It would be nice if it were otherwise, but we're not there just yet. I can't help but wonder if we're going in the right direction to get there. Maybe we are and I just don't see it.
One of the few points I liked in Bowling For Columbine is that America is a society that is build on fear. The media and government see fit to perpetuate that fear and I don't see how that can do anything but make things worse.
