i have heard that some mental health groups are trying to get persons to boycott this film due to its depiction and use of the word retarded. but i think all they are doing is making people want to see what in the movie would cause persons offense. if not for all the press they are creating, i would have never thought twice bout the movie and would not have gone out to see it. if you have seen the naked gun movies…you pretty much get the idea and the schtick involved here. but now i want to go out and see it.

i have an aunt whom is retarded and i am not offended by that word. retard just means slowed. they have a slower thought process and are not able to mature past a certain age mentally, all the while physically being judged by their apparent age. doesnt make them stupid or funny, but why fear the word? that is all it is. when i was little and someone would tease me i would always be told by my parents,family and sitters…”Sticks and Stones can break my bones, but words can never hurt me!” but nowadays everyone is overly emo and they have a Farenheit 451 attitude about free speech.

In the end, they have not gotten my support and i think the film studio can thank them for the extra few million they have given them in free publicity and increased awareness of the film. after Indiana Jones and The Dark Knight…summer releases were pretty much done. but now with this film it is gonna do pretty good as well. people are so stupid! if someone wants a boycott, it just makes me want to go against them…especially when it is a retarded argument! *hee hee*
