After watching the very unbalanced media coverage of both events, and the public reaction, this thought came to mind.

Fox News 4eva! :)

Tbh I don't like any of the major news outlets lol

*Rush Limbaugh 4eva ;)

That's why I read the newspaper! ;)
(Probably the only 20 year that does still.)

It seems like people rush to judgement without all the facts these days

I know I saw a quote posted on this site, I don't remember who created it and I don't want to take credit for someone else's work, but I will repeat it (hope the owner doesn't mind).
What's the difference between JFK being assassinated and Obama being assassinated? If someone shot Obama it would be considered a hate crime.

The thought probably wasn't original to that user, but here's the meme I think you might mean:

2nd hand grapejuice!

It is weird how we as US citizens are treating this as a daily thing that happens now... :(

It's mostly sad, and pathetic. Everyone likes to point fingers instead of say "Yeah racism is an issue. But let's see what good can come out of this. Let's see if we can use this as an opportunity to come out as one race and show our love and support to those affected."

To be honest, the only one to blame in this situation are the guns.

People have been killing each other since the beginning of time.Before guns we killed with rocks, clubs, knives, words, bare hans, etc.People kill people not guns.I live by this motto,Good people with guns kill bad people with guns.Have a safe day.

Please don't quote Wayne Lapierre, however, I understand Humans are not perfect.

I don't know why, but I laughed real good at this comment. Even though I have no idea what it's from...

A classic war movie, a Apocalypse Now. :)

Ah, should put that on my bucket list of movie I need to watch.

Absolutely, lot of big stars. The movie is a characature of the war in Vietnam and has become something of a cult classic.

Cool, I recently watched Full Metal Jacket and woah it was pretty serious, is this one more of tone-downed?

Full Metal Jacket was very dark. Apocalypse Now is better. And more thought provoking.

Wonder if I can find this on Netflix.

I just checked. It's on Amazon video.. Free if you have Amazon Prime. They have both versions, the original as well as the longer extended version wihich has a lot of scenes that would up on the edit room floor.

I don't have Amazon Prime though... :/

I love it. I started at first just for the Free shipping on Amazon books. But there's all kinds of products now. I do all my Christmas/birthday/spur-of-the-moment shopping on Amazon. Saves time and gas going to the store. And you also get a lot of programs that Amazon outbid Netflix on.

Nobody bats an eye? Are you stoned?
