    Yeah…

    Or maybe theres more to it than we know. I’d actually be shocked if he and his family weren’t receiving death threats for those comments, so I dunno, maybe he didn’t want him and his fans to get shot the fuck up at one if their shows (or at the very least have issues performing due to anxiety over such an event).

    Unfortunately, in the current US, it’s not an irrational fear for someone like him. I can’t say I blame him at all.

    It’s fucking stupid, but here we are.

      Canceling the tour and essentially breaking up the band is what brought all the attention in the first place. My point was that nobody in the US would have heard about this if JB hadn’t made such a big deal.
