Wow, the wikipedia link says that this video led to the formation of the PMRC !?! Dee Snider is a genius ! How many millions of records less would have been sold without the 'parental advisory' sticker ?

The kid's dad looks like he could be John Linnell's asshole big brother.

It looks like the ending was either tacked on or poorly edited. There is no reason for the dad to suddenly be jettisoned from the house in such a fashion. It almost looks like he jettisoned himself. What it looks like even more is that the video editor ran out of time and in trying not to miss the deadline, took video footage and slapped it together in the wrong sequence.

The dad was the ROTC leader guy from Animal House. He is basically reinacting his rant about "what is that? A pledge pin? On your uniform?" scene. That is what makes this extra awesome.

Also, Dee Snider testified before the PMRC hearings and just blew them away. It was fantastic.
