Today I watched a lot of Intervention for the first half of the day. I just needed something that would pass the time while I did some other things, so that Intervention is it!
I then went to watching a movie called October Country which is about a very dysfunctional family. It’s pretty slow…a dad with PTSD, mom who allows everyone to walk on her, sisters who have all had babies early, and now those babies are having babies. These dysfunctional family movies are never interesting to me, it’s always just like watching home videos. The people never learn, they continue to make the same mistakes, and it is just annoying. Sigh, not much longer till this one is over. Note: This family needs to see and understand toothpaste, toothbrushes and dental appointments.
America’s Drug War: The Last White Hope is a movie I have seen before. It is a report on the way that the government uses illegal drugs to punish the poor. It’s a pretty good movie, and it goes through how the drug war is a dangerous and expensive war that is doing nothing.
Moving on to Unborn in the USA, which I am only 2 minutes in and I already would like to let the director know that he needs to speed up the background music. I am falling out asleep here. Oh my hell, we now get to watch a pro-life training, including a fun discussion of how to witness to a woman who was raped and had an abortion, including a handout called “What if she was raped??” I might throw up. The people who protest and yell at people who are going into the abortion clinics make me angry. Perhaps I should start yelling at people when they go into churches. I understand the anti-choice folk’s perspective, but it doesn’t make me think they are fair. There was one woman who had seven abortions, and now is blaming the abortions for her medical problems. Really? I am seriously pro-choice, and I think that if you have had seven abortions, there is something really, really wrong with you. Also, you can’t blame your breast cancer on your abortion, just because you had both doesn’t mean they are related and you regret your abortion.
