Jesus - John Lennon Controversy (Part 3 of 4)

[Axolotl1231]

I think mark chapman got more hate then john when he said the bigger jesus comment... it's a fact. I:

[Axolotl1231]

wait a minute if GOD love's his children us why does he send them to hell? why not the naughty corner?...

[pogtc12]

if you want or need a for not shaging youer sister and dressing up in bed shites then just look the KKK

[pogtc12]

WTF religon should be banned. aparently jesus loves all apart from women black/coulured (witch ever one is policaly corect) people and homosextuals. so jesus love white men but hates gays because that makes sence

[alabaster30]

John Lennon was just being a brat and getting high on his fame. Apparently he pissed off the wrong people. No one would've made such a big deal about it had he said something about Allah and it pissed off the people of Saudi Arabia or something. He also stated that show business was "an extension of the Jewish religion." No one likes to remember that. Many Jews were hurt by this comment too.

[mess9u2]

They were real cops in those days! Love The Beatles but law and order was carried out by professional police in those days! Jus' because they're a member of a group does not give them a right to disobey the LAW!

[Krsna93]

3:13, Lol! Such Stiff-Necked Moron Drones!

[SaintJorge304]

My left nut itches.

[alabaster30]

@SaintJorge304 Mine too!

[ShadowDarkness51]

Lennon was just boasting!!!!!

[SURFNEWSTV]

Jesus promised the end of all wicked people. Odin promised the end of all ice giants.

I dont see many ice giants these days...

[asdfghjkl6661]

@SURFNEWSTV I just became an odin worshiper, where do we meet once a week to compare clothing?

[Zorbak962]

@asdfghjkl6661 a gay bar lol

[alabamaboy357]

@asdfghjkl6661 what is an odin worshiper

[SURFNEWSTV]

@HUGAWA

Hes dead you idiot. He was shot 4times in the back. God is imaginary. People just made up that there is some dude in the sky that created them because they cant cope with the fact that they are meaningless and there is no right and wrong and life is fundamentally absurd

[rockchickfairy]

@SURFNEWSTV

well said

[HORSE1492]

HGWT5763. 07/07/09/2011 A.D. SCREW THE DAMNED KU KLUX KLAN! THEY DO NOT NOW,NEVER DID,NEVER HAVE AND THEY NEVER WILL REPRESENT CHRISTIANITY,THEY ARE AN ORGANIZATION OF EVIL-OF BRUTALITY,OF VIOLENCE AND MURDER!

''The first aid man will furnish you with ear plugs, so as that you do not get a headache.'' LMAOOOOO

[geffel]

Gotta love these bigots. Imagine wasting your life hating people because of the colour of someone's skin.

[xtremerockomaniac]

One thing is popularity...Which is what people see in you

Another thing is Superiority which is being an upper force

and i believe that Lennon claimed: Beatles are more POPULAR than jesus christ

[Geril1969]

Mensch - der Cop tut so als würde Dschingis Khan in den USA einfallen .. *gg

[greenwich1754]

Yup, them dang Beatles! God only loves white people who don't dance & carry on 'n such. I thinks I'll join the clan 'n be saved.

[johnny10301968]

KKK Christian zeal? MY ASS!!!!

[alive3d]

I have no doubt that every single teenager who burned their records have lived to regret it.

[KnoxFab464]

@alive3d or rebought them and made the beatles twice the money...

[Turdbuckethat]

No dancing at a concert? LMAO. Anyone caught dancing or having any sort of good time.....will be arrested..............their address and telephone number.............. taken down...............and thrown into..............room D! Is that understood?!!!!

[flaxonx3]

You wonder what bible these numbskulls read, blimey what a bunch of 24-carat inbred retards. Squeal little piggy squeal.

[SubconsciousGatherer]

Holy shit. When's the last time you saw a news report that gave equal time to Christians and the KKK alike, even going so far as to equate them under the same banner with a common goal?

[jrjdm86]

kkk are Christians ?

the beatles = love

kkk= hate

who is more christ like ?

