Big Hollywood : The Whole Milk

Tue, 3 Mar 2009 16:09:33 +0000

This film appears to be another example of how humans enjoy turning complex issues into emotional hype. The magnificent problems born of prejudice in this country are routinely downgraded to namecalling and bad jokes by the ignorant and arrogant public. It reminds me of the kids on the playground tormenting the overweight ones. If education were a priority in this country we all might have grown up a little more tolerant of people different than ourselves. Hell, we might even have evolved enough to realize that they are not "black people", they are merely black skinned people; or that they are not "gays" or "queers", they are human beings that prefer to keep company and be intimate with others of their own sex. I observe that most people have great difficulty applying these concepts; it means that all most everything these marginalized people have to offer is lost. What a shame.

Pretty good sized rock - nice of them to let everybody know of the potential impact!!!! I suppose we can expect more of the same notification system in the future.
