Wentzy defends Travis

Fall Out Boy bassist Pete Wentz has defended Gym Class Heroes frontman Travis McCoy, who was apprehended during a Warped show in Missouri after an alleged racial slur sparked a violent confrontation.

"I don't want to see you in this scene," Wentz says of the fan who caused the fight. "You are who we think about when we hate. You are fucking pathetic and anyone that disagrees should put their white hood on too."

You say so few words, yet make a whole world of sense.

I think Fall out of my fucking asshole and whatever the other fucking band was can burn in napalm.

Like Fuck! Whyy On Earth Would Pete Do That! Hes Already A Total Fucking Dickhead. Why Would He Make An Even More Total Dick Of Himself! Travis Deserves To Be In There, Its His Fault, Not Pete's! Petes Stupid For Backing Him Up, Its Not Petes Fault! So Much For Travis Being All "hardcore, I Can Do What I Like And Get Away Wiv It" Travis Is In There For A Reason, And Pete Has Got Jack Shit To Do Wiv It.

Because White people are never discriminted

WTF is wrong with you?

Black people are just as racist as white people.

I know this for a fact. So fuck off saying "if you arn't black you may not get what it is like for someone to be racist to you".

Stop perfecting black people because they are just as bad.

and Pete owns decaydance; which Travis and his band are signed to.
i think Pete has every right to stick up for Travis (even if i hate GCH). You'd stick up for your friends too, eh?

one thing...stop calling him Wentzy, Dan, it drives me insane!

Argh!!

Pete Wentx was syicking up for Travis because he was racially abused, okay so Travis didn't have to go and hit him with his microphone, but he obviously wasn't much of a fan for making racist comments! I can't wait to see Gym Class Heroes in septemeber!! If Travvi's not in prison... :S

If you don't like Pete Wentz, Fall Out Boy Of Travis Mcoy don't read the fucking article!
Come on people, a bit of common sense? I'm sick of people coming into topics like this to provoke a response. Stop wasting your time.

Anyway, If he was provoked by a "racial slur" I'm behind Travis. Ass hole shouldn't have been there anyway should they.

Yay for playing the race card!
Let's just take Travis' word for the reason for the assault! After all, what's more powerful a reason to get out of trouble than saying the black man was racially abused by a white scumbag - no matter what the truth is, everyone can go along with that, right?
Who cares what the truth is, it's politically and publically expedient to play the race card.

Who the fuck does Wentz think he is?
