ridiculous interview with gene simmons
    #8100724 -

http://www.roadrunnerrecords.com/blabbermouth.net/news.aspx?mode=Article&newsitemID=92138

On whether he cares whom he offends:

"Hell, no. I'm too rich to care. People give me a hard time for being a ruthless businessman but these are the kinds of people who cut my grass and take out my trash. I, meanwhile, am deliriously happy.

"Why? Because I get to be me. People say money can't buy you happiness but I have no time for such loser notions. I am happy and I'm hungrier for money now than I've ever been."

On his political views:

"I'll tell you where I stand politically. In terms of social issues, I'm very liberal. I support gay marriages and I think women should rule the world and get paid as much money as men. But in terms of fiscal issues, I'm very conservative. I'm against the welfare state and I support giving people jobs, not charity. In my view, if you're too lazy to work, you need a bitch slap from God.

"In terms of foreign policy, I'm conservative too. I don't buy the idea that if our troops leave the Middle East, the Taliban and al Qaeda would wake up the next day and say 'You know what? I think we should turn over a new leaf and stop trying to blow up the world. Let's just stay here in the desert and read books.' If you think that's gonna happen, you're on crack. These people are nut jobs."



fuck it, i can't believe he is serious, thats about as shitty as a person can get.

I agree with his social and fiscal views...Maybe not women running the world (exclusively), but I think that was a bit of an exaggeration.

On capital punishment:

"Murderers would be put to death, too. I'm sick of all this permissive society bullshit! If someone kills somebody, I don't want to hear how that person's father molested him or whatever. I want to hear that he's been shot.

I think it's cool that he doesn't hold back or try to sugarcoat anything. Arrogant? Yeah. He doesn't care, but he's straight forward and realistic.

"Yes, I've been with Shannon for 25 years but I refuse to get married because I think it's a sham. For one thing, men are poorly designed for monogamy. We tend to be promiscuous. It's biological. Women manufacture one or two eggs a month, during which time the male of the species manufactures 10 billion sperm!

"This tells you that the Bible is correct and a man was designed to 'spread thy seed.' So if I sleep with a lot of women, just think of me as doing the Lord's work."

"No. But Shannon and I are not married and I do not answer to her. We care for each other, but I don't ask her permission to do anything. I am my own man, and I'm also delusional enough to think I'm right about everything. In fact, if I was a benevolent dictator, I think I could eradicate most of the world's problems very quickly. For instance, in my world, drug dealers would be put to death on the spot."

that end part is no good.

When your fans create something called KISS army, you tend to have a pretty over-inflated ego and sense of self satisfaction.

I agree w/ most of what he says, strangely enough.

After one comes, through contact with it's administrators, no longer to cherish greatly the law as a remedy in abuses, then the bottle becomes a sovereign means of direct action.  If you cannot throw it at least you can always drink out of it.  - Ernest Hemingway

If it is life that you feel you are missing I can tell you where to find it.  In the law courts, in business, in government.  There is nothing occurring in the streets. Nothing but a dumbshow composed of the helpless and the impotent.    -Cormac MacCarthy

He who learns must suffer. And even in our sleep pain that cannot forget falls drop by drop upon the heart, and in our own despair, against our will, comes wisdom to us by the awful grace of God.  - Aeschylus

Why should we listen to anything Gene Simmons says? KISS sucks ass...Gene Simmons is rich and famous for being the biggest smelliest idiot of the 70s. Lucky for him, but he clearly has no brains at all and doesn't give a shit about anyone besides himself.

:lol:

What you posted sounds cool to me. The guy is an arrogant asshole though, from what I've seen on TV..

Fame and money fucking corrupts, man. And it has corrupted him to a much lesser extent than a lot of other idiot celebrities. It isn't the person you should be blaming but the fucked up society that put him in the position he is in now.

PS IM DRUNK

It's way too easy to say you'd give all your money to charity or some shit if you were famous. In reality, you'd buy a gold-plated horse and a midget shroom-servant.

Good point. At least he does not throw a veil over his true self whenever engaged with the media. :shrug:

Good to know people are still truthful these days.
