It's not your posts that make me sick, but the fact that you seem to think violence and death are good, light-hearted entertainment, at least when it's Mexicans getting killed.
Oh, please.
Don't be a jerk and try to play a racist card. You've seen *many* people here make light of and find entertainment in the tragic death of people regardless of race, not because of it.
While I like looking at Selma, I didn't think it appropriate for the subject matter. And the option didn't seem "more appropriate". But I don't know that it was racist.
You took me to task because of my remarks about death as entertainment in another thread but didn't challenge others, and *now* you take umbrage at similar tenor, because it involved Mexicans?
Apparently Sinatra's I Did It My Way is banned in Karaoke clubs in the Republic of the Philippines because it has sparked violent death. I didn't believe it when I first heard about it, but I was wrong.
Look, even the subject line strikes me as being insensitive, but that's me. There are a lot of people who don't seem to be affected by needless, violent death.
Until it strikes close to home.
