I would think it was disgusting if people simulated violence against those two as well. The world needs more love and acceptance of those with opposing views. More tolerance. And less hate. The world needs more love and acceptance of those with racist, homophobic, hateful, sexist views? Yeah... no... fuck that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mayroses Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 Violence is racism and xenophobia. Proposing construction at the border is violent. The Guns only showed their support to the Latin people. It was great! I love it even more! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This thread being the perfect example. It is interesting from a cultural and sociological point of view to see how we as a society have altered our perception and estimation of global leaders/public figures and even celebrities. I think if this were 1991 and Guns N' Roses did that to a George H.W. Bush 'pinata', it would have gone down in pop. culture infamy. Even as late as 2003, a la The Dixie Chicks, it was considered faux pas to use a public forum to decry a presidency. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the 'tards would obey the law (imagine that) we wouldn't need a wall to protect us from the violence they bring.

Do you think there should be open borders? You have no idea how much heroin flows across that border. A wall isn't happening. First off, it would cost too much money to build it. Second, there are parts of the border that can't have a wall due to the land itself. Third, good old "Pilsbury Doughboy" Newt has said that the wall was used as a campaign gimmick. It was NEVER intended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silverburst80 Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 Axl seems so calm amongst all that kerfuffle, why didn't anyone think to bring out a pinata for him in the 90's on the Illusion tour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billsfan Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 3 hours ago, EvanG said: My sentiments exactly. I don't understand what the fuzz is about. I get it if people think it's childish, whatever, but some people really seem to be offended here... maybe they're just disappointed Axl isn't the white trash redneck they thought he was from One In A Million. This is the most logical thing I've read. I personally voted trump and I don't care who knows it here or who's butt hurt over him making some offensive comments because words apparently hurt more than physically harming someone... but bottom line, pinanta or not, a lot of the people who are backing the band in this ironically dislike trump so the hypocrisy there is hilarious Bottom line it's an embarrassing moment for the band. It's childish and the band shouldn't be proud of it, frankly it's not like them doing it is making me boycott gnr but it's just a reminder that bands and celebrities really need to stay away from politics. Im not offended at bashing trump... but what I am offended at is that they spent so much time and effort on putting a piñata together, and busting it versus playing a locamotive, or even putting out new material, or having a therapy/mediation with Izzy and working things out. Screw getting Adler back in the band for an appetite set when we can spend our time bashing Donald trump. There's just more important things to be worrying about... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PeterNorth Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 This has to be the dumbest thing they've done since the Spaghetti Incident. Instead of a fake Donald Trump on stage, how about a real life version of Izzy and Steven instead. Now that's something that would appeal to nearly the entire fan base. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin Riggs Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 Hopefully this blows up in the media and people boycott any future shows in the USA. Maybe that'll force them to release a new album since they'll be losing $$ and will need something exciting to bring people around. Being a relevant band releasing new music and also making douchey political statements is one thing...being a nostalgic band who only seem to be in it for the $$ and also making douchey political statements is a pretty pathetic look. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Modano09 Posted December 2, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted December 2, 2016 1 hour ago, Billsfan said: Well nowadays the politically correct would claim that it's "racist" when that has nothing to do with racism, right?! And off the record, I normally don't agree with @Apollo but I couldn't agree more on his Original post. If that's an OBAMA pinanta it's considered racist, if it's a hillary piñata then it's considered sexist , promoting violence against women and every women's lib group starts whining and protesting sexism. So yeah... Apollo wins the internet for the day lol Well if 8 years ago, a guy like Kid Rock was hanging an Obama pinata it would probably seem racist because the only real controversial thing Obama had done at the time was get elected president while being black. Now if Obama had based his campaign on calling rednecks rapists and blaming all of America's problems on them, it would be a fair comparison. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