[tigerriot]

Imperial Wizard. LOL

[melh07302]

Fuck you KKK...fucking racist bastards.... you hate blacks and minorities and fucking kill them... and get all bent out of shape over what John Lennon said, which is true but was said not out of disrespect. Even today, kids are into their music and video games etc. then they are interested in Jesus or Christianity...etc.... fuck you motherfuckers. Fuck you KKK redneck assholes.

[jerzy862]

Problem, Christians?

[777collie]

The basic philosophy and belief of the klan is to uphold Christianity?..... lol... wot a twit!!!.... wasn't Acts 10:34 in the KKK bible..... fool!!!

[sinclair61]

Plenty of cotton! Thrown out for dancing....very democratic!

[FilmStudentWannabe]

LOL, pissed off christains are hilarious. Imagine no religion.

[941jack]

how thick are these people!! the beatles are evil but the KKK are fine!?!? if they were so botherd about jesus and christianity why are they racist!?

[patsyd80]

Lol them Mephis police looked like they just wanted to beat some black folk with their billy sticks.

[obscurebandfan]

0:29 white trash.

[electrocuteanna]

The KKK is such a fucking contradiction, and they can love God all they want, but as long as they burn 'niggers', they're burning in hell. Fucking idiots.

[predatormax16]

stupid Americans (south)

[beerborn]

He calls them "Mop Heads". Well since he's the Imperial Wizard of the KKK I call him "Pinhead". Actually the first aid man doesn't have ear plugs. He has "Hangmans Noose" for you to use against the Beatles. "Is that clear with everybody", he says. Man you can hear a pin drop.

[josiek55]

The KKK is the biggest terrorist group in the US. Let's ban them. Josette

[thedps1998]

Conlomeration?! "Sir, how does it feel to be, on the one hand, a racist, and on the other hand, a walking stereotype?"

[amalialovesicecream]

The KKK is anything else EXCEPT Christian.

[fintan135]

That memphis concert must have been a blast....

[DaGGortiz]

The KKK is officialy the most retarded group ever.

[wvfii]

i guess morans have always been jabbering on about "socialism"

[theKnag]

Anybody who is enjoying themselves will be ejected from the coliseum in order to prevent communism.

[joker0187]

nooooooooo, why they burn their records. shit, i wished i had some sealed first edition prints of the beatles............

[skint0n0minted]

The Beatles brought joy to the world. Religion is a scam and has bought nothing but bad things

[lifestraight]

The Ku Klux Klan and Christianity in the same sentence has always been a joke to me.

[twinflame93]

@lifestraight it's like Hitler being a Christian

[jx14aby]

This is why people think anyone with a southern acent is an idiot.

[ismasua93]

hahaha fuck the KKK! racism is the most absurd thing in the world! FUCK YOU FASCIST FUCKS! (a white european)

[imthefrogman]

Fuck the KKK . and im not Black.

and if you dont like what i just said!! well FUCK YOU TOO.

who needs you.

[SoldierUSArmy]

These burning of Beatles items in these scenes with the Ku Klux Klan were in Potomac, MD!!!!

[lifestraight]

@SoldierUSArmy Didn't they say Texas at the beginning?

[Aria19]

Hey guys I am curious as to what the KKK imperial wizard meant by "mop heads" what group was he referring to? forgive my ignorance

[nnnnnnnp]

he ment the beatles hair.

[lexo30]

I've read the original article. What Lennon said was that the Beatles were 'more popular than' Jesus. This does not mean that he was saying that they were better than Jesus, or religion in general, although I can see how some people would think it would mean that. It was the KKK and the American media in general that made out that John was dissing God. All he himself pointed out was that the Beatles were more popular in Britain than Christianity - which was demonstrably true at the time.

[pleasepleaseme27]

Hey, all this Beatles controversy was all just a HUGE misunderstanding in the first place.

John said that kids aren't being as religious as they should be and said that they paid more attention to The Beatles than Jesus.

HOWEVER, he DID NOT say IN ANY WAY that the beatles were better, more famous, or nicer than Jesus!!

AN EVIL REPORTER TWISTED HIS WORDS, AND LYING IS WRONG WETHER YOU BELEIVE IN JESUS OR NOT!!!

