Green Day Shocks ABC Execs With Anti-Trump Chant During The American Music Awards
Last night, during a live broadcast of the American Music Awards on ABC, punk legends Green Day performed their latest single “Bang, Bang,” as scheduled. But they surprised ABC reps by adding a special message for president-elect Donald Trump in the middle of the song. According to TMZ, ABC reps were thrown “completely off guard” when the band broke into a chant of “No Trump! No KKK! No fascist USA!” during the song’s breakdown, inspiring a standing ovation after the band’s performance.

That's great about Green Day. And really, why should it matter to ABC? If they didn't have to bleep them why shouldn't they make their statement?

[elisi]

This. After all, they let all the fascists say what they want...

Honestly, my pleasure.

I sort can't not share things when I come across them, and I hope they can help or inform others too. <3

Also, I don't dare to hope, but that link is tempting me to.

It's such a small thing in the overall scheme of things, but even little rebellions like that make such a huge difference for *my* morale at least. Public displays of solidarity are helpful right now.

Same here. It a simple, but very effective, way of uniting people.
