Anyone living in the US,
planning to live in the US,
or have heard of the US,
see this film.

You will see why it got
a 30 min. standing ovation
at the Cannes Film Festival.

Haven't been to a theater in some time. Last time was to see "Spiderman". Before that, to see "Look Whos Talking Too".

I need to go out more.

*Quasi-rhetorical question*
What is it with America and guns.
Two weeks ago australia had our first major shooting for a number of YEARS.
Mean while, within a month the US has had the washington sniper, that kid a few days ago in the school and i heard just this morning about a med student blowing away 2 professors.
*shakes head sadly*

I don't know, but...

I as an US American was

Able to eat my popcorn during the grossest scenes and

Was turned on by the chicks with guns.

Go figure.

Shootings are still shootings. I think they need to give the death penalty for any shooting. Even if you didn't kill someone, and you should get life in prison for any crime committed with any weapon. Stricter laws are all we need.

Guns are widely available in the US.
Its just easier to shoot someone instead of having a fist fight.
People who use guns to hurt people are just wimps who are affraid of getting a bloody nose.

They're not nuts.
Nutbags would kidnap, torture, kill and eat their victims.
Charley Manson is a nutbag.
Jeffery Dahlmer was a nutbag.
The Washington snipers are wimps who don't even have the balls to confront their victims. Weak simple minded loosers who hopefully will be tried in Federal Court and be sentenced to death. Its a waste of tax dollars to keep [-peep-] like that alive.
I don't understand why the cops didn't execute the wimps when they caught them. Why bother finding out why they did it. No one will ever figure out why they did it anyway.

Ive got a good idea.
Sterilisation.

If you kill someone with a weapon you are sterilised, in addition to other punishment.
If you have kids and/or a spouse, they are sterilised too unless they can prove they actively tried to stop him/her from doing it.

Ooooh...this reminds me of my mother-in-law who's been saying for years that birth control needs to be part of the public water supply. If you want a child, you have to apply to receive the antidote.

I think that sterilizing them is too good...how 'bout castration? I hear it reduces levels of testosterone thereby reducing aggression...or is that just in cats...

I can put my particular formula for birth control into the water supply.....my man-muck would simply kill everyone and therefore effectively control the population.....

I can also sterilise cats or any other animals by biting their nuts off, which is a lovely way to spend a weekend.

They better start using birth control in India... in Western countries it is hardly a problem.