[Gloriamagnificens]

@pleasepleaseme27

WELL SAID...but humans were then and still now are too stupid to understand what Lennon meant.

[LittlePinky82]

One thing the KKK never got with me. They hate Jewish people yet they're Christians and Jesus was a Jew? My head hurts trying to understand them. LOL at the socialism and communism remark. Snark. Uh how could the KKK guy not know what color the Beatles were? Seriously? What a rock concert with no dancing?

[Offsides09]

The South is the last place that needs to be criticizing the

"morals" of anyone person or group. I'm sure the religious

in the South had no problem being associated with the Klan.

What Lennon said was a silly comment. The South of the

1960's had more pressing problems.

[badtown88]

Haha that KKK guy in the suit is so dumb he gives the KKK a bad name lmao. What the fuck is he even saying?

[ColorBlindHeart]

Maybe the wizard should have realized that illiterate inbreds who dress in bedsheets for fun should think twice before they go on camera and speak insultingly about anyone else's appearance.

[rone714]

the secret word for today is

C R A C K E R

[zanysophiex]

I hate the KKK. Go Beatles :)

[elbajapante]

Lets get this correct when the beatles said they was more popular then Jesus! they ment it only in England! Not World Wide! Facts are facts and opinions are opinions! The Beatles where never more popular then jesus then nor now! Google it! Research it! EVERY ONE IS ENTITLED TO THEIR OWN OPINION BUT IN ORDER FOR IT TO BE A FACT IT HAS TO BE CORRECT!

[GrumpyForest]

I belive in Jesus, but I can count. Do you wanna tell me that the beatles r unknown in China, Asia, Jappan, Africa?

[SammyJr3]

Stop being disrespectful to Jesus. I love the Beatles, but we should all give God/Jesus the respect they deserve. If you don't believe in Jesus then whatever. No offense was meant.

[fifiragdoll]

Dance at a Beatles concert and be placed in Room D - DETENTION ROOM.

[HUGAWA]

LENNON Apologize already!

[PedrosProductions]

He did... Well, sort of.

[pinkeyegasms]

The Beatles ARE more popular than Jesus!

[yogafan6500]

I wonder if they did the same threats to Sinead O'Connor, Madonna, and Natalie Maines/The Dixie Chicks. for their controversial anti-christ antics that angered them.

[cublop]

nazy shit

[jericho360]

Still do not know how the KKK thought they were doing 'God's work'. Let us study some things Jesus said, love your neighbor as you love yourself. Hm, pretty simple, but not for the blacks it excludes them. Which does not make sense at all as they are human. They did not follow the bible as it were, and did not follow Jesus, any member of the KKK will probably burn in hell.

[publicitymaker]

kkk= a satanic sekt! if you are a christian you believe this...

they believe they are christians.... but deep in their hearth they know they worship satan!

[johnny10301968]

KKK christian zeal??!!?? MY ASS!!!

[AlternativeIdiot25]

no dancing? aw come on now...

[givenupon]

Spooky.

[BlitzSageFFVI]

Yeah, you know that you're on the wrong side when the KKK is on your side.

[phoenix3430]

very well said

[SubconsciousGatherer]

@BlitzSageFFVI Agreed. Same goes for when the Christians are on your side.

[bluemagickbo]

"if he runs out of earplugs, hes got some cotton!!" LMAO!!

[gittahfiend]

The basic philosophy and belief of the klan is to uphold Chrsitianity?this guy is a LYING WHITE DEVIL !

[JoeFennario]

If he runs out of earplugs he's got some cotton... of course they got some cotton, they're Dixie's finest! No dancing, that's the devil's work. This would be funny if it wasn't true that these people and their prodigy are still out there and now they're making up outrageous stories about Obama, watching Fox News and listening to Rush Limbo. The "culture wars" started with this type of ignorant BS and still linger on.

[roadend78]

the beatles are not english they are scouse.

