The Briar Patch

The world keeps giving me shit to blog about when I wanna keep working on fiction! Yes I realize that is a first world problem. And I am glad to have it rather than nothing to write about but I wish it wasn't always so stupid. See there was yet again a school shooting. It is a horrible hallmark but I remember the big one, Columbine. I was in grade 12 at the time. It shocked the world, we had an assembly the next day basically to say if you ever feel like this get help! We as a society hoped that it was a one off, we were proved very, very wrong. Mike Moore made a half assed movie about it. When it came out I was mind blown by it. When I realized many things can be given a slant (Thank you journalism school & making of a murderer) I took it with a grain of salt. But he did raise a very good point, WTF?! why were these shootings happening??? I am not gonna blog that, that would take a lot longer than I have but I am starting to get perturbed with this new anti gun BS going on. ...

Same as every time some scum bag, psycho shoots up something, people are screaming for gun control. I know I am week behind on posting this but holidays with the fam gets priority and personally I find it in poor taste to try and politicize a tragedy. Nothing makes my blood boil more than the day after something like the Vegas Massacre and people are trying to use it to make a point. Have a bit O class. Help out and make sure everything is as good as it can be, then get down to the fight.... I wanna start with some basic stuff. I read there are 3 guns for every American floating around in America right now. So roughly 330 Million times 3 is 990 Million guns. That in it self is insane. Why would any nation need that many guns? To be fair I don't know if that includes services guns (Military, police) or just personal guns but wow either way, wow. The sheer number of guns available to people is mind blogging. With that many out there it is pretty easy logic some are going to fall in...

So I am a few weeks behind on this, I mean most of the hype has blown over but I want to put my 2 cents in too! I mean this whole thing started over a movie. And a loudmouth running at the mouth. But really this is how he made his name so what do we expect? First off, I haven't even seen American Sniper. I really want to, it looks good. Mr. Eastwood, you're the man. Always have been always will be. I admit I was late jumping on the bandwagon. Until Unforgiven I thought meh, some old cowboy. But since you started directing wow. Based on those facts and Brad Cooper being in it, I would have to say it is gonna be awesome! I have heard it called a recruitment film. Maybe it is, or maybe Mr. Eastwood is just a proud American and there really isn't anything wrong with that. So how can 1 movie get a shit storm flying on all forms of media. Stupid people.... That's the cause of this shit storm and most shit storms. First off it is BASED on a book. And the main character is th...
