For some people, the dogged pursuit of Garcia is now proof that he must be the "bad guy" the Feds say he is. I mean, why else would they be doing this? He has to be guilty, right?

Because they don't care about the motivations, only how they can spin the moment in their favor. Not catching the killer is probably the ideal situation for them, honestly. No pesky counter-narrative to their hateful response, so they can shape the public any way they want.

As a Tennessean, I can definitively say that you give Burchett WAY too much credit. He is as dumb as they come, maybe even dumber than he seems. Just a profoundly stupid man.

ONLY ANGELS HAVE WINGS (1939) and PORCO ROSSO (1992)

I would also enjoy HISTORY IS MADE AT NIGHT (1937) paired with JOE VERSUS THE VOLCANO (1990)

It's mostly disliked, but I love it. If you can get on its vibe (jangle meets 70s Beach Boys album) you might enjoy it. And "Imitation of Life" and "All the Way to Reno" are two of my favorite R.E.M. songs.

Thanks for posting this, I must have watched it a dozen times as a kid.

They already have churches to teach this bullshit. Is that not enough for these ghouls?

Answer: of course not. They rail against grooming, then turn around and pass this Handmaid's Tale nonsense. These are dumb, evil people.

I think it's worse than that. For the pundit class, it simply didn't matter if it was true or not: what mattered was whether it was effective or not. They've treated every controversy the same way ever since, and it has destroyed discourse in this country.

So sorry for your loss, Bill
