With the hateful political climate we're living in, this song, simplistic as it is, seems particularly relevant to me.
http://www.last.fm/music/Chumbawamba/_/The+Day+the+Nazi+Died Open your eyes time to wake up Enough is enough is enough is enough We're taught that after the war the Nazis vanished without a trace But batallions of fascists still dream of a master race The history books they tell of their defeat in forty-five But they all come out of the woodwork on the day the Nazi died They say the prisoner of Spandau was a symbol of defeat Whilst Hess remained imprisoned and the fascists they were beat So the promise of an aryan world would never materialise So why did they all come out of the woodwork on the day the Nazi died The world is riddled with maggots--the maggots are getting fat They're making a tasty meal of all the bosses and bureacrats They're taking over the board rooms and they're fat and full of pride And they all came out of the woodwork on the day the Nazi died So if you meet with these historians I'll tell you what to say Tell them that the Nazis never really went away They're out there burning houses down and peddling racist lies And we'll never rest again until every Nazi dies
I like!
No thanks!

It is certainly not ok that there are people out there like Glen Beck and Rush Limbaugh feeding the lunatic fringe, either.

It is certainly ok to express your opinion, loony as it may be, but threatening violence? There has to be another way.

What if you're carrying a gun because you're on the president's side and know there are racist boneheads in the crowd who want to kill the president?
I would say that people like Glen Beck and Rush Limbaugh are partly responsible for the lunatic fringe. Especially Rush Limbaugh, he's been doing this for how many years?

I think it's interesting to note that every last one of these loonies constantly and consistently interrupts themselves mid-sentence to start another string of bullshit because they've caught themselves lying and have to start digging a different hole.
I don't care if it is legal to carry a gun. It's not ok to carry a gun to hear the president speak.
