No Connection no ideal no stratagy WOW LIKE OMG LETS TOATALLY GET A BUNCH OF MORONS AND DO SOME REALLY STUPID CRAP IT WILL LIKE TOTALLY BE THE COOLEST THING EVER. Yet why do the intelegent look down on you? I know I am not being nice but it is still true none the less. LMAO there is sooo much crap in this video.

[AltusDarkHart]

Why isn't there more connection between the spirit of resistace in music and political organising? BECAUSE PUNK DIED AT THE TURN OF THE 90 FROM ALL THESE PATHETIC VERMIN LISTENING TO ALL THIS CRAP MTV SPEWS OUT. If you wanted to know about punk you should of asked a punk and not the easy source of info that is complete crap. and may i say .I.. ..I. the american empire

[Moonwez]

There could've been some better music out there. I could care less about your political stance, but this music sucks ass, especially that last song. Is there no good taste in music anymore?

Bands against Bush should join up with Bands 4 Ron Paul. whatya think?
