this is dumb.

maybe if they had done something like this with football players or celebrities who have been found guilty of gun violence - in real life.

movies and television are not real life. i hope you don't teach your children that they're one in the same..misleading them into thinking there is no difference could have devastating effects.

i do like that they used the clip of jamie foxx 'kill alll the white people' - wonder why they felt the need to put that in there? :huh:

wonder why he said it ?

You don't think kids grow up watching a steady diet of this ####### and it's not part of the reason some of these crazy's act out. You can see the hypocrisy in these Hollywood types glorying all that violence and making it cool, then demanding we do something ?

.if you had seen the clip alongside everything else he said, you'd know why he said it. there's a reason only a snippet was shown in this video..

i grew up on a steady diet of violent media, both from news (showing real life violence) and movies (entertainment). my son is growing up the same - zombie movies are his current favorite. my cousin just came back from his second tour from afghanistan, he's been a part of real life violence and he watches violent movies. yet he still knows the difference between real and fake.

fact is, every generation whines about violent movies to the upcoming generation. each passing generation thinks that the violence in movies when they were growing up was okay but the current ####### coming out of hollywood is atrocious and something to be feared. blaming media for violent behavior is a cop out.

you're giving celebrities way too much credit.

It's amazing what people will blame for horrible acts. Hollywood, celebrities, movies, not enough spankings as a child, no "God" in schools, medications, etc. As long as nobody tries to blame the guns.

So is blaming the weapon that a person used.

And the reverse is also true. All these people think, ban assault weapons problem solved.. Not even close.

I've very, very rarely seen anyone actually advocating the ban of all guns.

Yes but banning the gun that causes the least deaths is stupid

I think this says it all.

Blatant hypocrisy.

"I want to take this opportunity to mention how thankful I am for an Obama re-election. The choice was clear. We cannot live in a country that treats homosexuals and women as second class citizens. Homosexuals deserve all of the rights and benefits of marriage that heterosexuals receive. Women deserve to be treated with respect and their salaries should not depend on their gender, but their quality of work. I am also thankful that the great, progressive state of California once again voted for the correct President. America is moving forward, and the direction is a positive one."

Also, these American movies are seen all over the world. So why would they have a negative impact HERE and nowhere else?

Cause they are in English DUH ?

Ok then.

Seriously I don't know what is making all these wing nuts freak out and kill people. I don't know why more than 500 people have been murdred in Chicago alone this year. I think it's a combination of a lot of things. Meltdown of the nuclear family, no morals any more, no one being held accountable, having babies for sport and then them raising themselves, no discipline for kids, us becoming so desensitized to violence.

What I do know is that an assault weapons ban will have no effect and is absurd. Did not work last time, will not work this time. That is like saying the car is responsible when a drunk driver plows into a family van and kills 6.

So called assault weapons are no more dangerous than any other kind and kill way less people every year than all other guns.
