All you need to know about Hollywood:
-Applauded Rock's "joke" that implied Bush's lies has killed a thousand soldiers for no reason, then 2 minutes later applauded Rock's comment that our soldiers are fighting for freedom;
-Applauded a tribute to Christopher Reeve, who lived for a decade with a debilitating handicap; then later applaud a movie that glorifies the killing of a handicapped person.

Applauded a tribute to Christopher Reeve, who lived for a decade with a debilitating handicap; then later applaud a movie that glorifies the killing of a handicapped person.Glorifies? Are you kidding me? This reminds me of the claim that Trainspotting somehow "glorified" heroin addiction.
Clint's character agonizes over the decision. When he finally does the deed, he walks away from everything he has ever known and is never heard from again. There's no glory there. Whether you agree with his decision or not, it's clear that it's a crushing burden.
