Oh wait, no one on FR EVER reads the entire article.

You do know that’s why headlines were invented, right?
Besides, why bother with all that reading when a guy can simply comment on someone’s comment. That way, nothing is ever really off topic.
+1 = It is so much more fun to match wits with the witless.
I was on another forum this morning droning how the police are glorified revenue enhancement agents. I even had a local law enforcement agent tell me I was right but slapped me down for painting with a broad stroke. Our local government is more worried about revenue than apprehending criminals.

If it wasn’t for the witless like me, the witted wouldn’t know to feel spayshul.
So, the smart people owe the dummies like me because we’re what make them.
Saw it first day.
5 Stars.
Thanks, Larry
Did anyone else happen to notice that the ‘Richard Jewell’ film was one of the sponsors of today’s Army/Navy game ?
That dude could do better. #nohomo
Thanks for the excellent review. The movie is in my Netflix queue and I’ll watch it soon after the DVD is released to the public. Looking forward to it.
In Austin, it’s playing in a low-key “art house” theater. I’m sure I saw ‘3:10 to Paris’ in the same one. It’s not a big movie, but it builds as Jewell slowly comes to the realization that the officials he is trying to help in the investigation are using every he gives them to build a case against him.
I think David Koresh was nuts. That’s just my opinion, however. But he proved that the power and resources of the Federal government were unequal to the task of getting their man without first killing every other man, woman, and child around him!
IOW, the entire affair did not show smart Koresh was as reveal how colossally inept the DOJ could be—with tragic consequences—when given the opportunity.
My comment isn't specifically directed at you. It's more frustration that people are that dangerously stupid to believe that just because someone is delusional, and has managed to attract followers, that somehow it's OK for our "law enforcement" to murder them.
Yes, exactly!
I agree; Koresh was smart, charismatic and nuts. Certain aspects of their beliefs strike me as unfair and unreasonable to his followers.
I think his followers were simply credulous, 95% were not nuts, simply under his spell.
Yet BEHOLD now, how at least 50% of the country is under a different spell at a different time.
It seems that even good people can fall victim to this.
Did they deserve to all burn to death?
Not in a million years.
Eastwood understands...
Took my son to see it this evening.
It was an exceptional film. Heartbreaking what this man went through.
Elites treat everyday American like dirt... I'm thankful Eastwood had the freedom to make a movie like this...