[dasheriff001]

Iam teh IMPERIAL WIZARD

[PirateDumbell]

ok hold on a minute these kkk guy's call themselves christians well if they were christian and they read the bible where jesus is talked about jesus told everyone to love your fellow man I guess they really dont care about jesus they just want to pick on lennon by the way jesus didnt say to go lynch black people or discriminate against race or have sex with your cousin or have big hate bond fires outside of church what is wrong with these moronic biggits?!?!?!

[johnny10301968]

CHRISTIAN ZEAL MY ASSS!!!

[alabaster30]

@PirateDumbell "bond fires"? You can't even spell! and you're making fun of people!

[chefmarcgirard]

Wow, how ironic that the Christians are supported by clan members.

[thebassdude15]

Haha they mention the Coliseum that is still open in Memphis and, until recently, was used for concerts

[RiaBassChick]

"We will not allow any dancing."...at a concert? What the hell?

[andantinowithaswager]

he's a racist dick head. by the way, the kkk is terrible. they kill people and do horrible things in the name of god. i'm not religious, but what they do is clearly wrong.

[CanadianButterfly]

Why dose that guy suddenly start talking about black people?

[fatcatbuzz]

Those dumb rednecks are probably burning the records because vinyl is black. If they only knew how much them records would have been worth in mint condition instead of destroying the ozone layer.

[daverudynski]

i think people got the hint that the bealtes are more popular than jesus when sgt peppers lonely hearts club band came out.

[cocacolakid113]

lmao wizard

[nasgfan]

Black Cop at 3:02...wow i didnt know they had them in 1966 memphis

[thebassdude15]

Now that is all of Memphis cops

[whotles]

Memphis isn't quite as bad as Birmingham.

[glenjenks]

this guy's less enlightened than someone from medieval times....he's the kind of person that holds the world back....we need more John Lennons and less of these clowns

[jeremiahj13]

The KKK Rob Shelton is the man! I love you, you fought the good fight. I hope you're resting peacefully <3 R.I.P.

[SSSRProduction]

KKK... LULZ

How stupid...

BTW, i didn't know the KKK supported Baptists... :)

[johnny10301968]

The KKK and the bible don,t mix.

[jeremiahj13]

yeh they do.

[johnny10301968]

DIPSHIT!!!

[badtown88]

Wtf is that goon even saying? I feel bad for people like him. They lived out their whole lives without ever having any joy.

[Knucklesdude]

The list of reasons why I hate religion is constantly increasing.

[guyascott]

this prick is the brains in the kkk and he can't tell if the beatles were black or white, god help us...

[LouLuvsFairies]

Amen brother. Lol.

[reidspeed67]

Tennessee/Iran, Police/Taliban. Yanks, they don`t even realise what a frightning bunch of ignorant hipocrites they are!!!!!!

[goaliet]

"We will not allow any dancing, running up the isles"

[jc4jcjcjc20jc]

wow the guy hes interviewing and the cop are just luaghable

what idiots i dont even know what to say please tell me their were some smart people back then

[Merseyrock]

Yes... The Beatles :)

They we summing up their time in their songs

[DonJulioBlanco2002]

Also note that the Memphis police force was still all-white...

[alabaster30]

@DonJulioBlanco2002 Nope. I saw one black cop.

[DonJulioBlanco2002]

Wow!!! "Let's get the KKK's opinion on this matter." Unbelievable.

[paul2008uk]

The Beatles are more popular then the KKK will ever be!

[margirl1980]

yeah why john machain!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Predictamike]

first they burn books and Ideas then they burn people

[shoegalsho]

needing protection!!!!!!! Oh yeah cuz it's so Christian to be violent to others!! If they are such good Christians why is there a threat of violence. Laughable, they just want an excuse to fight!

[kelseyandearth]

"its hard for me to tell through there mop heads and colaberations if there white or black.." what a f***ing loser! leave it the KKK to make things worse!

"if its popular to be black they'd be black..." what a dumb ass! it wasn't popular to be from Liverpool but they never denied it or claimed being something else! they became popular doing what they love.

[tunenito]

To kelseyandearth and all who have responded to this video: Even though I haven't responded to most of the posts here, I've read and appreciated all the comments. Many thanks!

