

[aiex72aiex72]

you have to admit they bounced back from his slaughter of them very well.

[SuperStrik9]

I lol at the fact that when they put parental warnings on albums, it completely backfired and those albums sold more.

[bonjovigirl2011]

ya that right if your not going to take the time to listen to muisc or learn about a band 's personnailty then u shouldn't bitch about.

[juliia272]

I LOVE TWISTED SISTER!!!!

[SpikesFerret]

The senator everyone is refering to reminds me of a soun wave. He starts to make an articulant thought and then it drops to muttering and back up to a new thought. Sort of like a real bad Ellen Degerence joke.

[Yourmomathon]

It pissed me off when the senator said, "these circumstances outweigh the rights of the First Amendment." What the fuck is that?!?! The First Amendment allows the right of FREE SPEECH, not the right of regulated speech.

[wthjrtx1]

You cant stop Rock N Roll....Boo Yah..You theives. liars ,closet fags and hypocrites!!!

You just got owned!!!

[pilotamurorei]

Funny how they quote George Carlin's seven words when it has nothing to do with this situation lol

[sjp092]

@pilotamurorei Actually he was referenced because his Seven Words routine was played on the radio and some guy and his kid heard it and they brought it to court over indecency. It was similar to this case so he mentioned it.

[Gregrg7]

Mr. Foghorn at 2:45: "we should not act like we are on the defensive and are powerless.." WOW! ZIEG HEIL! wow... I hope he DIED of the most painful cancer EVER!!!

[sk8erboi965]

fuck the pmrc

[DrTatterdemalion]

I love how Foghorn Leghorn, starting at 2:05, manages to talk for over two minutes, and still says absolutely nothing. I mean, I'm a media student, and I understand the things he's referring to, but his comments, when taken together, are a bunch of gibberish.

[hosjes]

He just says it right. It is the parents responsability!!!

[madmaxxmayhem]

god dam,dee really tore the tight ass bastards up!,,metal forever!

[taffysaur]

i was sixteen when marilyn manson's antichrist superstar came out (i.e:- the target age of his intended audience) + i was anticipating it very much but i had to have my mother buy it for me because the sticker prevented anyone under eighteen from buying it, AND the lyrics were inside.

and that was before all teh columbine nonsense.

[xXfrownyguyXx]

The Time!

[GintokisGirl95]

3:34 Guy sounds just like Foghorn Leghorn!

[lonepilgrim007]

metal sux but he`s right



[supersawneekfan]

Sick Motherfucking Friends Of Twisted Sister

[Juzze1983]

I Myself find this whole thing offencive Like Dee said It is the parents job to decide what their kids listen to read or watch.

[Dillychu]

when and by who was this original video aired? Does anyone know? Can you get back to me as soon as possible if you do know? Thanks :)

[dunnfra]

It's all about choice. Our finest people died terrible deaths so we can be free to choose. The mind cannot be corralled like cattle. God gave us a mind AND a mouth to use. These jokers need to step the F@#$%k off. At the same time, parents need to keep their kids close and pay attention to ALL that they do.

[MrMike6604]

that congressman sounds like boomhauer off of king of the hill

[Maddolis]

@MrMike6604 dang ol'.. comgressman mang

[AnarchyDeathHate666]

Dee rocks!

[Kruezoraxe]

I research swear words in my career of cognitive psychology. When you censor ANYTHING, you actually provide greater emphasis to be placed upon the material. These guys are actually making the perceived 'problem' worse by calling attention to it.

[DougKendall]

If you don't like it, Nazi scumbags, TURN IT OFF and you want have to worry about it. Easy solution. But don't try to get in MY way while I enjoy it.

[CFHMetalHeadCFH]

Sick upload man! Thanks for it! By the way you wouldn't happen to be a wrestling fan would you?

[Solidiquis]

Dee knows more english than the whole court!

[DeeFist1980]

@Solidiquis ...are you kidding? lol jk he probably knows more about anything than those diaper heads

[FUNNYDUDEFILMS]

Absolutism? is that even a word lol!!

[MegaAcdcrocks1]

5:34 Favorite part 6:11 most hardcore part

[InfernalDeth6]

i like how in Sniders statement, He bassicly called Tipper Gore a pervert. lol

[TheCorpseshredder]

"Sick Mother Fucking Friends of Twisted Sister"  *End Video*

[RobbyLite95]

Does anybody notice the hair on Dee's face? It looks like Jesus

[katana1361]

you know whats funny? all those on the PMRC are probably old as fuck now XD........this was during the mid 80's

[Ihatemyusernamemore]

I'm glad he points out that the feeling of a song and it's musical content isn't automatically connected with the lyrics

[southparkboy619]

It makes me sad that Snider, Zappa, and Denver all made such beautiful points, and these fucking assholes already had their minds made up, and essentially, made a spectacle out of the artists testifying.

[LeGrugkbdst]

Look at these old geezers, these puritanical hags with sand in their vaginas. Just look at 'em. They deserved being torn apart, by no less a man Dee Snider. Hail!

[Teabonesteak]

"Are you going to tell me you're a big fan of my music as well?"

Dee definitely saw through that old politicians trick.

[rhinobarrows]

I am a SMF Friend of Twisted Sister.

[Metal8909]

SICK MOTHERFUCKIN' FRIENDS OF TWISTED SISTER~

[Cyphilus]

lmfao: SMF TWISTED SISTER

[guitardude431]

I enjoyed seeing watching Dee own these stuck up dbags we call senators.

[crylittlesister11]

Only three words can describes this. ABSOLUTE FUCKING MASSACRE! Well done Dee the S.M.F's will always back you up

[gendrpepper]

2:18 looks like jay leno

[djtrixen]

@gendrpepper Ernest Hollings... also famous for the "Beaver and Buffcoat" line... lol

[MetalMakesMeEargasm]

i love how Dee swore in court, perfectly executed, those fucking assholes had no idea what would really happen when you try to kill the metal.

[DeeFist1980]

@MetalMakesMeEargasm well what did they expect from the guy? Hes pissed at them and hes out to get what he wants!

[VagMan123]

@MetalMakesMeEargasm

i agreed to ur comment not cause i agreed with it itself but cause it had 99 votes i wanted to make it 100

[ejshaff]

dee tore these stupid people apart

[ACEDIAMOND666]

@ejshaff yup. good for him. as a heavy metal musician and lyricist myself, i take serious offense to anyone telling me what i can and cannot say or play in my music. i am the sole songwriter for my band, so it is my job to defend what i do. i gladly carry the flag into battle for metal!

[LynxOGrady]

@ACEDIAMOND666 I thought that was the exact reason anybody would be lyricist, so they write songs about whatever the fuck they want, and this whole thing that the PMRC was trying to her is pretty much telling a lyricist to not do their job, or to do with while under a fucking microscope

[ACEDIAMOND666]

@LynxOGrady yup. you nailed it.

[Hanzey666]

@LynxOGrady I think it had a lot to do with Power over..and being in control with...eventually. This was about 30 years ago. If the PMRC would have it their way, they would have set another step closer to decide what the kids of US were going to listen to. Controled by Media....sounds a bit familiar now 30 years later.......
