I get tired of Hollywood & various Talking Heads putting people down because of the places they live, their ethnic/racial makeup, culture etc.
This shit gets old, and it is perpetrated to keep people divided.

Worth your while to read.

(Edit: This entire concept of this movie and the way it was handled was offensive to me.  Obviously the producers, etc. didn't read the book as anything but an outline for a self-serving political script.  I raged for a couple of hours and Melon's finally gave up on me for the night.  They had no right to treat that personal exposé they way they did.  Fuck them to death with 40-grit condoms!)

This is why more than half of the Elmore Leonard novels (non-westerns) made into movies are total shit.  Potential producers/directors have no fucking idea what they're really about.
