At this time of epidemic degredation of society, I call on all patriotic Americans to boycott the Oscars.
Modern Hollywood continues to crank out movie after movie full of violence and explicit sexuality, even in movies aimed at children. What is more, these movies attack traditional marriage and family at every turn.
The Oscars are nothing more than a celebration of this debauchery. Do not indulge in this immoral sleaze fest.

Ditto on that. Rather than renting a DVD, borrow one from a friend. (Keep it legal, don't make illegal copies.) Hollywood gets a royalty on most video rentals and views from streaming sites like NetFlix. Just borrow a dvd from a friend and you can save money you will not be giving your money to Hollywood so they can just corrupt more people. No sense in financing our own destruction.
