>I would listen to this music and I would get angry at him, for saying [in the song "God"] that he didn't believe in God, that he just believed in him and Yoko, and that he didn't believe in the Beatles.

Hinckley is a genuine schizo who thought he was having telepathic communications with Jodie Foster who told him to kill Reagan. Reagan survived, and Hinckley sought psychiatric treatment and remains under monitored release.
Chapman was just an angry loser who wanted to get famous by killing someone he hated
>some countries don't even allow life sentences
if it's because they're executing them, it makes a certain degree of sense
life sentences are simultaneously excessively cruel and insufficient punishment

I applaud the collapse of israeli-run, ineffective, state justice systems, and a retvrn to vigilante justice and clan-based vendettas as the primary forms of settlement
>it's okay to roam free after shooting people if the reason is that you're fricking crazy, surely it won't happen again
American justice.
I was watching worlds toughest prisons and the guys in Greenland have their own comfy rooms with microwaves and shit but the ones transfered from Denmark all said they missed it there because "the guards cared they would ask you if you're ok and maybe give you a sandwich or something"
I wouldn't mind NEETing danish prison for a few years.
>American justice
Americans at least imprison people. In Europe you gang rape a little kid and get sent to timeout with an Xbox and room service for 2 years. Murder gets you 5
>ha ha we won yes fricking American capitalists good riddance now if you'll excuse me my entire family and I have to get back to sewing 400 new pairs of Nike shoes for 10 cents a day or we'll all starve to death
You lost. Your brothers in arms died in the jungle for nothing. Your countrymen hate you. You will be a failure until you quietly pass away to the grave and are forgotten, loved by no one.
>no!!! you can't have a stable factory job and support your family!!! >you have to stock shelves and drive for uber and grubhub and sell your blood plasma at the same time!!!
Why does mccartney look like an old lesbian that's had too much plastic surgery. Have you ever read a news story that mentions him having plastic surgery
They (they being plural because there's actually five or six known "Andrew W.K."s out there) don't want to just come out and admit it because they know it would tank their career
It's kind of Lennon's fault being famous worldwide and casually walking around the streets with no bodyguards. Statistically a psycho or stalker is going to frick your shit up eventually. I worry about Lucas wandering around LA and going to cheap food courts as a billionaire.
>John in 1967 >write A Day In The Life, Strawberry Fields Forever, Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds, Fool on the Hill, I Am The Walrus >John in 1972 >just writes some basic blues rock and a few ballads

He was the best member of one of the best bands of all time though. Either him or McCartney, its hard to tell since they get credited for all the same songs. I just know its not George.
This is the part where you ask me but what about Ringo and I laugh at you
Maybe at the beginning but by the end of the Beatles it was pretty much Paul's band. Lennon just stopped giving a shit while Paul tried to not make it all fall apart
>I just know its not George.
George Martin was the only reason "Lennon's" songs seemed sophisticated or quality. All of his solo work is basic and bland, if it didn't have his name attached to it nobody would've bought it and pretended it was anything special.
>no particular reason
His music was absolute pile of shit, I can imagine just some guy listening to his shit on repeat on company/office radio day after day for years and deciding to off the homosexual.
'Imagine' by itself is enough.

Forrest Gump is the essence of boomerslop.
And Lennon had it coming.

Because Lennon died and Reagan didn't.
Reagan did die, actually.
That’s news to me

Honestly tho I imagine myself having conversations with prime Jodie Foster too
Hinckley was working on the orders of H.W. Bush look into it
The CIA usually tries to pay off their employees at least a little
>God and heaven and the Beatles?"
Holy Trinity.
So he was the typical christ-larping /misc/tard?
no religion?
Don't believe in modern love
He was a big phoney.
Did this homosexual really wear an army jacket around as some sort of ironic frick you to actual vets?
You lost. Vietnam won.
>ha ha we won yes fricking American capitalists good riddance now if you'll excuse me my entire family and I have to get back to sewing 400 new pairs of Nike shoes for 10 cents a day or we'll all starve to death
lmao okay buddy

