Has-been Megadeth singer (& Santorum pal) tells audience: Obama staged Aurora, sikh temple shootings

Rightwingers have truly lost their minds:

Forget birtherism, how about… mass-shootingism?

Dave Mustaine, the frontman of veteran heavy metal band Megadeth, who has previously expressed his beliefs that President Obama was not born in America, told the audience at his band’s August 7 show in Singapore that the president staged all the recent mass shootings in order to get a gun ban passed:

“Back in my country, my president,” he paused and made a gag gesture with his mouth, “is trying to pass a gun ban so he’s staging all of these murders like the Fast and Furious thing down at the border and Aurora, Colorado, and all the people that were killed there. And now the beautiful people at the Sikh temple. God.”

Unintelligible jeers are heard throughout, but one attendee clearly shouted: “Hey, we love Obama!”

“I was talking to JD our promoter here tonight, what a great guy,” he continued, “I was saying, ‘I don’t know where I’m gonna live if America keeps going the way it’s going because it looks like it’s turning into Nazi America.’ And he said, ‘Move down here to Singapore.’”

Mustaine has attacked our commander in chief on foreign soil!
Expect conservatives to organize a Dixie Chicks boycott a week from never.

His guitar playing is only so-so and his singing is horrible even by heavy metal standards.

He can stay in Singapore and never come back.

Douchebag.

He was batshit crazy to start with. At least a quarter of Megadeth's songs are conspiracy theories, and that's being generous.

He just went from nutty non-political conspiracy theorist to nutty right wing conspiracy theorist. It wasn't a big jump.
