Crybabies of Rock: Trapt In Your Headstrong Ways

~Disclaimer: My sampling of outside media in this video constitutes as Fair Use under section 107 of the US Copyright Law, for the purpose of criticism and commentary, which thus invalidates my usage as copyright infringement.~

Chris Taylor Brown of Trapt is basically the right wing equivalent of Buddy Nielsen, and the spats he recently got into with people like Tilian Pearson of Dance Gavin Dance and Riley Gale of Power Trip among others pretty much prove that. This video isn’t so much discussing Chris’s political opinions as it is commenting on the terrible PR exhibited.
