  • I find it fascinating how so many of the same folks who have the least amount of faith and trust in our government are more than willing to let them be the only motherfuckers to have guns. Or am I wrong there?
  • The quote before yours said Arab and your reply was about a Muslim. Yeah. Because the story I was referring to was regarding a NON-Arab Muslim, which is why I clearly wrote Muslim and not Arab. My apologies for not making that extra clear. …
  • yea, brilliant solution. now, aside from lunatics killing people, we'd have sane people who lost control of their emotions killing folks. Every type of concealable handgun should be illegal. See what I mean Cousin Larry? I'm not quite…
  • Do you think everything in this thread is directed at you? Yes. Particularly when my name is in the reply heading.
  • I don't see South Koreans, in general, catching heat because one of their brethren went psychotic. Had the shooter been Middle Eastern (vs. Bosnian as in the Utah case) though? A very different story. Right. Because we don't hear about South…
  • Muslim and Arab are not interchangeable. The shooter in Utah was not an Arab. Tell me something I don't know.
  • Any remotely xenophobic arguments will do a huge disservice to all the people who have tragically died. Fair enough. But I'm not the one who brought that shit up.
  • its amazing how some of the pro-gun lobbyists think that students should be packing guns to go to uni and consequently could have dealt with the situation. some fucked up logic. Let me tell you something. If I was one of those poor kid…
  • oh yeah they announced it was some South Korean guy named Cho Seung-hui. imagine if the guy was arab. Imagine what? The guy that shot up and killed all those folks in Utah a few weeks back was Muslim and shit was barely said about it.
  • I am glad someone brought it up a couple pages back and I agree that trying to lock everything down right away dealing with that many people, young people, may have caused a very chaotic situation. Thank God that didn't happen.
  • Quote from fox news site: "Students need to know better how to protect themselves, possibly even how to fight back, and if students were allowed to carry weapons this wouldn't happen." ??? Carol Seriously though, wasn't it just last y…
  • Speaking of 9/11, it's remarkable how people (mostly on the Right) are almost chomping at the bit that this might be a terrorist attack (vs. a really fucked up act of psychosis). Haven't heard that but check this... peep this guy... So much…
  • The thing is though: they thought they had a suspect in custody. When the second shootings popped off, the realized, "uh oh." Key word: they "thought" they had a suspect in custody. Until school officials got word from law enforcement authoriti…
  • It just seems to me that the university probably made a reasonable call in treating the first shooting as an isolated domestic incident (and it sounds like they were operating on some bad information) rather than as a warning that something even …
  • Again, just for the record, those killings happened between 1 and 2 miles from campus and the convict was headed towards campus. I'm just sayin. No doubt. Either way I'm in favor of the lockdown. Better safe than sorry.
  • For the record, the 'Nothing happened' included the killing of a cop and a hospital security guard. "Nothing happened" on campus. Alright?
  • VT should have been on lock down until the shooter was found. Agreed. I recall that VT was locked down at the beginning of the school year after an escaped con was reportedly spotted on campus. Nothing happened and the guy was quickly caught. Pu…
  • John Sayles "Limbo" just came to mind. Same exact ending.
  • one last thing i saw on another board which seems to make sense. The last scene is tony's point of view.. last thing he sees is meadow walk in, and the sudden black is him getting popped. ?? Wasn't that our POV of Tony? If it was Tony's POV, w…
  • Brilliant ending! Ambiguity is a beautiful thing. Very rare that it's used in film - especially so heavily like that. People are gonna hate, but fuck it. I loved it.
  • BTW, people really need to let the Pine Barrens Russian thing go. I mean, jesus, it's been what? Three, four seasons now? That's not really a "hole" except for people unwilling to accept that not EVERY plotline has to be threaded up. That's k…
  • one big problem i had was with the dream sequence in melfi's office. it was different from all other sopranos dreams in how realistic it was, tony had all his bruises on his face in the dream, it was shot like any ol' therapy session scene, and mos…
  • AJ coming full circle on his road to becoming his father - in the shrinks office (ala Melfi), crying his eyes out over guilt and a lot of other bullshit. He is his father's son but he doesn't have stomach/balls to deal with it either. Not good.
  • Guy at work was tellin' me today that he knew Paulie wasn't gonna get whacked because there were no eggs in the scene. Then he rattles off that... Adrianna made scrambled eggs the day she got it.... Vito was chopping eggs for dinner the night …
  • I don't know why, but we've owned him for a few years now. Yup. I hear that jagoff Micheal Kay always talk about how this kind of thing almost "never happens" to Mo, but look, this is like the third blown outing in less than two weeks. Something…
  • Haven't seen this yet, but I have heard that on a couple of occasions, crowds started leaving in "droves" after the first flick ended. Was that on account of they ? Or perhaps they didn't realize there was another film after that??
  • Are you talking any one particular films of the 6 in the series? Or Shogun Assassin? While the purist in me would pick Baby Cart at the River Styx, I love the music and the dubbin' for S.A. Talking about the series as a whole. Although, I g…
  • By the way, for fans of the Itto Ogami/Lone Wolf saga, there's been some recent, interesting news regarding the story's original author returning for a sequel... "New Lone Wolf and Cub". Peep it... Dark Horse announced at the New York Comic Con …
  • By the way, gotta LOVE the old Frank Miller covers for the initial US Lone Wolf repros. He only did like the first 10 issues right? Who took over after him?
  • A movie that was just the old Mechanics stories with some cute unknown Mexican-American actresses would work for me. No clue on who could direct it and not make it either all CGI or too kitschy. Alex Cox? I was going to go the PC route and s…
