My first Maiden album was Live After Death. On vinyl double album in a gatefold sleeve. The artwork was gorgeous. The music rocked.

My next was Powerslave. One of my all time favourite albums.

#BigGavPlays Iron Maiden - Seventh Son of a Seventh Son

The first full Maiden album I heard, picked it up on cassette after hearing Can I Play With Madness on the radio when Ur was in the charts

Still my all time favourite album of theirs

GOP Summary: Groypers vs. Gropers

The Groypers are mad at the Gropers for being Gropers and not Groypy enough to manifest their race war fantasies.

The Gropers don’t like the Groypers but need them as pawns to keep stoking the threat of race wars.

You’re all caught up.

Charlie Kirk: Joe Biden should be "put in prison and/or given the death penalty for crimes against America"

I hadn’t seen this. Kirk, the moderate free speech guy who did politics the right way per some liberals (!), called for Biden to be executed.

Meanwhile Joe Biden put out a very strong statement condemning Kirk’s killing.

Both sides!

And just like that, quoting Charlie Kirk is deeply offensive to Charlie Kirk fans

Do Fox News hosts and commentators agree with their colleague Brian Kilmeade that the United States should "just kill" homeless people?

He still has a job. No apology. No retraction.

Just let us know, Fox.

It’s possible to condemn a person’s death without glorifying their life. We can acknowledge the tragedy of a life lost while still speaking honestly about their beliefs and actions. Compassion doesn’t require silence, and honesty doesn’t erase humanity.

Opinion | Charlie Kirk Didn’t Shy Away From Who He Was. We Shouldn’t Either.

Matthew Dowd was fired for accurately saying Kirk was divisive. Yet Kilmeade will face zero repercussions for saying we should euthanize the homeless. Liberals and any sane human has every right to be upset about the current climate.
