White House Down - Really?.......

It's no wonder we're being listened to by our government. With movies like these - blowing up National Landmarks - taking over the White House - I guess if I was in government I'd want to know who was making me a target.

Who makes these movies? And why? That's all we need to do is give people ideas. If I'm not mistaken wasn't there another movie this year that blew up the White House?

And we call this entertainment.

Rape, murder, robbery, kidnapping & so on, I can use this as my defense to arm myself to the teeth. Right? Just saying.
