Megadeth Frontman Dave Mustaine Sails Off Edge Of Earth, Claims Obama Staged Colorado, Wisconsin Shootings to Push Gun Bans
Marah Eakin reports at The Onion A.V. Club Newswire (not a parody):
After sort-of endorsing Rick Santorum and aligning himself with the "birther" viewpoint earlier this year, notoriously conservative Dave Mustaine is speaking out against President Obama again. This time, the Megadeth
frontman and Rock ‘N’ Jock softball player has accused Obama of
“staging” the shootings in Aurora, Colorado and at the Sikh Temple in
Wisconsin, all so that he could “pass a gun ban.”
In the speech,
which he made last week between songs at a Megadeth show in Singapore,
Mustaine says that Obama is trying to turn the U.S. into “Nazi
America,” and that if things keep going the way they’ve been going,
he’s going to be forced to move away. After a heckler shouts out in
opposition, Mustaine chastises him, saying, “Did you guys pay to listen
to him or me?” Luckily for Mustaine, being a total idiot shitbag is not
one of the offenses punishable by caning in Singapore.
