The Slants React to JKNews video about them

The Slants react to JKNews
https://youtu.be/Rqgm_NBCnjA

The Slants’s Founder Simon Tam, Guitarist Joe Jiang and lead singer Ken Shima react to JustKiddingNew’s video regarding them and their Supreme Court case.

GunSully does his damnedest to stir up controversy while moderating the reaction and yelling “SHOTS FIRED” and “BREAKING NEWS!” even if not when appropriate for comedic relief.

The Slants corrected some of the misstatements in the Article Tiff was reading and made some jokes about content, but were very polite in response to JKNews. Dispite any differences, all involved agreed that Joverdose’s playing of the recorder was ‘da mudda best.’
