PRESIDENT of the US BILL CLINTON BLASTS VIOLENT MEDIA
In his weekly radio address, President Clinton blamed video games and movies for contributing to the massacre by two teenagers at a Littleton, CO high school last week. "To the media and entertainment industries, I say just this: You know you have enormous power to educate and entertain our children," the president said, adding: "Yes, there should be a label on the outside of every video, but what counts is what's on the inside and what it will do to the insides of our young people." In the Republican response, Colorado Gov. Bill Owens declared: "We need to understand who and what feeds and profits from this dark subculture. And why is it that so many Americans patronize a mass media that all too often glorifies violence rather than condemns it?"

No disrespect to the victimsor their families is meant in the following section it more of a rebuttle to Bill Clinton's far out accusations. Now I'd just like to rebut something Bill Clinton has said. "To the President of the USA: You know you have enormous power to educate and entertain our children, yet instead of fostering an education for every child in your country you would rather buy a TANK or an aircraft carrier." I will pause and add.."Yes, the CLINTON presidency should have a warning that reads shoot first ask questions later, but it's what is going on inside that counts, inside the whithouse, and what that will do to the world outside the whitehouse.". And in response to Colorado Gov. Bill Owens, "We need to remember that it is factors like Bill Clinton's war media coverage and the RIGHT TO BARE ARMS that feeds the this dark subculture. And so many Americans patronize a mass media that all too often glorifies violence rather than condemns it, because it usually follows a speech by a white haired man pressing his left thumb down so hard into the rest of his hand that it turns white. Why would this be a call to patronize the violence, because it has got the presidential seal."

Passing the buck no longer works, the world knows that Clinton is a hypocrite and he should clean the whitehouse from the inside out before he tries to clean up the rest of the world.. Who knows if the whitehouse was clean, maybe the country would run smoother crime would come down.. I just thought I'd shead some life on the real HORROR.. Not just the horror that we see in moives that we can leave in the video case. The stuff happening in Kosovo will not stop when we turn off our TV's.. It can't be put in a video case, it's real.. And thats the difference, peoples deviance is more related to reality rather than fiction.. I in no way condone massacres and my heart goes out to the families of the victims of the recent Colorado massacre. But look for another scape goat, or just look in the mirror society is to blame. The kids were outcasts. Society should function in a way to stop anyone ever switching to deviance. But that will never happen because capitalism would breakdown.. Oh the HORROR that is reality.. LET US HAVE OUR MOVIES.

Just keep repeating "It's only a movie.. It's only a movie.."
