I hardly feel that Japan's citizens and those who have been killed and sickened by radiation would not appreciate being compared to fictional serial killers.

I wouldn't ever condone book burning, but this manual should be thrown in the bonfire!

While I in no way intend to make light of peoples illnesses, I have to say....why are people so damn sensitive.

This world does not need anymore sympathy, we need more empathy.

Do not even get me started on PC.

The problem in the country is that people do more feeling than thinking.

Honestly, this does not bother me. I mean, maybe I would feel different if I were a claimant, but I doubt it. The type of guy I am, I try to find humor in sad situations. Helps me feel better, but I keep that humor to myself because not everyone is up for humor during sad times.

So, strictly speaking for myself, I am fine with it. Hey, it would make me smile to read about Freddy Getting treated by Hannibal Lecter. I believe PC is killing this country and people are way to sensitive.

But, I can see how people would be offended. In other words, I can see both points of view. Doesn't bother me but I can see how it would bother some.

My thinking? These people who will be needing this manual, have much bigger things to worry about than the names used for this manual.

if something like this happens and your biggest concern is the names they used....your priorities need to be fix'd i understand why it could be offense but i just thought it was creative....because if you look past the whole "murder lots o people" freddy was burned jason was drowned and now they both live with permanent issues...just like someone would from radiation.. you cant just look at it as oh hey they we're murder's maybe the writes were looking at a bigger picture.

OK. I'm confused.
So, it's not OK to make jokes about leppers, homosexuals, and cancer survivors, but it's OK to give fictional serial killer names to the victims of radiation.

My, what are we becoming?

How is one considered to be acceptable and overly PC, but the others aren't?

If any of you ever suffered radiation burns, it's OK to say, "Hey, Freddy Krueger, does your melted butt one another beer?"

When Presidents take over they get to appoint people to head Federal Agencies.

If Miss BloodMoney gets appointed to head the Department of Labor and she can screw over 50,000 people from getting compensated for Radiation Exposure....she just made her boss money. Free'd up Federal Appropriations within the Agency so the Boss can award a contract to Mr. MoneyBags who provided funding for his campaign.


We're still running on the 'Spoils' system where Americans get robbed. It's been that way, forever.
