RE: Tarantino flicks brought that same criticism of escalated gore and violence.

I don't really buy that watching screen violence will make someone violent as most people who have watched violent films don't go around killing people. It's used as an excuse because people want to blame something (other than guns of course). Every other country in the world watches the Terminator and Quentin Tarantino films. The rest of the world all watches the same US films. So the correlation isn't there.

Perhaps it's that the USA is so totally PRUDISH and closed minded that the vast sexual frustration in the USA is the root cause of angry men who can't get laid go out and get violent due to their inadequacy.

In Europe they showed TV and films with a lot of nudity and sex and yes they would place violence in the R and X rated equivalency. The US did it the other way.

Shoot 100 people with giddy glee but man - never show a boob!

Nudity and sex are natural things that make people feel good - can't bloody well show any of that! But kill 100 people in a bloodbath - hey no problem. The funny thing is that most everyone on this forum were sucking milk out of a boob as babies - that life providing boob was then made shameful by religious morons mostly in the southern US. All of whom are packing heat 24/7. Backwater Deliverance donkeys screwing up the country. Yeehaw - killing is good - boobs are terrible cover your eyes. WTF!
