True Story:
I did sound for a party at the very theater where that scene was shot (it hadn't been used for anything in years and was spooky and dilapidated like the Addams family mansion). Ms. Del Rio showed up and did a surprise reprise of that song.

yes, better a dumbunist than a communist.

The part that really worries me, is how so many adults fight the wars of their childhoods. I fear for what pointless crusades today's teens will put us through in 30 years.


The only threat china poses to us right now is due to the fact that we keep selling all of our debt to them. There is no ideological or military threat, merely the fact that at some point, china will pretty much own the US by virtue of having purchased it through our free market system.

It amazes me how stupid enforcement officials can be at times. Specifically when very large numbers of them focus on a very small number of individuals who won't submit to their whims. There was a video of a dozen TSA people following around a guy who was video taping at an airport. They always talk about "terrorism", all the while displaying massive tunnel vision by focusing on a harmless, but vaguely suspicious individual. So all eyes are on some goober with a camera, which leaves nobody watching the big picture.

terrorists are not going to make themselves conspicuous.

every time I wear a leather motorcycle jacket through the airport, I get "randomly" selected for extra screening. If I leave that jacket at home, I'm never selected for extra attention.

There are too many selfish, self-centered, disrespectful people in this world who don't give a shit about their elders, authorities, or just anyone else in general.





and yet here we have an example of an authority figure that doesn't respect things like Human Rights or give a shit about the very citizens he is supposed to protect. A Grown adult authority figure BEAT UP A TEENAGE GIRL. For me, that's really all there is to it. This is someone whose job title is "To Serve and Protect", and he lacks the most basic bits of self discipline, and exploded in a violent rage because, get this, a teenage girl said some words and acted a little bratty.
Sorry, but I will never, ever be able to pull the "blame the victim" bullshit of justifying or glossing over an egregious over-reaction with "well, if you'd have just shut up and taken it, then it wouldn't have happened to you, you kinda deserve that brutally unjust response".



A cop just beat up an unarmed teenage girl, who posed ZERO threat to anyone, while in police custody in a jail cell. There is no viable excuse or justification for that under any circumstance.

I'm not sure I'd really have respect for someone who is attempting to lock me in an inescapable room.
