I'm surprised the Tulsa ABC affil is showing Pvt. Ryan

in this bible-thumping 75% Chimp voting backward political sewer. (I never saw it before, sure started out with lotsa blood & gore)

1. Me too,here's a CNN vote to show what BS this whole thing is...

Fucking stations with their knees shaking over whether they could show SPR. Hell whats next? Afraid to insult the Fuhrer on TV??

2. It's ok to show someone getting their guts blown out,

an arm removed, or a bullet through the head.

As long a breast is not shown.

4. Actually, my very conservative AP Government teacher

thought that the stations not playing it were showing a liberal bias.

6. Bible-belt Central PA got to see it--ABC in DC or Baltimore showed it

and those air waves do cross state lines! I saw it for the second time and thought it was magnificent.

With a completely naked woman in the first five minutes.

I thought us socialists weren't free?

9. with all due respect...

i dont think people here want to be surfing around the dial and see a naked woman. cable stations legally can show whatever they want, but choose not to in the interest of ratings.

10. Oddly enough, it was shown in Red Arkansas.

It appeared on the very station that endorsed bu$h in the 2000 "election." Perhaps the showing had something to do with the fact that Modern Gun Deer Season opens this weekend.
