Hatebreed performed this weekend in Oklahoma City. A video clip of the concert shows people in the crowd asking singer Jamey Jasta to throw someone out of the show that they accuse of being a Nazi. 

Jasta eventually encourages the alleged offender to leave, but not before telling the crowd that they should be policing themselves. 

“Listen, nazis aren’t welcome at Hatebreed shows,” Jasta said. “This is a f*cking obvious thing. But you guys gotta police your own f*cking shows, okay? In our day, I didn’t go to the singer of the f*cking band. We handled our sh*t [in] the street. Nobody sees nothing. No f*cking snitching, no cops. You got a problem? You handle it in the street like men.”

Jasta went on to say there’s no place for hate at a Hatebreed show. 

“Don’t let the door hit you on the way out,” he said “There’s no place for racism, anti-semitism, sexism, transphobia – none of that sh*t. Life is hard enough. Everybody needs music. But I ain’t a f*cking cop, but police your own sh*t next time alright? I love every one of you, but police your scene. It ain’t up to the bands.”

Benjamin Sharp sent the below video to Metal Injection and provided a little more insight as to what happened. “I’m honestly unsure [how this started]! My buddy was filming and we were both on the rail, and the individual shouting in the beginning of the clip captured our attention so he flipped his phone around. I did see the man who the crowd essentially ejected themselves though, and he seemed rather intoxicated and belligerent to begin with.”
