Yes because Ghandi never infulenced anyone, neither did Martin Luther King.
One violent act is often overlooked by 50000 nonviolent ones.

DENNIS:Well, but you can't expect to wield supreme executive power just 'cause some watery tart threw a sword at you! ARTHUR:Shut up!

And don't think your being singled out or hated Evil, your not. Im not even passionate about T.V. week, im passionate about hating corporate america though. Not AMERICA like some people will try and spin it, CORPORATE AMERICA, and im afraid soon there will be no difference:( . But this is getting further and further a political discussion, and these tend to be heated, so dont take it as a personal attack, or anything E.B., we still love ya;)

i love tv. mainly becuase i hate silence. it scares me. like in the horror movies, where they hear CHICHICHICHIAHAHAHAH see i dont wanna hear that
i normally have it on, whats that channel. cartoon network. god i love them animes yes i do think corps suck. my friends all say 'want to go to starbucks' and i want to puke. same reason why i only watch movies on base, not at edwards or whatever that is but u cant avoid everything. food, ALL the shit in your house, movies, cds, toys, body care stuff... its impossible. it does suck to give into these shits, but at the same time too, it aint all that bad. these corps generate jobs, which is good. bill gates, a mega billion trillion gazillionaire. forget the motives, be it a love for people or for tax ride offs, fact is the man donates his monkey ass off to all kinds of charities. also, i work at the special olympics and its all sponsored, and that shit is expensive to run. and im really glad the kids have it available for them as well. sure, its advertising, but again, the kids. just like everything else, you got to pick and choose.
