Mr. Spooner is 86 years old, a lifetime Republican, he fought in WW2 with Patton's army including The Battle of the Bulge, & was in the Liberation of Paris.


 

When asked recently if he believes in Gay Rights he answered,

What do you think our boys fought for at Omaha Beach?

I have seen much, so much blood and guts, so much suffering, much sacrifice.

For what?
For freedom and equality.

These are the values that give America a great nation, one worth dying for."

Seriously i don't believe this is otep because this shit is stupid! i tell activist and friends about your music and what it stands for but since yesterday it's like your hypocritical! and look around we don't have freedom! laws are everywhere! rules and regulations! where's the free part truth is oversea contries have more freedom than here! the government is afraid of the people! not like here here people fear the government they have all the control not the people so what are they really fighting for? lies corruption racism individualism assimilation etc. there's no freedom here! dam otep i'm a huge fan really i am but like i said i'm wondering if this is really you. and if it is i'm starting to question your music and what it stands for