[cowtippingrocks]

No dancing, running up and down the isles or crowding at the stage..... hahaha what a huss.

[YALETOWNHOTEL]

Obama.

[aquabfly12]

Well, when you have the KKK at the helm of your cause, I think its time to re-evaluate your stance on the issue.

[jordo678456]

look at thos nice wholesome, stand-up, lynching, racist, murdering bastard Christians.

And am I the only one sceptical of the title "Imperial Wizard"

[Brizzlerman]

Just looking at this guy he looks like some sort of twisted devil regardless of his beliefs.

[urkingod]

DO NOT JUDGE ~!!!!!! AMEN~!!!? John Lennon We love you~!!! SUCH a BEAUTIFUL LOVING MEN~!!!!

[jasahasch]

don't blame the police, fuck the klan and any of their views.

[ruotze]

Burn the CLAN!

[TheMcCartneySlayer]

"I don't even know if the Beatles are black or white because I'm an ignorant piece of shit KKK cunt!" - Fuckhead With Weird Eyebrows

[thomaszneuf]

look at that guys fuckin eyebrows

grand wizard my ass

[WorkingKlassHero]

Ok people I'll ask you this, don't you think that KKK peace of shit backing this whole ant-Beatle movement, or John saying that Beatles are bigger than Christ?

[plyg]

The KKK committed outright blasphemy when they used the bible to back up segregation.Along with their defending of Christianity.

[BAhern63]

these rednecks probably bought "sgt. pepper"-- hypocrites!

[widerness]

How times have changed,since then.

[Takethisoath554]

you wonder why they stopped touring. this stupid shit. fucking rednecks.

[deeplysarcastic]

why is it when a black man wears a black power shirt it's okay, but a white man does it and he's racist?

[flummapa]

i guess because black power in the days stood for black being equal with white people. Not that black people should have ALL the power and white people NO power att all.

White Power on the other hand stands for..well..i think we all know what White Power stands for.

[VictorPross]

sporty1, you are a real fucking idiot, a real 100% asshole.

[kerrvida]

lol, that guy talking at 1:30 is the biggest idiot

[Lovebug360]

Fuck the KKK

[sportty1]

No fuck you,the KKK is trying to keep this nation with morals.You can believe all you want about them from what you watch and learn in school.The fact is every thing you see on the history channel,tv and learn in school about the KLan is wrong.The KKK is trying to keep whites up,and keep us with some morals.

[beatles1010]

nation with morals?

hating on other races are morals.

Please.

[Samprasisthebest]

sportty1, its people like you that make some of the old (and evil) traditions of America's past, that we would like to forget, never go away. The KKK is trying to keep the nation with morals? How is that, by lynching over 500 black people in the 19th century alone? The KKK is dying and if Barrack Obama becomes elected 44th President (lets hope) then that will nail shut the coffin of the KKK which has been open for too long. The Beatles are the greatest, and furthermore, Jesus loves us all!

[punkidjulian]

fuck you sportty1

[johnny10301968]

FUCK YOU AND THE KKK TOO!!! Are your mother and father brother and sister?

[dubzy81]

christianity is all about forgiveness right? so whats the deal with their hostile reaction? Stupid cunts!!

[MegKM]

but you just reacted with hostility.

[xlnrhl]

ku klux klan are selfish little rats who would sell their grandmothers for a dime or two... As for jesus, its funny how a man who died so long ago still has relevence to the modern man...human nature resists logic and clings to fantasies like christ,bible or whatever...

[kelvinhbo]

i thought i was the only one that think like this, what is it that we can see that they cannot?

[Voxac100b]

What the Police officer should have said was All right lets roll.... hey lets be careful out there!

[ianhalen1000]

John lennon had the perfect opportunity to destroy christianity once and for all, but no, what did he do? he went and apologised.

[WeRAss09]

John Lennon was right not everyone "knows" or believes in Jesus just like Michael jackson if you go into the depths of africa or china you WILL find people who do not know Jesus however they do know Michael and Lennon

[xlnrhl]

yeh,those people are lucky arent they ?
