War is war. Soldiers and civilians die. Fact of life. No such thing as a "legal" or "illegal" war. Did we any more "legally" blow the hell out of Hiroshima and Nagasaki than Hitler "legally" invaded Poland? It's simply war; the bureaucracy can rot. Never in history has there been a war without spilling innocent blood, so why expect one from Bush or Obama? Is it terrible civilians die? Yes, but don't act so shocked. The western world has yet to experience the horrors of communism, fascism and oppression the peoples of eastern Europe and parts of Asia have experienced.

I think you all fail to see the bigger picture. Lets say guns are in fact ''evil'' and you remove them from the population. The military (read: arm of the government) would have guns, and I suppose you're going to tell me the goverment would use the military to protect you.
Of course they would protect you, like the militaries of 1930s Germany, Soviet Union, and Vietnam protect their gun-less citizens! Of course, nobody ever died by the millions in those countries as a result of corrupt governments! It cant happen in the west! Not in UK, Not in America! Not in Canada... it could NEVER happen! Right?

Indeed murder rates do drop in a society where guns are illegal. Examples? 1930s Germany, Soviet era Russia, Cuba, North Korea, Vietnam... Wonderful counties whose example we should follow, I suppose?
If they ban guns, can we use knives instead? They dont jam, or run out of bullets.

I applaud the creators for trying to make a life-size Goku & crew, but honestly, some things are best represented in their original form. I've dreamt of a motion picture DB for years, but the my fantasy of it is probably better than anyone else's big screen live representation of it.
