Anselmo, White Power og en nazi hilsen

Mildest talt uheldig opførsel til Dimebash 2016

Det har cirkuleret på internettet det seneste døgn - En uredigeret YouTube video blev uploadet, som viser Anselmo heile og råbe White Power i forbindelse med en live optræden ved Dimebash.

Personen ved navn Chris R, som har uploadet videoen, har tilføjet at:

At the end of the performance of WALK at Dimebash 2016 @ Lucky Strike Live in Hollywood CA Phil Anselmo decided to end the night with a sieg heil and scream white power to the crowd. I originally cut this from my first post of WALK but i feel people deserve to see this! A very sad moment and to me ruined the night! This is not what Pantera is about!!! Absolutely uncalled for and I can see why Vinny Paul wants nothing to do with this man. Phil Anselmo you are a Racist prick!!

Den har skabt så meget røre, at Anselmo selv har været ude og kommentere (I kommentarsporet på Housecore Records YouTube kanel) på videoen fra den 22. januar. Muligvis fordi han før er blevet beskyldt for racisme i forbindelse med live optræden i 1995 med Pantera, hvor han holdt en "White Pride" tale fra scenen.

Ok folks, I’ll own this one, but dammit, I was joking, and the “inside joke of the night” was because we were drinking f—ing white wine, hahaha…
Of all f—ing things.
Some of y’all need to thicken up your skin.
There’s plenty of f—ers to pick on with a more realistic agenda.
I f—ing love everyone, I f—ing loathe everyone, and that’s that.
No apologies from me.
