Man On Fire (5 Out of 5 Graves)

This is one of my favorite go to movies.

Denzel Washington play an alcoholic ex-soldier for hire looking for work in the tough streets of mexico as a domestic body guard. He’s hardened and drinks to dull the pain of memories that only get revealed in flashes of gunfire in his nightmares.

He’s hired by the questionable head of the Ramos family to protect his wife and daughter, and things rapidly spin out of control as soon as he is hired.  Mr. Ramos has orchestrated a plan that goes south as soon as it begins, setting up  Denzel’s John Creasy to go on a killing rampage as he attempts to get revenge for the loss of the only thing that’s made him feel in a very long time.

Man On Fire is a touching and powerful movie.

I really struggle with what my response is sometimes.

On one hand I really like to go to the range and shoot.  But on the other I see some people at gun shows and at gun stores I wouldn’t let babysit a pet hamster.

I guess the bottom line for me is that in a perfect world were everyone was rational I wouldn’t have a problem with these bump fire technologies, but unfortunately we live in a world that is less than perfect.

I don’t really see a reason any normal person would need the “automatic like” fire power that bump fire or belt fed weapons would provide. If you really want/need this type of firepower go get a class 3 license and buy a machine gun.

I like to shoot, and consider myself very pro gun.  I just don’t get how restricting something like this would take away anyone’s rights.

Its the first cold morning so far!

I’m so psyched. I actually had to put sweat pants on it was so chilly.

I’m ready for the snow, bring it on.

Another awesome decal for your car.  Show your zombie love to the world.

A crazed Massachusetts man has been arrested and pleads guilty to child pornography charges after his online chats alerted authorities to his planned activities.

Geoffrey Portway, 40, was apparently into some pretty weird and disgusting stuff. On top of trading child porn online he liked to watch children being cooked and prepped as food. This turned into a plan on his part to kidnap kids, torture and abuse them, and ultimately murder and consume them.

Crazy enough that there is one sicko like this out there, but online he found at least two more “friends” who were into the same things. These two have also been arrested. One of them was apparently associated with a church where he was a puppeteer.

Besides the stuff they found on his computer the man appeared to be ready to go through with his plans. He had a cage in his basement, tons of bondage gear, and the thing that totally disgusted me, a castration tool used on farms along with a bag of the rubber bands the “gun” uses.

Totally sick.

I hope they throw the book at these guys, and I do think that more sever punishments should be an option.

Corporations are making record profits, but schools are still struggling to make budget and the average worker’s salary is stagnant or down.

Make the ultra wealthy and corporations pay their fair share.

World War Z is now available on Blu-ray, DVD, Digital Copy  and of course in book form.
