If everyone in the entire world listened to this amazing band and actually listen to what they have to say our world would be so much better and people will see it different , like for me. I used to litter like a mother fucker and when I saw them on tv the song ready to fall it changed my life and that was 3years ago and to this day I haven't Littered .keep on rocking rise against
No one should ever think about suicide, Rise Against is right, life will get better! If anyone is thinking about suicide, DON'T, think about your future instead! IT GETS BETTER!
When i watched this for some reason i thought he said fat prick instead of fabric... Oh well but he is right that pplz need to stand up not only for themeselves but others too
As a completely heterosexual male, I have to say that Tim McIlrath is my man crush.I've seen them live a number of times, and I'm just in awe at the the things he says. Gives me goosbumps.
i almost did myself because of depression. i was ready to propose to a long time gf and she left me a few months before i planned to propose. im still under the worst depression of my life. i have lost all hope for anything, i need help i know i do, but i could care less to receive any...sometimes i dont know why i even bother with anything anymore. i need help
Umm guys not to but in or anything, but I kind off saw Tim sing songs on stage two days ago with my own two eyes...... so I can confirm that he is still very much alive and rocking.
I would just like to say that although I have never had to deal with anything remotely close to what the kids that contemplate harming themselves are dealing with. I have seen enough to feel confident that it does get better, and on a separate note, Tim you are my hero and you will forever be my hero as well as the rest of Rise Against. Your message will live on long after you are gone.
Mr. 245darkstar I would just like to say that your research is ignorant of historical facts. It is a proven statistic that homosexuality was excepted and tolerated more in ancient times, like during JESUS' time, then now. It's your kind of hate that keeps the world
Is constant debate and hatred. If your going to hate, at least have the intelligence to educate.
Relax, his demise isn't confirmed to be true yet. It could just be someone trolling Wikipedia. Plus, would he take drugs, after being a straight edge for so long?
I love it to be different. I always wanna be more and more special :) and I love people who are different , because they often have interesting charakters ;) And I hate these bitches who think they're cool just because they wear expensive clothes -.- in the end they have no real friends!
Def agree, Tim. I remember when I was a teenager and felt so out of place and alone, but it definently is not a lasting feeling and you look back now and realize there are bigger and better things in life.
i wish i had a silver tongue like guys like Tim Mcllrath, or my father or even some of my friend's. that way when i get in situations where there are jerks, or bully's that treat people horrible and just don't care. i'd have something to say to them and the people around them that would make a difference. and i could do something to make it better. but when i try, the word's just aren't there. For what its worth though it does get better! ;)
@245darkstar I support iwontpostvideos, as they are correct. You come on to a video about social acceptance and equality, to make a inhumane comment? Shame on you. I hope you get depressed like all the victims of homophobia and other prejudices, watch this video then. See how you feel then. I bet you will look in the mirror and think "I was a complete and utter Asshole!"
@245darkstar you should be ashamed if you're an ra fan. homophobia isn't a physical fear of gay people. it's more intense discrimination, similar to racism. it's somewhat difficult to describe to someone who has no brain, such as you. tsk tsk.
@iwontpostvideos What you fail to realize is that a phobia is an intense fear. Hemophobia is a fear of blood. Homophobia, if you take it to its literal context, means, "An intense fear of homosexuals." It's a shame really, you claim that I have no brain, and yet you are unable to form a half-way decent argument. I also understand what it is taken for, as apposed to its literal meaning. However, I am strongly apposed to homosexuality. It doesn't get better. It gets worse.
@245darkstar first, everyone understands what a phobia is. but not many "homophobic" people are genuinely afraid of gay people. just more hateful than afraid. it's your problem if you're against something that people cannot control. it's YOUR problem if you can't be understanding and love someone for who they are. no one should try to change themselves just because people like YOU don't approve.
@iwontpostvideos If on one should have to change for someone else why should I change who I am for a faggot that is an abomination? By the way, it is a choice you ignorant fool. No one is born gay, it's a choice. You may be drawn to the same sex, but you know it's abnormal and wrong yet you choose to act on that. It's the same as overweight people, they might be predisposed to being fat, but you need to CHOOSE to stay fat.
