Les Carabiniers is the most hipster film ever made

1. Lo-fi to the extreme
   
2. Hell of ironic and antiwar
3. Requires a liberal arts degree to understand (classical allusions, marxist ideology)
   
4. French; Godard; photo negative
   

Gay marriage amendments

First of all, don't get me wrong, I don't think that state constitutions should be amended as to restrict marriage between a man and a woman. But I just have to say that the protests that are going on right now probably would have been much more useful before election day. Intuitively, it seems that picketers are much less likely to influence the adjudicative process than the democratic process.

I am also uncomfortable with protesting outside of churches also from a strategic and moral standpoint. Scapegoating the LDS while ignoring the larger causes for the amendments' passage is shortsighted and leads to hatred. LDS make up less than 2% of the population in California and even less in Florida (though more in Arizona). Not only do the protests directed at LDS not help change public opinion, but they could easily degenerate into another form of the same bigotry that amendment opponents justly decry.
