  1. Kinda like Mel Gibson and Benecio Del Toro doing the same thing. Reading from a script. While their intentions may be good, it would look better if they were saying what was on their mind rather than reading from a script. Just sayin.

    1. I agree. That is what I was hoping for. I was hoping he would go off and say “from my cold dead hands” But, my 14 year old loves the walking dead and he is her favorite character. The words need to be heard by the young generation and you dont get hollywood types to speak these words too often.

      1. Yea my wife and I love the walking dead and he is our favorite character too. It would be nice if people like him spoke what was on their mind. It would make it more meaningful.

        1. alright, I will admit it, I watch it also. My daughter made me promise to watch a couple episodes with her. I hate mainstream TV. But once I started watching I had to keep going. I keep hoping thst they will find out the the NWO created the zombies, but I doubt if that will happen. They will probably blame it on extremist white anti-gov. folks at the last episode

    2. I have to respectfully disagree. Sadly, the only way the younger generation will hear these powerful words is through celebrities like this.
      Your country produced some great people and orators over the years. What happened?

      1. What happened?

        “Look! I just bought a new I-Pod!”

        “Look! It’s Dancing with the Stars. Who will win?”

        “Hey, who won the football game?”

        “Look! I can tell all my friends where I’m at 24/7. Isn’t that cool? Like, for sure!”

        “Look at me. I have the latest Kim Kardashian purse. Now I can be just like her. Maybe I can even find a boyfriend and screw up my life like her. It’ll be totally cool and then I can go on Jerry Springer and even the People’s Court and make myself look like a fool all for a whopping $500. And after they tax the shit out of it, I’ll have $5.00 left over to spend. Isn’t America great?!”

        Any questions?
