Dave Mustaine: President Obama Staged 'Dark Knight' and Sikh Temple Shootings

Either Dave Mustaine really enjoys riling up his left-wing enemies, or he honestly, truly believes President Obama orchestrated a series of recent shootings -- among them the July 20 "Dark Knight Rises" theater massacre in Aurora, Colorado -- to promote his gun-control agenda.

As Blabbermouth.net reports, the conservative Megadeth frontman went on a four-minute tirade last week during a show in Singapore, accusing Obama of somehow planning the Colorado tragedy and Aug. 5 shooting at a Sikh temple in Milwaukee.

"Back in my country, my president [makes puking sign with his finger in his mouth], he's trying to pass a gun ban, so he's staging all of these murders, like the 'Fast And Furious' thing down at the border; [the massacre in] Aurora, Colorado, all the people that were killed there; and now the beautiful people at the Sikh temple [near Milwaukee, Wisconsin]," Mustaine said.

Mustaine, who's on record as believing Obama wasn't born in the United States, then recounted a conversation he had with the show's promoter.

"I was saying, 'I don't know where I'm gonna live if America keeps going the way it's going because it looks like it's turning into Nazi America," he said. "And he said, 'Move down here to Singapore.'"

Should Mustaine relocate, he might want to first read the Singapore entry at Human Rights Watch. As per the watchdog group, the Asian nation is not exactly a bastion of personal freedom.

"Singapore's constitution guarantees rights to freedom of expression, peaceful assembly, and association," the World Report 2012 reads. "However, it also permits broadly interpreted restrictions not only for security, public order, and morality, but also for parliamentary privilege and racial and religious harmony. These restrictions facilitate censorship of broadcast and electronic media, films, video, music, sound recordings, and computer games."
