Bill Hicks "Free Bird: The Mantra of the Moron"

There are very few comedians with as much pent-up anger as Bill Hicks.  One night he heard someone yell out "Freebird" one too many times - and the fury was unleashed.  Admittedly, the Hitler references may have been a bit much, however, I think once he was wound up there was no stopping him - and at the end of the day, it's not a rant against the jews - it's a rant against all of humanity. This clip is presented here because it's entertaining to watch a comedian eviscerate a heckler, but if you are not familiar with Hick's work I would encourage you to explore a bit further.  His routines are thoughtful, insightful and hilarious.  He was a major inspiration to many comics who went on to greater fame, and a real beacon of truth in a hypocritical world. Sadly, Bill Hicks died from pancreatic cancer in 1994 at the young age of 32. Watch the video after the jump.






Bonus Clip:  Bill is killed for reminding us that "it's only a ride..."
