Conservative Web Site Says DIMEBAG 'Contributed To Culture Of Death' That 
Spawned His Killer
William Grim, Contributing Editor of the popular conservative Web Site The 
Iconoclast, has penned the following article with regards to the recent 
murder of DAMAGEPLAN/ex-PANTERA guitarist "Dimebag" Darrell Abbott:
You've undoubtedly heard by now that a demented fan last week killed heavy 
metal guitarist Dimebag Abbott at the Alrosa Villa in Columbus, Ohio. While 
I am extremely happy to hear that the assassin was shot to death by a brave 
Columbus policeman and I in no way want to engage in a blaming the victim 
scenario, I cannot deny that there much in Mr. Abbott's demise of one being 
hoisted on one's petard. The squalor, inhumanity, filth (both in the 
metaphorical and hygienic senses), depravity, ugliness and ignorance of 
everything that heavy metal represents (Like rap, I cannot use the noble 
term music in a description of heavy metal) creates a mindset among its 
devotees in which Mr. Abbott's assassination was an event that was all but 
waiting to happen. 
It was highly amusing, and also terribly sad, to watch on television fans 
conducting a "vigil" for the slain Mr. Abbott outside of the Alrosa Villa. 
It was an assemblage of ignorant, semi-human barbarians who were filthy in 
attire and manner, intellectually incoherent and above all else, hideously 
ugly to the point of physical deformity. Here is a definite case in which 
the outer appearance of these "fans" accurately represented the hideousness 
of their souls. That the physical deformity of their ugliness was self-
inflicted makes the spiritual tragedy of their misspent lives all the more 
tragic. 
But one can see why the heavy metal fans so closely identified with Mr. 
Abbott. He was an ignorant, barbaric, untalented possessor of a guitar and 
large amplifier system. Freakish in appearance, more simian than human, he 
was the performer of a type of "entertainment" that can be likened only to a 
gorilla on PCP. Lacking subtlety, wit, style, emotional range and anything 
approaching even the smallest iota of intellectual or musical interest, Mr. 
Abbott was part of a generation that has confused sputum with art and 
involuntary reflex actions with emotion. 
De gustibus non disputandem est. Matters of taste are not subject to 
argument. That has been a general principle of aesthetics for some time, and 
when we are talking about the visceral preference for Mozart or Haydn or 
Beethoven among civilized human beings we are on pretty safe ground. I do 
not understand exactly why I prefer Haydn to my good friend who prefers 
Beethoven. But we both agree (as do all civilized human beings) that both 
Messrs. Haydn and Beethoven are numerous steps further along the 
evolutionary trail than Dimebag Abbott. 
Here is one area in which conservatives have failed and failed miserably. 
Whether it is out of a lack of interest or despair, conservatives for too 
long have ceded the entire field of aesthetics to the trust fund red babies 
of the blue states. And look at what this has brought us. So-called heavy 
metal music, so-called rap music, operas and stage plays in which modern 
"stagings" reduce Verdi and Shakespeare to the condition of a 
schizophrenic's finger paintings. Leftist domination in the visual arts has 
made a mockery of the aesthetic greatness of modernism and replaced it with 
the turd encased in Lucite. And the grammatically-challenged racist rantings 
of Amiri Baraka now pass for poetry. 
However, we conservatives should not confuse family values with aesthetics. 
In the realm of art, our evangelical brethren have many crimes to answer 
for. When a church replaces Bach with Bacharach it has engaged in the 
aesthetic rape of the liturgy. Just because one has good intentions and 
approaches the numinous with "sincerity" and "authenticity" (the latter term 
ironically being a buzzword among the Marxist aestheticians of the Frankfurt 
School), that does not absolve one from aesthetic responsibility. 
As far as I am concerned, those who advocate a dumbed-down liturgy and 
schlocky pop music substitutes for Bach, Handel and the masses of the 
Renaissance, are as offensive as the Presiding Bishop of the Episcopal 
Church and his perverse sexual politics. 
Part of the hard work of civilization is teaching young to be able to 
distinguish between the good and the bad in all aspects of life. If we teach 
our young children to obey the 10 Commandments and to obey the laws of the 
land, but don't teach them to realize that Johann Sebastian Bach is superior 
to Dimebag Abbott, we have failed as parents and mentors. If a person has 
gone through 12 or 13 years of education and has not developed an 
appreciation for the greatest artistic achievements of mankind, that 
education has been an utter failure. 
While laissez-faire is the correct approach to economics it has no place in 
the realm of aesthetics or morality. A confidant civilization imposes its 
morality and aesthetics on it young people. Yes, you heard it right. We 
impose. The Rousseauian noble savage is a myth. Left unchecked and untutored 
the savage will never attain nobility. 
There are those who will accuse me of elitism. And I admit it. I am a 
conservative elitist. I want the very best. The very best form of 
government, the very best of civilizations, the very best educational 
system, the very best literature and art, the very best music, the very best 
way of life. If I need open heart surgery I want to go to an elite heart 
surgeon. 
Mediocrity is the goal of socialism. Americans should aspire to greatness. 
In the past forty years, conservatives have won great victories in the 
political, economic and moral realms, but we stand to throw all our gains 
away if we do not reclaim ascendancy in the aesthetic realm as well. 
And while the murder of even a semi-human barbarian like Mr. Abbott is 
tragic and to be lamented, it would be wrong to ignore Mr. Abbott's 
complicity in contributing to the soul-deadening culture of death, ugliness, 
depravity and inhumanity that spawned his killer. 
Hugo von Hofmannsthal once remarked that "all powerful imaginations are 
conservative." It is time for conservatives to utilize their imaginations 
and reclaim the field of aesthetics from the left-that is, while there is 
still something left in the aesthetic realm worth reclaiming.

