I know the difference between news media and the effort for aid, and film making and profit and fame. What I also know is that the media thrives on ad revenue. Crisis aid might not be the last thing on the media's mind, but I tell you what, it isn't the first. Yeah, everyone wants to make money and climb the financial ladder, but when it comes at the personal expense of others then it sucks for people who are compassionate. I might make remarks on here about "wanting to see people jump from the bridge", but I'm about as nice and compassionate a guy you'll ever come across (unless I'm drunk). I am truly just intrigued by the concept. No, not he comcept of watching people smack the water, but really the whole cycle of what drives people to suicide from the beginning to the end.
When I was younger I was reckless. I never drank or did drugs, but as a teen I thought I was invincible. Now, being older I am very concerned about self preservation.
All I'm saying is that the bridge commitee has an alternate agenda and that's preserving the image of the bridge. There's not reason for them to compare those films to snuff films. If they want to complain about people killing other people then they need to address the President in Chief.
And yes kOna, mad people out here in Vegas killing them selves at the hotels. Everytime I go up to the hallways in the luxor I get vertigo. If you were drunk, it would be a pretty simple death process if you were to stumble by your doorway too much...
