The producers of the show certainly know that there are terrorist elements and psychopaths who would be watching. They know that these people will be turned on by the imagery of a BATF agent being brutally murdered. They could have told the same story using different imagery. Instead of using graphic violence, they could have expressed the idea of the BATF agent getting killed with a heartrending scene of his wife getting the phone call. That certainly would not have been inflammatory.
But they didn't. The opted to go with a glorification of the act. Why? Incompetence won't wash - anybody getting to national TV has spent years in the business and is a total pro. They know what effect they are having.
True. I think the majority of the Hollywood community is on our side in this one. Folks likes Clint Eastwood have made a sincere effort to expose the BATFucks for the thugs they are. Some of you may recall that Clint has become a vocal critic of the seige at Waco and spoken out against it on several occasions.
They glorified this act of violence to encourage others to do the same. Where is the FBI? Why isn't anybody doing anything? If the life of only one BATF agent is spared, it will be worthwhile! Think of his poor wife and kids.
Yes, imagine having to be related to such a creep. Tim May wrote:

Remailers? ;-)
Though not a panacea, remailers do create some interesting possibilities for the freedom of expression.
