Adam Gopnik Quotes
The reality is simple: every country struggles with madmen and ideologues with guns, and every country-Canada, Norway, Britain-has had a gun massacre once, or twice. Then people act to stop them, and they do-as over the past few years has happened in Australia. Only in America are gun massacres of this kind routine, expectable, and certain to continue.

I have seen this demo of six songs that began floating around in 1996 claiming that Commit Suicide had written those songs. I did have a synth band called Commit Suicide between 1984-1986 with two gentlemen called Jens Andersson and Jens Svensson, and two of the songs on this demo where written and performed by us.
