Discovered recently that Electric Wizard were kinda dicks back in the day. "At the time, we were pretty bad people. I got arrested for arson of a car, outside a police station. Tim [Bagshaw] went to nick a crucifix off a church roof so we could use it onstage..."

R. L. Burnside killed a man "possibly at a craps game."

Varg of ~~Mayhem~~ Burzum burned a couple churches and killed a bandmate.

I could list other examples, but would like to hear from other people and other music genres.

Cheb Khaled, one of my favorite singers since I was a kid, fleed from France to Morocco after France legalized LGBTQ marriage.

Was he afraid he would get LGBTQ married?? What a rando.

Desperately trying to find that meme of Bernie Sanders where he says that he'll make gay marriage mandatory if he becomes president. "And if you're not gay, too bad. I'm your husband now and we're in LLLLOOOOOVVVEEEEE"

Description/Caption

Three pane comic of Bernie Sanders speaking to you and saying the following while powering up like in a comic:

  1. "When I'm President, everyone will be married to me."
  2. "If you're not gay... too bad!"
  3. "I'm your husband, and we're in love!"

Weird Al Yankovic is... really just an all around awesome person and probably won't show up anywhere on this thread.

Cool answer, but ignores the question, no?

I wanted to inject a bit of wholesome into a question that will be littered with pedos, murderers and white supremacists. In the modern world it's way too easy to focus on the negative and forget that some people actually do live up to your expectations.

I didn't just want to troll with an off-topic response but make sure there was a glimmer of hope.
