There are some white lies. I was in the Army from 1990-1993. I remember that the whole Somalia deal happening in 1992. The movie says 1993. One guy from that incident came to my Camp after that. He talked about it when he was drunk and told us it was a F'n slaughter.
I read on the CNN site that there is a Somali group in the states calling for people to boycott the film. They say it depicts their countrymen as savages. But aren't we all savages in that type of conflict?
Jesus, there is groups for everyone out there. I was going to start a group for people that are scared of groups and large gatherings... No one showed up....
