Subject: SLS: CONCHR warning about movie "Contact" (fwd)
Cc: VABIGAL@aol.com
This reminds me of the movie Foster did
about a gang rape in a bar, which was
filled with hostile feminist distortions.
I remember specifically the scene in which
Foster rams the truck of one of the bystanders,
when she encounters him later in the parking
lot of the local grocery store. She, of course,
could have been charged with ADW, but the movie
just slides on past that crime. Due process of
law? Nah! Just castrate them all!! Right, Jody?
