Dave Mustaine, the man behind Megadeth, summarizes his politics, religion, and general outlook on life:
It’s pretty simple for me, really. I want to be able to carry a gun; listen to whatever music I like; eat, drink, and be merry; and not hurt anyone else (the exception, obviously, being self-defense). It’s an abbreviated Sermon on the Mouth: treat other people the way you want to be treated.
Stuff From Hsoi 
Great quote.
It’s always amazed me that the people most often saying we need to accept this person’s or that person’s lifestyle are the very ones telling me that I can’t do this (carry a firearm) or that (chow down on a greasy hamburger with salty fries as a side).
Do as I say, not as I do.
Remember, being “progressive” and “open-minded” means “agrees with me”.
