Nonetheless, the fact is that almost all terrorist activity originates from some political conflict and is sustained by it as well.
Some Lynyrd Skynyrd songs are literally the backdrop of America. Songs like 'Simple Man' and 'Free Bird' and 'Alabama.' I wasn't prepared for how emotional the crowd gets during the songs.
