This is just a playful way of letting the MEXICAN people know that they don't agree with Trump's policy by beating up a pinata in Mexican fashion. Don't even start about peace and love when it's about a man who is clearly a bigot and has insulted so many different people these last two years.

You people would be losing your minds if the situation was reversed. If Hillary had won the election and some random band brought a doll of her on stage and beat the shit out of it...nobody would be saying how awesome it was. There would be nothing but posts about how violent and evil republicans were. How classless it was. Or if an Obama doll was brought on stage and destroyed. Nobody would be saying how awesome it was. Applauding simulated violence against the president of the United States. While complaining that Trump and his followers are spreading hate and negativity. This is some sick stuff. Being that Obama has deported close to 3 million people and bombs kids in Syria, and Hillary was in favor of the US invasion of Iraq and supports (and would have continued with) Obama'a drone program, it wouldn't have bothered me if it were either of them. Fuck Trump... Hillary... Obama ... all of 'em. The band was having fun and it's a joke, so chill. Have a sense of humor. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post killuridols Posted December 1, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted December 1, 2016 There's absolutely nothing controversial or revolutionary in what they did. They are totally jumping on a bandwagon because it is "cool" to be anti-Trump. Where was Axl or Guns N Roses when 9/11 happened? Why didn't he or them stand up against a bad president like Bush? Where were they when lots of injustices perpetrated by and against the United States happened in the last 20 years? Oh Axl was making an album titled "Chinese Democracy" and the title is all the political message you're going to get from it Now what it is pretty "funny" to watch is how none of the big three grabbed the stick and beat the shit out of the Trump doll, huh? 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So if you disagree with somebody's policies - in Mexican tradition - you assemble a big doll of them and communally beat it with a stick? Alright, understood!! I think I'd rather be serious on this than 'lighten up' as you suggest as I find the whole thing infantile in the extreme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Bono Posted December 1, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted December 1, 2016 I'm no fan of Trump but that was absolutely fucking pathetic. Imagine the outrage had Trump supporters done this to a Hillary effigy or an Obama effigy. This shit is pathetic pandering to the lowest common denominator and mob mentality. People thinking this is awesome would be outraged if it was the other way around. We call those people fucking hypocrites. If you support this kind of shit I feel bad for you. I respect Axl's right to have an opinion but make sure your skeletons and closet are clean before you go after a guy for similar things you've done and been accused of. And when you do go after him try to do it in a productive way rather than recreating some sort of lynch style mob scene. Fucking horrid display. It's weak shit for weak minds. 21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they wanted to let their Mexican fans know, in a playful way (however childish that might be to you), that they don't agree with his rhetoric on the whole Mexican issue. Sure, they could have made that clear in many different ways but they chose to do it this way - in Mexican tradition if you will -, but why are you annoyed by that? I mean... big deal, right?

Popular Post The Glow Inc. Posted December 1, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted December 1, 2016 A large part of the people who elected Obama twice now decided to vote for Trump. Instead of calling people names and beating effigies with a bat, his opponents should probably wonder why that happened if they don't want to end up with eight years of Trump in a row... 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KURT19 Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 In my not so humble opinion, that was a disgraceful and despicable act for a Rock N' Roll band. By doing that onstage, the entire band is now on record against the President of the United States of America. Stupid, Stupid, Stupid. ESPECIALLY right before the band expects to collect more AMERICAN DOLLARS for a tour next year. Stupid, Stupid, Stupid. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I'm clearly not alone here as others find it embarrassing also, and I do not know why people always try to personalise these type of arguments - I've never denied the fact that I see Guns as a comedy band, and many of those posts are about general topics such as movies and cricket. Some find it unfunny and childish. You found it ''rawk and roll'' or amusing (or whatever it is you see in it). Now, how do you envision this little spat proceeding? Where do you think we can go on from here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their problem is, that they live in a world, those fascist tell them they live in, without think outside their little box. It's their lack of intelligence that needs to be adressed, not their "concerns". Because if those people were just a bit fucking educated, we wouldnt be having these problems. Its no wonder the less educated white people voted for trump. So you honestly believe that all those people are just idiots? Practically half of the people in Austria are all idiots? Their concerns should not be taken seriously? Wow. Just wow. You are the one living in a bubble, not them. I live in Brussels and see EVERY day what a nice addition muslims are to our society. And yes, I'm worried about their presence here and how they change nieghbourhoods completely and not in a good way. I'm worried about the fact that they beat up gay people in the street, spit at my girlfriend when she is wearing a dress in summer. I'm worried about the fact that my country allows ritual slaughter, even though it goes against all ethics, just to please muslims. I'm worried about the fact they top all crime statistics. I could go on and on, but I will finish by saying that I'm worried that there are too many people like you who make all of this possible. But clearly, according to you, I must be an idiot.
