  • This is not even a news story. It's just cheap publicity by and for a pathetic politician. And the news reporters got the year wrong... Lame.

  • He's dead. Why do they still hold this shit against him?

  • Jim ha subito ingiustamente gli errori e l'arretratezza di quei tempi,un'uomo che combatteva per la tua libertà e per i tuoi diritti!Un'UOMO contro tutti e tutto!

  • long live the lizard

  • Jim shook up the powers that be ...gettin arrested on stage for. baiting the pigs is fkn Legendary ! Rip JDM ..God bless you !

  • Only in america or at least white american Media, does the news reports focus on legal issues than the music or Art the person made.... I mean COME ON!!

  • the person who should be pardoned was not Jim Morrison but James Douglas Morrison, just saying...

  • Wild Child!

  • Whoever controls the media,controls the mind. - Jim Morrison

  • @ChapterBlackSaga and to give u a more proper answer: he consciously used death and the threat of death in the name of ambition. I recognize his poetry as i appreciate the wonderful music the Doors was capable to produce

    I question its inner political, ethic and philosophical meaning, which is very debatable and misleading as some of the thesys the german nazis assumed and other psycotics

    He was colliding against the establishment constraints, but from a more right wing side in more than a sense