@245darkstar you are so fucking stupid. you don't even understand the human brain. if you examine the brain of someone that is homosexual, there are clear differences. are you telling me, that you choose what your favorite color or food is? you're stupid as fuck. if a guy likes guys, he's gay, and there's nothing fucking wrong with that. people are who they are.
@iwontpostvideos Did you even read my comment you dumb shit? I said, "You may be drawn to the same sex, but you know it's abnormal and wrong yet you choose to act on that." Now in the probable case that you can't read I suggest you get an adult to do it for you. Now no you don't choose what/who you like, but you sure as hell can choose to ignore it. If you had the urge to kill someone, that may be what you want, but you choose not to because you know it's wrong.
@245darkstar so you expect people to choose to be unhappy, and go against something THEY FEEL? there's nothing at all wrong with being gay. not a single thing. it has no effect on you, or anyone but themselves, so why the fuck should it matter to you? in fact, gay people are some of the nicest people i know. i love how you tell me to get an adult to read for me, when you look about 13 years old on your youtube picture.
i don't know why you harbor so much hate, but go somewhere else with it.
@iwontpostvideos Why the hell are you looking at my picture on youtube? If you had a brain you'd ask before you assume that that is me. That's my son dumb shit. And they're is a lot wrong with being gay, how do you think A.I.D.S came about. From gay butt sex. and yes I am saying to go against what you feel if that feeling is to be gay. Being gay is abnormal, and wrong, and they if you remember being gay wasn't acceptable until the past 10-15 years. And so what if I were 13, I'd still be write.
@245darkstar lmao you are so fucking undeducated it's not even funny. go research aids, please do, for the love of god. and you can't even spell *RIGHT properly. jesus christ, this just goes to show that all people who hold hate in their hearts are just ignorant and stupid.
@iwontpostvideos I guess your ability to spot heavy sarcasm is obviously not there. Look, gays are bad, straights are good, shut the fuck up and stop flooding my e-mail.
@245darkstar how can you consider "straights" good? you are apparently straight, and i have to say, you're one of the biggest douchebags i've ever seen in my life. take your hate elsewhere. it doesn't belong on this amazing video.
@245darkstar there really is nothing wrong with a lifestyle that people chose for themselves i say live and let live and i know your comment is from over a month ago but come on...people love who they love male or female.
@LifeShun --life sucks like a Dyson vacuum at times, but what I've come to find out is that there is immense pleasure at proving the bullies wrong. I have shown all of mine how wrong they are.
i loveyou guys... i lost my best friend to suicide, and Make It Stop reminds me that he was a perfect human being, whereas those who bullied him were hateful
Rise Against: an inspiration to anyone and everyone. even to the people have never heard of them. they've inspired me to do many things. including starting to be a musician and stand up for myself and others.
@1800Spencer I do agree. Obviously playing videogames on a daily basis isn't gonna make ya depressed, but ones mood definitely does inprove when they get out there and actually DO something. Working hard actually makes you feel great even if it does seem like too much effot sometimes. :p
I'm not gay, but people that treat them differently are wrong. No one should be bullied to the point where they would harm themselves. Tim, you've set me, and many others on the right path. Thanks.
Tim McIllrath is literally the best person ever. If everyone was like him, we would live in a place that everyone could be happy in. God bless you Tim. Your ideals and your music are amazing.
@deadkid320 normally i hate that kind of comments because they are lame, but with this video you're right. i don't get why someone would give this thumbs down.. :s
@superfreak1164 Well, although I disagree about the video games(would need studies on it), exercise has shown to help a lot of people. Thats why there are things such as runners high.
I freaking love this guy and I freaking love this band! They've changed my life and given me hope. Tim you're amazing.... and I hope everyone knows they're not alone... because we'll (or at least I will) fight for you.
I used to bully this one kid who'd bully me, but then I started seeing all these kids in my town commiting suicide and I realized it could've been him. I smartened up and stopped, apologized and now I'm a rastafarian. I live every day on the basis of not doing harm or saying or thinking hurtful things. It's been a year. Rise Against forever
