>While normally I do draw a distinction between the subject and the means in art, I would not be particularly interested in watching someone defecate.

of US citizens and others by terrorists and muslim fanatics. Visit Michael Savage The Savage Nation website. Know your enemy. After you've seen a fake cutting of a human ear in Reservoir Dogs, imagine this. You will have nightmares. Blood gushing everywhere. The struggle of the handcuffed man as someone gradually slices his head off with an ordinary knife. But why did I watch them?

If you prefer not to see them portrayed in films, good for you.I'd be keen on a thread about the Teletubbies!
