Fantastic! Way to open up a can of wicked-cool sarcasm on our culture. This is a great dictation of where we are now in society.

Great work, Dave and it certainly speaks toward the tendency of the right-wing wackos in this country who feel Obama is trying to disarm them, thus making their pile of Ramen noodles a target for neighborhood bullies, the Jew, the Mexicans, the Blacks or anyone else they feel is against them.

I seriously have no idea where this country is headed, but I guess I have a pretty good Idea when I listen to WAR PIGS by black sabbath-haaaaa! Thanks again for the awesomeness Mike

great as usual!
But I was just wondering what's the deal with Colt 45?
I've seen it in a couple of your pieces now, like the Menace II Society/Sobriety.
All I know is that its a beer and that we don't get it in Australia
👍: 0 ⏩: 2
ahh ok
thought it may have some relevance
oh and yea, despite what people may think, it is quite hard finding fosters in a pub in Australia
Come to think of it... I don't think I've ever seen it in a bar/pub
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
I guess I just think the label looks visually cool with its play of primary colors-The Fosters can looks cool too!

Another piece of yours that kicks ass. Love your stuff, Dave. (May I call you Dave?)
(By the way, those 2 dudes (or gals) questioning Tupac's, Malcolm's and Che's free thinking aren't getting any points from me.)

First off I really like this piece and almost everything else you do. The only real crit that I have is with putting Tupac into the piece. Everyone else that you have up there is a political figure and protested against something or was a symbol of the movement. They all died for their beliefs, except Obama. To me Tupac was a gangster and a thug that died doing what gangsters do, talking shit about others and getting killed for it. Aside from that I think it's a great piece.
