Full Daily Mail title:
Sex Pistol Johnny Rotten attacks hate mobs celebrating Baroness Thatcher’s death as “loathsome” and calls for respect
Certainly is a change of tone from three years ago when he called for punk rockers to spit on Sarah Palin and Tea Party “chimpanzees” . . .

He attacks people when they are alive and lets them rest in peace in death, some class by Rotten.

“Certainly is a change of tone from three years ago when he called for punk rockers to spit on Sarah Palin and Tea Party “chimpanzees” . .”

Are there ‘punk rockers’ anymore? I thought they went extinct after Billy Idol went ‘mainstream’. They evolved into hyper-effeminate, lanky kids with jet black hair over their faces and Hot Topic discount cards in their wallets. The only ‘spitting’ today’s punk kids do is... well, we won’t say.

Reminds me a bit of Jerry Falwell’s death, when the classiest obit in the MSM came from Larry Flynt.

When Johnny Rotten thinks you’ve got no class you know it has to be true.

Well hell, they are still alive. He never said that he respected Thatcher, only that it was disrespectful to act so after she died. So I guess by his logic a liberal can be as vile and hateful as they want to a Conservative as long as the Conservative is still alive.

Punk is anti-establishment. She was the establishment to him, then. It’s the establishment now, that’s dancing on her grave.

Those who attack someone after they’re dead show what courage they lack

It’s a weird world where John Lydon has become a symbol of restraint. He was really mellow when the Pistol’s old producer (whom Lydon had sued multiple times) died too.