Every Viet chick I’ve seen has the hots for Americans so I’ll take this outcome.
Seems in character for John
this pic doesn't work because he got shot in the back
you can buy shit like this at an army surplus store. absolutely asinine opinion on your part
What does that have to do with anything he said, you non-sequitur spewing moron?
He was a Brit in the 1960s. They were about 4x as insufferable back then as they are now.
>not muh heckin vetorinos
>they honorably raped Vietnamese children for our freedom
>show some respect
reminder that forrest has blood ties to the klan
And aids (probably)
Straight white men don't get aids.
Not even clams?
atheists dont believe in objective morality so you dont need a reason to kill them
You do if you believe in objective morality.
kek
ironic..
Most atheists believe in the Gaia hypothesis, or at least used to.
Dawkins and his cult are just fringe weirdos.
What's the real reason why this guy got killed?
You know why
Homophobia
I don't know
what would he think of Mao Zedong if he was alive today?
Wait was there actually a reason?
t. zoomer
Yes
>t. boomer
Paul died in the mid-60s and Lennon played along with the Faul charade until he became such a liability the deep state murdered him
>okay Fake Paul, now we want you to do voice Rupert the Bear and do his theme song
why does the 'Deep State' always want the stupidest shit? can we elect a new one?
Why does mccartney look like an old lesbian that's had too much plastic surgery. Have you ever read a news story that mentions him having plastic surgery
This is apparently this guy by the way. Look how happy John looks and not haunted by having to live a lie
Paul always had soft features, that's why he was the popular one with teen girls back then
Would he have died if he never dated Yoko Ono?
yeah everyone dies
Yoko's later (musical) work is actually pretty decent
He got shot because he was an imposter, the guy who killed him (this guy) was the real John Lennon
It's crazy that people don't believe him, I guess lying really pays in this fricked up world
i still remember when Andrew W.K. did a Q&A thread on this very site and avoided all the questions about how he isn't a real person
answered all the stupid meme questions though, interesting.
They (they being plural because there's actually five or six known "Andrew W.K."s out there) don't want to just come out and admit it because they know it would tank their career
It's kind of Lennon's fault being famous worldwide and casually walking around the streets with no bodyguards. Statistically a psycho or stalker is going to frick your shit up eventually. I worry about Lucas wandering around LA and going to cheap food courts as a billionaire.
This was back in the Beatles days. Wasn’t really till post-Beatles that he turned into a real hippie.
My only regret in life is that I was born too late to shoot john lennon.
>Baby, you're a rich gay israelite
This is so basic and juvenile that it's hilarious

Man he was awful.
Just a cheeky scouse lad
CWAP YER HAWNDS
The c**t almost ruined the entire concert with a bullshit madeup thing like depression. He was right to do so.
He was the best member of one of the best bands of all time though. Either him or McCartney, its hard to tell since they get credited for all the same songs. I just know its not George.
This is the part where you ask me but what about Ringo and I laugh at you
John's songs are uniformly better than Paul's, Paul has a few fantastic songs like Hey Jude but Lennon is the main reason they're legends now
Maybe at the beginning but by the end of the Beatles it was pretty much Paul's band. Lennon just stopped giving a shit while Paul tried to not make it all fall apart
>I just know its not George.

Imagine (heh) getting filtered this hard. Revolution is awesome. inb4 Paul comes here trying take credit for it like a gay.
Let's see Chapman's writing credit
That scouser homosexual got what he deserved
The problem with scousers is that they think they're more funny than they actually are
>Beats women
>Extremely israeli
>Post Beatles breakup
He really didnt have any allies when he was shot
>Lennon offered "Queer israelite"
>He parodied, "More like A Cellarful of Boys"
>"Have you come to blackmail him? If not, you're the only bugger in London who hasn't."
>"Baby, you're a rich gay israelite"
Brutal
Remember when John Lennon raised money for a black supremacist, who went on to murder a woman and then be executed?
Funny how now there’s a barrage of Lennon hate on the internet now…mad innit
