Ifwhiteamerica... conclusion

[ericblowtorch]

Has anyone ever seen quotes from the band about the line 'Fuck the Brady Bill,' and if it's meant to be part of what 'conservative say' or literally how the band felt about gun control?

[Lament]

Per Nicky Wire...

"The last lines [F*** the Brady Bill/If God made man they say/Sam Colt made him equal] are about the gun laws that Clinton is trying to bring in. It would disenfranchise the black community, who generally don't have licences. The white rednecks in middle America do have licences, but statistics show they cause as much crime."

Thanks for the quick reply. What's the source?

Nicky Wire, Melody Maker, August 27 1994, page 5 apparently - more here: http://members.home.nl/gerhardnijenhuis/msp/tbtthb1.htm
