Ah but its not just about anarchy it's a case of what happens when you let fear and anger take control of your judgement and in turn bring the wrong people into power who in turn work on that fear and insecurity and use it against you .

The scenes of mass graves being filled and covered in lime choked me reminding me of the genocide in the Balkans when I was there.

The weeding out of those who were different, black, gay , lesbian, who didn't conform to the white christian middle class , god fearing background , who were then taken away and used as lab rats. Maybe a bit on the extreme side but often made me think ' be careful what you wish for as you might just get it'

Look at how the media ran how people thought and did the dirty work , feeding images of fear and hatred into the minds of millions... not a million miles away from what we have now if you watch your early evening news... not much happiness on there is there?

Glad to see another Jerry Reed Fan. An un-sung hero of music who sadly passed away 2 years ago with barely a mention. His version of Fulsom Prison Blues, in my opinion, knocks Johnny Cash's into a cocked hat. R.I.P Snowman.

[wiltshire builders]

I used to have it on VHS. Remember those? Really powerful film. Affected me for days afterwards.
Bugger I meant to put City of God down too. Can I have 6 films please?

I remember my troopy crying his eyes out watching the videos of the genocide, 264 most of his career, no one could fail to be moved. Maybe we were out there same time? I was 3div and we went in with IFOR to take over from NATO, then at the end of the tour posted to 1div, and back out again...ggrrr Mostly Gorni Vakuf, but Banja Luka with 1div.
