... must be either an error or meant ironically. When Strummer sings of a "Volatile Molotov" thrown at Puerto Rican immigrants in Alphabet City as a message to encourage them to leave, he is referring to the arson that claimed buildings occupied by immigrant communities – notably Puerto Rican – before the neighborhood was subject to gentrification. Hence, the ironic reference to "dead- head," the removal of ...

When was the last time you called a Canadian (or Brazilian or Costa Rican etc) "American"? It was the last time I wanted to annoy a Canadian.
