I didn't say they were baby-killers, I said they wrote an offensive song intended purely to shock people. No different than Gwar or the Mentors, in that specific song. Or "Stealing People's Mail."

Don't get me wrong, I am actually a fan of the Dead Kennedys, except for their last album, which was abominable and I try to fotget ever existed. Like the last Clash album.

Still, I have to agree with Joel Schalit when he wrote, in _We Owe You Nothing: The Punk Planet Collected Interviews_, when he wrote: "[The DK were] arguably the most important band in the history of punk politics. ... [T]he DKs were instrumental in providing American punk that transcended the nihilism, ignorance, and stupidity of the early hardcore scene." (p. 33) Baby killers they were not. -B.]

Lyubo, bratsy, lyubo, lyubo, bratsy, zhit!
