Riddle me this, Batman: how can every leftist musician “deny” Trump the “right” to play their songs at his rallies, but Eddie Vedder et al can mashup Stranglehold to their gun control desires with impunity?
By the way, Stranglehold is one of the greatest guitar-driven songs ever. The solo is iconic. Toe Jam isn’t fit to shine Nugent’s shoes.
And Eddie Vedder tries to come across as some great guy, yet he refused to let into the Rock Hall Toe Jam’s inaugural drummer Dave Abbruzzese because he hates Dave, even though Abbruzzese‘s drumming arguably helped put that band on the map.
Eddie Vedder can suck it.
“No one should live in fear of gun violence—in their schools, neighborhoods, or anywhere,”
I don’t, and there is basically 100% gun ownership around here.

I hate that the local radio stations insist on playing lots of Pearl Jam, as if they are supposed to be this amazing act. I’ve always found them to be whiny and pretentious.
The democrats blindsided the US gun owners in 1968. Now we are ALWAYS on our guard. Any time you agree to negotiate your gun rights away you know you are up against a stacked deck!
No wonder that in 1941, just days before the Pearl Harbor attack, Congress reaffirmed Second Amendment rights and prohibited gun registration. In 1968, bills to register guns were debated, with opponents recalling the Nazi experience and supporters denying that the Nazis ever used registration records to confiscate guns. The bills were defeated, as every such proposal has been ever since, including recent “universal background check” bills.
The lies we have been told over the years...
1962 We ONLY want to register handguns. Rifles will not be affected!
1964, We ONLY want to register ALL firearms, not ban them.
1968 We ONLY want to register all guns, and ban the import of foreign Saturday Night Specials, and 5-shot bolt action army surplus rifles! (they got the ban).
1970, We ONLY want to ban small American handguns. Rifles will not be affected!
1976 We ONLY want to ban ALL handguns! Rifles will not be affected!
1981, Actress Lee Grant on Good Morning America (ABC) screams...”THE NRA IS A RIFLE ORGANIZATION! THEY SHOULD GIVE UP THEIR HANDGUNS AND THEY CAN KEEP THEIR RIFLES!”
1984, they came for the rifles.
Alright LET’S NEGOTIATE GUN CONTROL!
WE have the guns, you want them. What will you give up to US to get those guns? You have noting but threats and bluster.
And WE still have the guns. End of negotiations.
Pearl Jam beta males get bitchy with Uncle Ted. This won’t end well for them.
Ted is about as pro-gun as anyone can get. He will not like this one bit. He has a weekend show on RAV.
Eddie Vedder of Pearl Jam is a used wad of toilet paper.
Who owns the rights to the song?
