Eagles of Death Metalin Jesse Hughes: ”Kaikilla pitäisi olla oikeus aseeseen”

Eagles of Death Metalin nokkamies Jesse Hughes puhui tuoreessa iTélé-televisiokanavan tekemässä haastattelussa mm. ihmisten oikeudesta aseeseen. Hän kysyy, että pelastiko Ranskan tiukka aselaki ketään kuolemalta kesken Eagles of Death Metalin keikan tapahtuneen terrori-iskun. Hughes sanoo myös, että siihen asti kunnes kenelläkään ei ole asetta, kaikilla pitäisi olla.

”Did your French gun control stop a single fucking person from dying at the Bataclan? And if anyone can answer yes, I’d like to hear it, because I don’t think so. I think the only thing that stopped it was some of the bravest men that I’ve ever seen in my life charging head-first into the face of death with their firearms. I know people will disagree with me, but it just seems like God made men and women, and that night guns made them equal. And I hate it that it’s that way. I think the only way that my mind has been changed is that maybe that until nobody has guns everybody has to have them. Because I’ve never seen anyone that’s ever had one dead, and I want everyone to have access to them, and I saw people die that maybe could have lived, I don’t know… I wish I knew for sure if they could have had a better chance because there were some real angels, real wonderful people in that show that aren’t alive today and I really wish they were.”
