\nI have been sitting with this rant brewing inside my head for days now, and I just needed
\nto get the words down finally. I love Dimebag Darrell and PANTERA too much to stand by
\nand let this sort of thing happen. You would think with all the millions of fans that Dime
\nhas, that maybe someone (other than me!) would have the balls to say or do something
\nabout it!!<\/p>\n

We live in a brutal world… in a mostly heartless, thankless society. I know my America that I once
\nknew is crumbling down around me… and that our freedoms are pretty much gone!<\/p>\n
Are we that stupid that we cannot see how robotic (and devoid of feeling) we have all become,
\nthanks mainly in part to the media, for doing nothing all day and night but report on
\nall the horrifying things that happen in life? I mean, who really needed to see that poor woman’s
\nface after her eyes were eating out by that crazed monkey??<\/p>\n
We did! It’s been all over the news for the past two days, overtaking all this drama
\nabout the shootings at Fort Hood long enough to take our attention away from that
\nterrorist event. (Yes, President Barack Hussein Obama. If it looks, sounds and smells like a terrorist..
\nguess what? IT IS A TERRORIST!)<\/p>\n
In closing, here is the actual letter I just wrote today to Fox News program “On The Record”, hosted by Greta Van Susteren, in an attempt to bring focus to this “highly exploitative trash” painting that depicts Dime’s final moments on planet earth… as if it were nothing more than some cartoonish event.<\/p>\n

Greta and staff,<\/p>\n Let me first say that I have chosen “On The Record”, out of any other news program I wanted to contact you about this extremely controversial 2005 painting by artist Tom Sanford Currently, I am the world’s most widely followed heavy metal music journalist since This painting by Mr. Sanford is nothing more than exploitative trash… and I feel
\non Television, because I think you are the most fair and skilled news team going today.<\/p>\n
\nthat is going back on auction (see that info here<\/a>) via Phillips de Pury & Company.<\/p>\n
\nI began my work in 2005, immediately after my hero, Darrell “Dimebag” Abbott of PANTERA &
\nDAMAGEPLAN (bands), was shot on stage five times at The Alrosa Villa in Ohio on
\nDecember 8th, 2004, while performing with the latter act. I am clearly the most published
\nof online journalists, having been regularly featured at top metal news dot com’s, such as Metalundergound,
\nBravewords and Bloody Knuckles and about fifty others around the planet. Just Google my name for
\nadded sources.<\/p>\n
\nneeds to be confronted.<\/p>\n
