Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. The mayor of Vorst, Belgium, has officially banned an upcoming Disturbed concert, citing public safety concerns stemming from frontman David Draiman’s outspoken support for the Israeli army – namely that one picture where he's signing missiles that'll kill people shortly thereafter.

Disturbed was scheduled to play Vorst Nationaal on Wednesday, October 15, but the plug has now been pulled following a police order issued by Mayor Charles Spapens (PS) according to De Standaard.

If those hit the people they were addressing, sure. But in reality, both those bombs, if they actually hit someone, probably killed poor schmucks just trying to make their way through life.

Duh lol. It was the keyboard warrior position that had planes and bombs to back it up. And a morale booster, reminder of why you're dropping them.

Writing on a bomb that's about to blow up innocent civilians during a genocide is absolutely weird though.
