Why not a pie in the eye

James Wan is the director of the latest run of violence porno from Hollywood - the SAW franchise, which glorify violence for it's own sake.
Silly me, but hey, I'm up for starting a campaign. I think we should take on ole James. Not with violence - because hey, that's what offends me - but with old fashioned cream pies in the face.
You can get a good look at him by googling him.

Here's what I propose. Pass the picture around, take a good look at him. He wants to be famous; make him famous. Post his picture everywhere. And anytime he steps out of his apartment, or goes into his local grocery store to buy bottled water, or get a mocha latte at his local coffee joint, or stops to get gas, or stops at Rodeo Drive to buy t shirts, or walks down the beach in Malibu, or steps off the airport in Brisbane, splat! He gets it right in the face with a cream pie. Yep,
someone - anyone - though it strikes me as funnier if its old ladies and little kids - will plaster him right in the face with a cream pie.

No doubt if this starts to happen, and happen often, Mr. Wan will find some way to spin this into even more publicity - maybe even turn it into a People Magazine spread. Any publicity is good, right?

But maybe, just maybe, if it keeps happening, every morning, every afternoon, every evening, turn the corner and splat, Mr. Wan will start to get just a tad skittish.

Hello, Mr. Wan, oh, and by the way - Splat.

Perhaps his own family, his mom and dad will join in the fun, and when he goes home - splat.
Goes to the airport - splat.

Let's turn this into a national - even international phenomenom. And not only limit it to Mr. Wan, who it strikes me got so overwhelmed by the possibility of make it big in Hollywood, that
his common sense, and morality went straight out the window.

Yep, I know: The Saw franchise is only make believe. Movies. It's only pretend. I get it. But it's, well, obscene to glorify violence, so I think the world at large should strike back. Shaving cream or Boston cream, right in the kisser. Further, should anyone be arrested for this: let them ask for a jury trial, and folks, we serve on juries. Let them off.

Hell this could become a national sport.

Now I'm not calling for this in politics, because, though it's been called Hollywood for the ugly, politics is my favorite sport. We can all just agree to disagree. Old fashioned, I know, but there you are.

But Mr. Wan, I wonder if at times your own Mother and Father haven't wanted to wack you upside the back of your head. What you do affects others. You aren't making money in a vacuum.
You look a little young to have kids - but think what you are doing. Wake the hell up.

Please.
