"I’ve never voted in my life. I’ve never registered to vote, and I’m not going to. You know what, I pay my taxes. I work my ass off and I give my money to things that I don’t agree with. [...] OK, then they would say, “You can change that by voting.” No, because I’m just one vote. What if I don’t agree with all they do? I’m legally bound to pay taxes, I have to do that, so I do. There’s my contribution to politics. Other than that, leave me and my family alone, we’re not hurting anybody. Just that simple. I don’t need to be in it. I have my views on things I’ve seen, and if ever I was that compelled by any candidate, maybe I would register to vote and vote. [...] I just want to go and play music and come home to my kids and my wife. I don’t want to sit here and be in the picket line because they’re being untreated fairly, then you got the other guys on the other side saying, ‘No they’re not.’ You’ve always got the conservative people there, you always have the left-wing people there, and people in the middle, just trying to walk down the street and they can’t, because there’s people blocking the way."
