Their name is very apt as they source a lot of their music from The National Film Board of Canada, their documentaries in particular.

Dead Kennedys, it's disrespectful and just plain poor taste. I wonder what they'd think about the Dead Penaltys or the Dead Baifras.

I say hats off to the Kennedys for not squashing it. Boy, would I luuuvvvv to have been a fly-on-the-wall in Hyannis during that family discussion. Y'know there was one...

Oh yeah, and my guess is that Biafra isn't Jello the J-Man's real name.
