For instance, did you know that while a cartoon about Christmas with Santa or Easter with a bunny can be rated G, any depiction of biblical Jesus bumps the rating to PG for "thematic elements"?

    The righteous smiting of bad guys, especially when done with leverguns, transcends politics.
    I had an ER nurse in a class. I noticed she kept taking all head shots. Her response when asked why, "'I've seen too many people who have been shot in the chest putting up a fight in the ER." Point taken.

    Especially when done with a righteous caliber, such as the 45-70.

    And yet several entire genre's of movies reinforce how important it can be to have a gun. One can't read into it that that is their intent, and the visa versa applies a lot of the time. A lot is in the eye of the beholder.

    I did not pick up on that. Seemed more like the theme they were trying to drive, Alberto touched on when they were across from the bank.

    And at the end of the day, desperate people doing dangerous things. Outlaws being Outlaws.


    I absolutely love this guys work. Wind River is one of my favorite movies.
