Anti Gun messages on NBC.

Actually, I haven't seen that anti-gun one in awhile. On the contrary, I was going to suggest writing them and thanking them for the PSA I say yesterday, which simply focused on VIOLENCE in our society. It was very fair. I don't know the celebrity's name, but she just said something like "our kids have a lot to deal with these days, like weapons and violence." I was hoping this was their substitute for the Third Rock characters' idiocy, but I suppose not. Let them know how you feel.

Yeah, I saw that too.
I actually got asked the same thing:
"Tell me one good thing..."
My answer:
"Guns save lives..."

The list of TV shows I won't watch is getting longer and longer. I was working on the computer the other night when Saturday Night Live came on in the other room. I raced in and changed the channel as they were making fun of "our" president and the NRA. Haven't watched SNL for over a year now because of this type of stuff (and because it's not very funny anymore).
Actually, all this anti crap on TV does have some positive ramifications. My wife USED to be a big Rosie fan until the Tom Selleck thing happened. Old Quigley got her vote! And since then she's much more outspoken when it comes to being pro-gun!
Hey liberals...it's NOT the GUNS!

Watched a show last night, The Practice. Several messages presented there.
The most prominent one, you can't seek Justice on a personal level. There was a murder case, where the accused openly admitted killing her attacker, after he raped her. She never went to the police, etc... She was convicted of the charges, even though there were several women on the Jury. Apparently the Prosecutors arguement that "vigilantism" cannot be tolerated, at any cost. What wasn't mentioned is how many rapes this "person" had committed in the past. I was, to say the least, dissapointed by the Jury. Anybody ever hear about The Burning Bed? Or Lorenna Bobbitt?
Second, on the same show, there was a sicko, who was fondling women in this office building, presumable the law firm in the show. The conclusion was that the sicko never saw a day in court, nor was punished for his crimes.
Where, oh where is Justice in the Halls? Yes, there is a difference between rape, and sexual assault, isn't there? Wouldn't grabbing a women's breasts, etc, be assault?
The message to me, don't take the law into your own hands, you'll be punished more than the original actor in the crime. If you allow the courts to work, you might not get Justice at all.

"Corrupt the young, get them away from religion. Get them interested in sex. Make them superficial, and destroy their rugged- ness.
Get control of all means of publicity, and thereby get the peoples' mind off their government by focusing their attention on athletics, sexy books and plays, and other trivialities.
Divide the people into hostile groups by constantly harping on controversial matters of no importance."

"The Practice" also had a very special episode where one of the lawyers (the mean fat one) bought a gun, as did the mean skinny one, so they could protect themselves from someone passing threats.
Of course, the idiots' idea of "protection" also included having a "male friend" around--and the male friend they chose was a murderer they'd gotten off after he was caught with a human head in a briefcase. So, predictably, evolution worked its magic and their "friend" nearly killed them both, except that the skinny mean one shot him dead. It was all presented as commentary on how horrible it was that otherwise decent liberal people could be driven to such depths as self-defense in today's world.
Blech.
