It was 32 years ago tonight. Where were you?

Dimebag Darrel of Pantera was shot and killed 8 years ago today.

Exactly. He meant their popularity was overwhelming. And not necessarily in a good way rather in a WTF did we get ourselves into way. No one knew the scale of blissful insanity they were going to cause.

Lennon was quite humble in fact. Another fact is; the newspaper/media (government) LOVES to spin stories to suit an agenda (and for shock value). The government wanted to deport Lennon for his stance on peace which was against war (Vietnam) and Nixon didn't want people to want that. So they try to get him on pot possession instead. Yup, marijuana which, is slowly becoming legal. Go figger!


High profile people who are advocates for peace, tend to get killed.

Says who?


Murder is always more shocking than some self inflicted death. Not saying it's any easier to cope with but being SHOT is far worse than dying from something that could've should've been prevented, ya know?

first 3 events: school
last 4 events: on the job

don't remember lennons murder, maybe I was lost in space that year.

No idea I was 2 lol.

That may be true, but it wasn't as BIG a news event if you compare them side to side, or if you fucking REMEMBER!

Some people give credence to so many insignificant celebrities who talk the talk, but don't walk the walk...


John Lennon's advice was pretty insignificant to most people back then, much like Clint Eastwood talking to an empty chair(Obama)

You still can

Excuse me...JFK was 1963.

Just a gleam in my fathers eye.

Oh and let me add, i never answered the question, or said whether i gave a shit either one was gone, because at the time i didn't care to be honest.

Was on our school bus. The driver had the radio on (was the next morning) and she pulled the bus over because she was visibly upset. We could see she was crying. She announced to us that a great man and musical icon had been killed. I knew who he was but others on the bus didn't. I was 14.

Don't forget the death of Elvis...

you're just jealous cause your generation sucks so bad

way true, the media practically ignored his killing. said as little about it as possible. didn't want too much attention given to a revolutionary, a fee thinker and someone who actually was speaking out

I wonder if it was a professional hit (no pun - assassination)
maybe he was going to do some expose that the NWO did not want, he was that sort.

Sophmore in high school.

I was in the reincarnation pool, waiting for a new body to become available.

I was 11 years old attending a 4-H sponsored gun safety class in rural America. It was 13 days until my 12th birthday. I was born at precisely 11:11 on 12/21/69...
