Jon Schaffer

[Kurt Cocaine]

Yep, a true patriot. The world needs more like him.

Fucking hell, I think he should be given the benefit of the mental health issues excuse

Why? He's pissed off with what's happening, and rightfully so.

Pissed off at what exactly. They they didn't win a fair election? Or is it something else?

Has he been caught yet? There's tonnes of people grassing him up in twitter. Must be making him feel a little melancholy

A few of the others they're looking for have been, probably reaching the end looking for him

He's on the FBI most wanted list now. Wonder what the rest of the band are going to do when the main guy's stuck in prison for riotous sedition against the country.

They've released a very noncommittal statement:

“We want to thank those of you who have sent words of support in recent days. Some of you have been concerned by our silence, which we understand. We needed some time to properly process the information and find out some facts before we made a statement.

“First and foremost we absolutely DO NOT condone nor do we support riots or the acts of violence that the rioters were involved in on January 6th at the US Capitol building. We hope that all those involved that day are brought to justice to be investigated and answer for their actions.

“With broken hearts we are sending our love and compassion to everyone who has felt pain from the events on January 6th. We are deeply saddened and our hearts go out to the families of the lives lost that day. There are really no proper words to console. Just know we are with you in your shock, grief and pain. Much love to you all.”

Sounds like they're hedging their bets by not actually saying anything against Schaffer personally, but they know they're gonna be out of work for a while.

At the end of the day, Iced Earth is a 1 man band with hired hands. The amount of people who've been in the band make 80s Sabbath seem stable.
They don't want to lose their jobs but really they know this could be it for Iced Earth judging by the people who are abanding them.

Anyone at the Belfast gig back in 2012?

[Trev]

Well Stu Block has changed his profile to "freelance singer/vocalist" and removed any reference to being in Iced Earth, so I'm guessing he's out

[Kunt 4 Life]

The rest will follow soon maybe.


I stand alone, eh, Jon?

[Blitzer666]

Never in my life would I have seen so much knicker wetting by a bunch of Irish metallers.  Its like reading twitter.
He stuck up for what he believes in, so fair fucks to him.
Suppose all the lady boys on here moaning supported illegal blm protests throughout the world?
His band will most likely get more fans, rather than the soys that are burning his cds.
As for people naming family,  friends, employees at the protest, fuck me, thats what Germany did to their fellow country men.

[Yung Led Zeppelin]

Massive lol

Sniffing their nail varnish, softens the brain.

Every single belief that BLM might conceivably encompass, even if taken from the perspective of their strongest opponents, is still less of a falsehood than Trump's "The election was stolen from us!" line. So yeah, fair fucks to him for sticking up for what he believes in, but, echoing wee Led Zep above, massive lol at the thing that he chose to believe in!

As if it was only simply that.

[Black Shepherd Carnage]

It's certainly pretty much the only thing Trump waffled on about for over an hour when kicking off the march that culminated in the invasion.
