As far as gun recoil in films. I think if actors trained with live rounds they would be much more appreciative and respectful too. (But that would be extremely costly.) The only actors that I can think of that will actually fake the recoil are Eastwood and Costner. I also think Hanks faked the recoil at the end of Saving Private Ryan with his 1911. There could be a few others as well.
I shall do that when I have more free time, still taking regents/final exams for school this week. x P. I'll post 1-11 each in seperate posts since the word limit will surely not allow me to post the whole article in one post.

I haven't been able to enjoy summer either. I'm stuck at home taking care of my sick mother

I have to read three books this summer since it's one of my personal goals. I'm now reading To Kill A Mockingbird, then I'll advance to The Stand.

Only three? I'm probably going to read about 15-20. It's not suprising though, I read about 85-100 books a year

To Kill a Mockingbird is a great book. The movie's really good too, I showed it to my very racist 79 year old grandpa. He loved the ending, hated the movie. x P

What was To Kill a Mocking Bird about again?


Back to gun myths...the author forgot about how shotguns to the chest can send you flying back 10 feet.
