If this was some amateur snuff on YouTube or elsewhere, it wouldn't be nearly as disturbing. Maybe that's the point. Is the only difference between the 'good guy' and the 'bad guy' their choice of victims?

If one has been Following Things for the last five years, it pretty much is the official action, if not the position. ...which might be taken to be the point of the production; perhaps it's a subtle satire on the USA; perhaps a bit too subtle for the media critics. --\n-------------------------------------------------------------------\n* Jack Troughton jake at consultron.ca \n [link\|http://consultron.ca\|http://consultron.ca] [link\|irc://irc.ecomstation.ca\|irc://irc.ecomstation.ca] \n Kingston Ontario Canada [link\|news://news.consultron.ca\|news://news.consultron.ca] *\n------------------------------------------------------------------- Edited by jake123 Sept. 21, 2006, 08:06:32 PM EDT Expand All History

Hall.
