They don't know anything.
I tell these people about how pleasant and down to earth Meat was at the M&G but they are still focusing on that one moment.
We all lose our temper from time to time but how many of us are unlucky enough to have it captured on camera, aired on national prime time television and reported in newspapers in other countries? The media forget that celebrities are only human.
I'm a fan of Meat, not only for his music but because of the kind of person he is. If he needs the support of his fans right now then I'll do whatever I can to give him that support.

I totally agree. I've lost count of the number of times that I have 'defended' Meat and fought his corner, when people have made stupid, shallow, uneducated comments about someone that they don't even know! Grrrr, it makes me SO mad! If you don't know what you're talking about, then shut the hell up!
