just remember the July 1st episode - Gun Nation PARTICIPANT - Pia Lalli, 39 RESIDES - Brockton, MA OCCUPATION - Aerobics Instructor AIRDATE - Tuesday, July 1, 2008 After Pia learned that her friend had been killed by a schizophrenic man wielding a gun in 1996, she became a gun control advocate who has fought to pass stricter gun laws in the U.S. Pia believes that the world would be free from gun violence only by prohibiting the sale of guns to anyone outside of law enforcement and armed services. For 30 Days, Pia will live in the heart of gun culture in the rural town of Leesburg, Ohio with gun enthusiast Ken Ekermeyer, 39, and his 15-year-old son Zach. Ken is an avid gun collector and rarely leaves home without his gun strapped to his side. Ken believes carrying a gun is his right guaranteed to every American by the Second Amendment. As Pia struggles to understand the Ekermeyer's beliefs and somewhat isolated way of life, she will work at a local gun store and experience what it is like to carry a gun in public, learn to handle and fire weapons and will introduce Ken to other gun control activists who have lost loved ones to gun violence. |
this one I have to see! |
oh, but their fucking animals so who cares? so far I have been somewhat unimpressed with 30days, I liked the coal miner episode but the others I've seen have been pretty bland. WILL watch the gun control one though, sure do hope it lacks a slant. |
"Hell no! Sperm have just as much of a right to live as you and me! Eating them would be murder! (It's okay to umm...remove those blood-sucking fetuses though, and umm...dispose of them. Because that's like umm...totally different. As long as it's done in an environmentally safe way, of course." |
