The frontman of Armenian-American metal band System of a Down Serj Tankian posted on his Facebook page:
“Incredible. Serge Sarkissian literally threatens the citizens of Armenia with violence with his “March 1 2008” explicit threat if they don’t stop their peaceful protest and resistance. He really does seem totally out of touch. I implore the Parliament of Armenia to do the right thing and immediately take away his powers to avoid bloodshed so the people won’t have to do it themselves. I think this video shows exactly how little he cares for his people.
He is done..toast.”