@1800Spencer Well thats a big fucking lie. Playing video games and not exercising have VERY little, if anything, to do with depression. If you dont know what youre talking about, dont say anything. It doesnt matter whether you were TRYING to be rude or not, you were.
@1800Spencer ... I've had depression... and I didn't smoke weed. But I exercised before and throughout depression, and it didn't get rid of depression. I played video games. I stopped for a while, it didn't get rid of the depression. Have you had depression, or know anything about it? Because if you don't, then shut up.
what i luv is that, that wasn't reheares, Unlike some "artists" who just hire a proffesional Speech writer. Tim's speech came from the heart. Long live Rise against.
Im not gay too but im different...i have friends yah enough but im different ;) and i have to say it was rlly hard in school and now i have a lot of friends and they like me like i am and dont want me to change !! Keep that in mind guys and girls
i used to be homophobic....and to an extent i still prefer to distant myself from the extreme ones, but i no longer hold any animosity towards them. because of make it stop, i realize what i did was wrong, and i apologize.
@NickSings4Her Everyone distances themselves from extremely camp people. Me and my straight friends have gay friends and well we were at a halloween party. Two gay guys came dressed up as the gayest pimps you will ever see. Like really thin tight fabric and shit and one of our gay friends just came up to us and went, "fucksake I thought I was gay but maybe not." But yes! Good on you.
Tim McIlrath is a God.... He actually cares about where mans path is going His music can teach everyone a Lesson he Taught me that you shouldnt give a fuck about how people percieve you, cause In the End all that matters is how you feel about yourself. I think despite of everyones differences we can all agree that Tim McIlrath is a shine of Hope.
Rise against may not be the greatest band . But they are the greatest band with the message they send . I'm not gay/bi/les but I still stick up for people who are that get bullied . Were All human
I'm am a new fan of Rise Against and in the past 6 months I've been listening to them, I fell in love with their music. Rise against doesn't write songs.. they write stories. They always seem to make me smile. All their songs are mind blowing, and remarkable. And now I've watched this video, and I fell in love with them even more. Especially Tim. He seems so genuine, unlike a lot of other singers.
Btw, I NEVER KNEW HE WAS ONE BROWN EYE AND ONE BLUE EYE. :$
This band is so amazing! I've been listening to them for five years & no matter how sad or pissed I feel they always can pull me out of my funk & make me feel better. They make me feel like I can be something & make a difference in the world, something no one else has ever made me believe. You're my hero Tim!!!
Those tow dislikes are people that are heartless and are probably bully's that don't believe in this shit but what if one day the person you bullied died, and you are the one to blame, would you feel guilt or would you just be heartless. and karma can be bitch trust me
He's my personal hero.. he changed my life so many times.. i'm proud to call myself a Rise against fan :D Still can't believe that they'll come to our country (hungary) :D I must see them live :D it will be awesome! :D
Guys, how could anyone not like this? I have 88 rise againat songs on my ipod, and i have a favorite consisting of about 40 songs. These have meaning. Songs today have no meaning. I mean, c'mon, the chorus being black and yellow repeating constantly?? I can't stand it, if it weren't for rock, i'd go crazy and bezerk.
The song Make It Stop, the music video, and these videos from the band make me so much prouder to call myself a Rise Against fan. To know that they care about our rights, our well-being, and are willing to stand up and convey that in song and imagery has made that band-to-fan connection a much stronger and more personal one. Thanks guys, and see you in Bristol next Saturday!
LOVE THEM YOU GUYS HELP ME DO WHATS RIGHT!! IF IT WASNT FOR RISE AGAINST I DONT KNOW WHO I WOULD BE RIGHT NOW .....KEEP UP WITH THE GOOD MESSAGES IN YOUR MUSIC ;)
This man is my role model. With people like him, the world would be a better place. I'm so addicted to this band and it's members that it's almost sad, but omg. I LOVE THEM SO INDESCRIBABLY MUCH. Everything they stand for is right.
@freimanRA and got me crying, cuz alot of people i hang around with cope with the thought of committing suicide, and ive heard so much/and seen so much anger and sadness.
tims right and hes such a great speaker, "they are the fabric that make up this society" such a briliant guy and should run for presedent he could make change
tims right and hes such a great speaker, "they are the fabric that make up this society" such a briliant guy and should run for presedent he could make change

