[UPDATE] July 4 - Sentinel - KT Shocker

Quote:
KT Shocker: 'I'm a Reconstructionist'
By ARLING WILSON
In a surprise weekend press conference, Roll for Damage bassist Keenan Thoreau has publicly admitted that he is a Reconstructionist. "I come forward today to make a stand for my beliefs," he said. He claimed the move was prompted by the recent dismissal of former Perplex City Sentinel advertising manager Ryan Klein, who was fired shortly after the Sentinel learned he is a Reconstructionist.

"This is a chance to correct a tremendous injustice," he said. "Ryan is a victim of unfounded prejudice against those of the Reconstructionist faith. I want all of you in this fine city to examine your conscience, and tell the Sentinel exactly what you think about their actions."

Klein appeared at the conference, and gave a short speech thanking KT for his support. "All I want is to live as I was before," he said.

The rest of the band appeared at the conference as well. "We have known all along about KT's beliefs," said singer Alejo Jackson. "We've quite honestly never felt it is the public's business, and so we agreed to keep the secret." Despite the brave front, the members of the band did look subdued, leading to speculation about how united the band members were in making the announcement at all.

Helix Hesh of Hesh Records dismissed suggestions that the news could hurt the band's sales and popularity. He remarked that the move was a surprise to him, but that it does not change his plans for producing and marketing the band's next album, Take Initiative, due out September 1. "The band is popular because of their sound. I think the city is really above this antiquated, this petty religious infighting, and the album will be just fine," he said.

Cheri Lindemann, the president of the band's fan club, could not be reached for comment.

Before what?

I can't quite remember, but aren't the Reconstructionists only *really* disliked since the theft of the cube? So before the theft of the cube he would have been happy to say publically that he's One.Of.Them. And roll for damage have been around for longer than the cube has been missing I think...

I would think he is refering to before he lost his job at the Sentinel.

Indeed. Overall, I guess what he also means is 'live without fear of harassment because I'm a Reconstructionist.' Although given that most high - profile supporters appear to have been hiding the fact that they esposued Reconstructionism, it's a bit of an odd sentiment. Frankly, though, I guess Klein is scenting that the whole thing is a bit of a witch - hunt, which is something I've long agreed with.
