A Clockwork ...The concern with the film is legit. <br /><br />A Clockwork Orange did trigger threats or violence, which caused it to be pulled in Brit...'The Warriors' caused violence too....<br /><br />Machete casts whites as evil, and latinos in the US as heroic, capped off by a revenge bloodbath....since illegals here are already promising violence if they dont get their way, the film can only add, if only a small amount, of log to the fire.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6647145640661836989.post-80144624918895558892010-05-31T07:34:55.782-07:002010-05-31T07:34:55.782-07:00You referenced the "paper please" bill.....You referenced the "paper please" bill....I call it the ID check.<br /><br />Its a mild law to deal with a crime, race is never mentioned in the law....cops have to already be engaged with someone in a lawful stop/detention before they can then use reasonable suspicion to inquire into immigration status....a Arizona drivers permit satisfies the requirement.About 45-50% of the cops doing this job will be Latino...<br /><br />.some say that some cops will abuse the law, but some cops abuse some laws all the time anyway, so what else is new? sb1070 addresses that too<br /><br />Foreigners here have had to have their "papers" on them since about 1940....42 states require that you have your ID on you....Federal immigration law is much tougher than Arizona's, re: reasonable suspicion, Muehler v.

What we read in our youth can have a profound lifelong effect. <br /><br />Admittedly, I'll probably like Machete. And the stepkids <em>adored</em> Spy Kids. For years, my stepson used some variation of "floop" as an online password, then would wonder why his sister always managed to crack it. ;DS.M.

He literally doesn't get stuff. But maybe that's what high levels of irrational paranoia does to your critical thinking skills. Or lack of critical thinking skills lead to paranoia. Very chicken and egg.<br /><br /><br /><br />As kids films go, I find the spy kids ones bearable. Which is a good thing, else I would have cracked seeing them twenty times each. And husband is like a kid waiting for xmas to see the Machete film -- he loves Rodriguez's films (including Spy Kids).TKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00483597727866182433noreply@blogger.com
