I want, make that need, to address what became of the Portland OR punk scene in the late '80's. Or more to the point the coward Skinhead movement that sprang out of it, as some of the albums I mentioned were extremely popular with those idiots.

I tangentially knew some friends of Ken Mieske a.k.a. Ken Death, the cowardly little tw@t that murdered Ethiopian Mulugeta Seraw with a baseball bat on the streets about 2 miles from where I grew up on Portland's eastside in November 1988. They knew I opposed their racist POV but because I was polite (and presumably because I happen to be a white man) they let me be. I hope they grew out of their bigoted attitudes, and of course unlike their POS friend Mieske they never killed anybody, but to the people I knew that sympathized with the white supremacy movement I present a song I know you all hate
