@mshellr i already have! twice~!
they were my first concert, for my 11th birthday 
…I’d put on my mask, my regulator and fall into the tank with nary a sound….swishhh.
i love how there is only 5 dislikes on this and on a song from today there will be like 500 dislkes that just proves that music was better back in the day
_o_
504life.
@SupernaturalLover67 I agree with super, Forbes magazine reported in June 2009 that the singer earned approximately $100 million in 2008, making her the second-highest earning musician on the magazine’s list after Madonna.
Like her or not, she is very talented and very successful.
Best opening guitar riff i know.
man, i didnt know this album was that old. i live in upstate new york and hear the hip on the radio or in a passing car every day. they have a pretty big fanbase here. then again canada is about a 15 minute drive from here!
89? 89? I was ONE when this came out! Rock on Canadians!
Incredible this was written many years before Katrina, and one of the greatest songs (along with several other Hip tunes) you’ll never hear on the radio.
@TheHideousRevelation what?
@SupernaturalLover67 trollface.jpg

@edctgbujm123
Banned from New Orleans??? I am a New Orleanian and I love this song. To me it says “Hell NO! I am not leaving home no matter what America thinks!”
@ferrier66 that’s quite the education you got there! I am so glad secular debate allows people like you to join in, truly makes the world a better place…
@highwaymantokyo
I dunno about that i think they’re great because they are so well known and relate to alot of people, not saying there one of those mega superstar bands but more than just a band at a bar. Their so unquie you can’t really compare them to anyone.
@highwaymantokyo

Strong Persuasion == M4, apparently.
So much for thier oat to defend the Constitution. Taking away people’s guns when they need them most. That makes me sick. Those soldiers don’t deserve to be called Americans and neither do whoever gave them the orders.
Yeah, cause shooting nonAmericans is sooo much better… what a joke. ALL HUMANS ARE EQUAL!
Nations are a joke, and so is socialism and fascism. You collectivists and statists sure are a crazy bunch…
But surely the homeowners would have the right to shoot them for entering the home???
I remember wen katrina hit i live in eunice la and they came and took my win 94 and s&w model 29 havent seen them since.
These guys are traitors as far as I’m concerned. They knew what they were doing was wrong. How can we get politicians to swear this will never happen again? They took good people’s guns right when they needed them most. They want to flex power and control, not protect tax payers or borders. SCUM!!!
I…am…mortified. South America looks more and more inviting by the day.
the national guard confiscating american’s guns. that is the total opposite of what the national guard is supposed to be doing. yet, you saw them following orders regardless of your rights didnt you? the national guard is null and void.
I think we should do like the Jews and hunt down every fuck one of these cocksucking traitors.
My first targets during an emergency or disaster will be anyone representing or paid by the government.

@YamahaWR200 make that 1 year
@notpcone ” They have NO FUCKING RIGHT to? come up to someone’s HOME with Gun’s drawn!!!2
what u gona do,
what u gona do
when they come for you:-P
anyone who confiscated guns is a NAZI
I’m just disappointed they weren’t killed on sight, this is fucking ridiculous.
@mattxr2i same here. im national guard from 135th 33rd northern illinois. quote 1:47 “you never expect to do this in your own country” then why are you doing it? i agree with you mattxr2i, these soldiers as well as me and you have a right to uphold what our forefathers fought and died for.
remember, we are the militia. without us, they can do nothing.
SO MUCH FOR HONORING YOUR OATH TO PROTECT AND DEFEND THE CONSTITUTION. NOT A SINGLE MAN OR A GROUP OF MEN BUT THE CONSTITUTION. THAT IS WHY WE ARE A REPUBLIC NOT A DEMOCRACY, A NATION OF LAW NOT OF MEN. MILITARY READ THE CONSTITUTION SO YOU KNOW WHAT TO PROTECT AND HONOR YOUR OATHS! OBEY THE CONSTITUTION NOT A MAN!
@YamahaWR200 . . . I hope it’s as far away as 50 years! I fear it will sooner!
@YamahaWR200 . . . I hope it’s as far away as 50 years! I fear it will sooner!
Look up H. R. 645 if you want to see our future.
@mattxr2i Thank God for people like you that still know what the Constitution of the United States stands for and thank you for serving your country.
Fuck them I would hide my guns!!!
But they are not taking them!!!
There is going to be a revolution in the next 50 years… Guaranteed…
The old black tipped, steel cored 30-06 rounds cut through kevlar vests and helmets like a hot knife through butter. Plenty available on gunbroker.
Katrina is a big example of what would happen in a large scale, country/global wise situation like this. The government is our enemy, not our friend. They want to disarm us so they can control us. Look what happened to Nazi Germany.
