I am a hardcore punk from Los Angeles, that's been in the scene since 1979. Original member of the Hollywood LADS, part-time socialist and cat wrangler.

Don't treat people like you wouldn't want to be treated. We are all just trying to be happy without unnecessary bullshit.

I don't own a calendar. I don't own a clock. I can tell that time has passed because the onion has grown.
@[email protected] Background checks will stop some of these, especially if you force background checks for all sales, with no exception. There are just too many loopholes, like gun shows, private party sales etc. The thing is, the US is saturated with guns, and it will take many years to put a dent in this.
@[email protected] I had a friend killed by the Santa Monica PD in 1994, another two friends killed by gangs in the 80s and early 90s. Had another friend shot and paralyzed, when he intervened in a domestic violence situation....and I was shot once...at a shooting range, go figure.
@MightyWilltor @[email protected] I am a long time gun owner...since the 1970s. I fully support universal background checks, and limiting access to "military" style firearms.

Whiskey a Go Go, one of the most important and well-known clubs, opened its doors for the first time on January 16, 1964. The club was also the launch pad and starting point for many punk rock bands.

The picture was taken in August 1980
