David Gunn, de frontman van de Nu-metalband King 810, werd gefilmd toen hij vorige week deelnam aan de protesten aan het Capitool. Eerder was ook al Jon Schaffer van Iced Earth in opspraak gekomen bij deze rellen. Gunn zelf werd reeds gecontacteerd door de FBI, maar houdt vol dat hij niets verkeerd deed. De man was naar eigen zeggen een ‘videoclip’ aan het opnemen. Hij reageerde op Instagram in zijn gekende stijl:
“Dear internet cucks,
“I admit this is me on the steps of the capital building filming our next video. I’m the singer of the most hated band in America… where else would I be ?
“Sorry to disappoint everyone but I cannot also admit to being a racist, bigot, homophobe, sexist, fascist, alt right (or whatever you whack jobs are on this week) etc. etc.“I appreciate the compliments on my jacket however it is not for sale (altho our new album is)…
“I was not trying to keep this under wraps. As you can see I’m swagged the fuck out with no mask in front of 100 cameras because I’m doing nothing wrong. The Feds have phoned me already and there isn’t a single image of me “rioting” or going inside the building. I’m not as dumb as my hair style suggests.
“I couldn’t care less if you stop following me or stop listening to my music because I never cared to begin with. (see red queen)”