anche peggio delle solite cazzate, perche' questo deficente cerca pure
di argomentarle, dimostrando cosi' di avere una mente a dir poco bacata!
ma in che modo puo' una persona arrivare a ragionare in quel modo?

cioe' hai presente l'americano medio???? un pelo piu' in basso
dell'italiano medio...gap che sara' colmato a breve...
se non ti capiciti abbastanza dell'ignoranza di simili individui dai
un'occhiata alla padania e/o a libero e poi ne riparliamo
cmq io penso che sussitano due fattori:
uno antropologico cioe' 'sti individui sono brutti
(sentimantalmente) come la fame cosa che si ripecchia naturalmente anche
esteticamente;
di qui si arriva al punto due cioe0' quello psicologico: non scopano bene,
non sanno scopare, lo hanno piccolo eo hanno avuto compolessi di
inferiorita' spaventosi. provati a dirmi uno come ferrara che non vede il
suo uccello (da tanto che e' grasso da almeno una quindicina di anni come
fa a stare bene mentalmente....

Non ho il cuore per arrivare in fondo.
Penso sia la cosa piu' ottusa, ignorante ed offensiva nei confronti sia dei
vivi che della memoria dello scomparso che io abbia mai letto.
No, stavolta non ci riesco a farmi una risata, nemmeno amara.
Una parte di me si augura che qualche metallaro barbaro piu' scimmia che
uomo americano legga quella roba e spari anche a lui. Un'altra parte che non
succeda perche' altrimenti darebbe ragione a lui.
Non sapevo che vi fosse stata una veglia davanti al locale dove Dimebag e'
stato ammazzato. Premetto che non ascolto i Pantera, e nemmeno i Damageplan.
Ma e' una questione di rispetto, cazzo. Definire un branco di stupidi
antropomorfi chi si riunisce per vegliare la notte in cui si ricorda la
morte di qualcuno che per te, che eri un fan dei Pantera o dei Damageplan,
ha rappresentato in qualche modo qualcuno o qualcosa, e' a dir
poco -osceno-.

Capisco cosa intendi, ma io lo prendo come un pezzo comico grottesco....non 
riesco a pensare che esista davvero qualcuno la pensa in questo modo, e se 
esiste si prende in giro da solo, per come la vedo io...

bravo la stessa cosa che ho pensato io e che penso quando vedo messaggi di 
gente che viene qui sono per rompere i coglioni.
certa roba non merita il mio tempo 

 riesco a pensare che esista davvero qualcuno la pensa in questo modo
