‘Nugent has got to go,’ says South Dakota businessman and NRA member
“I want to make an unequivocal statement that the kind of Neo-Ku Klux Klan views expressed by Ted Nugent recently about the president of the United States and senior tribal members at Coeur d’Alene are unacceptable and intolerable. Period,” writes Frank Carroll, a columnist for a South Dakota newspaper and a National Rifle Association member.
In his column “Nugent has got to go,” published by the Rapid City Journal, Carroll suggests the aging rocker and NRA board member is not responsibly representing the NRA or other conservatives.
“Nothing Nugent said in any way supported the Second Amendment right to bear arms. He is using us to his own ends,” Carroll writes.
Carroll is calling out Nugent for his series of controversial comments about political opponents and critics, which stem from calling President Obama a “subhuman mongrel” in an interview with Guns.com in January.
Although Nugent technically apologized for the seemingly racially charged remarks, the damage was done. The statement along with his rhetoric triggered protests, petitions and at least four canceled shows — most notably by two Indian casinos citing his “racist and hate-filled remarks” as cause.
In response Nugent typically offered dehumanizing remarks towards those behind the cancellation, albeit taken out of context from the verbose speaker and publicized by left-leaning outlets. The remarks are, nonetheless, inflammatory.
A recent Nugent show at the Toledo Rib-Off was reportedly overshadowed by protestors supported by the gun control group Coalition Against Gun Violence. This was compounded by the fact that The Toledo Blade, which sponsored the event, preserved the scheduled appearance under duress but announced before the show that Nugent wouldn’t be invited back.
Does Ted Nugent adequately represent gun owners and NRA members? Tell us what you think.

Uncle Ted for President…
Nugent sucks! Unfortunately I’ve had to see him because he was opening for the bands i PAID TO SEE. He is so bad that he isn’t even a headlining act, he’s a show opener. he’s one of those bands you wish would hurry up and get off the stage so you can see the band you came to see.