@1800Spencer I do agree. Obviously playing videogames on a daily basis isn't gonna make ya depressed, but ones mood definitely does inprove when they get out there and actually DO something. Working hard actually makes you feel great even if it does seem like too much effot sometimes. :p

I'm not gay, but people that treat them differently are wrong. No one should be bullied to the point where they would harm themselves. Tim, you've set me, and many others on the right path. Thanks.

I used to bully this one kid who'd bully me, but then I started seeing all these kids in my town commiting suicide and I realized it could've been him. I smartened up and stopped, apologized and now I'm a rastafarian. I live every day on the basis of not doing harm or saying or thinking hurtful things. It's been a year. Rise Against forever

@1800Spencer Well thats a big fucking lie. Playing video games and not exercising have VERY little, if anything, to do with depression. If you dont know what youre talking about, dont say anything. It doesnt matter whether you were TRYING to be rude or not, you were.
superfreak1164 3 months ago
@1800Spencer ... I've had depression... and I didn't smoke weed. But I exercised before and throughout depression, and it didn't get rid of depression. I played video games. I stopped for a while, it didn't get rid of the depression. Have you had depression, or know anything about it? Because if you don't, then shut up.

@NickSings4Her Everyone distances themselves from extremely camp people. Me and my straight friends have gay friends and well we were at a halloween party. Two gay guys came dressed up as the gayest pimps you will ever see. Like really thin tight fabric and shit and one of our gay friends just came up to us and went, "fucksake I thought I was gay but maybe not." But yes! Good on you.

Tim McIlrath is a God.... He actually cares about where mans path is going His music can teach everyone a Lesson he Taught me that you shouldnt give a fuck about how people percieve you, cause In the End all that matters is how you feel about yourself. I think despite of everyones differences we can all agree that Tim McIlrath is a shine of Hope.

I'm am a new fan of Rise Against and in the past 6 months I've been listening to them, I fell in love with their music. Rise against doesn't write songs.. they write stories. They always seem to make me smile. All their songs are mind blowing, and remarkable. And now I've watched this video, and I fell in love with them even more. Especially Tim. He seems so genuine, unlike a lot of other singers.
Btw, I NEVER KNEW HE WAS ONE BROWN EYE AND ONE BLUE EYE. :$

They make me feel like I can be something & make a difference in the world, something no one else has ever made me believe. You're my hero Tim!!!

Guys, how could anyone not like this? I have 88 rise againat songs on my ipod, and i have a favorite consisting of about 40 songs. These have meaning. Songs today have no meaning. I mean, c'mon, the chorus being black and yellow repeating constantly?? I can't stand it, if it weren't for rock, i'd go crazy and bezerk.

The song Make It Stop, the music video, and these videos from the band make me so much prouder to call myself a Rise Against fan. To know that they care about our rights, our well-being, and are willing to stand up and convey that in song and imagery has made that band-to-fan connection a much stronger and more personal one. Thanks guys, and see you in Bristol next Saturday!
