   Corrections to your blog entry:

   1. Deputy Goff doesn’t exactly look like a young guy to me — see youtube.com/watch?v=6lVn3S_i9us — Deputy Goff is the one with the shiny-bald head and the white moustache, probably in his early forties.

   2. Deputy Goff further exacerbated the situation when he asked the crowd if they wanted the protestors to leave or stay — if he wasn’t a law-enforcement officer, he probably would have been arrested for “creating a public disturbance,” that sort of thing.
   3. The cops are saying that no one is allowed to make a video recording of them talking to the protestors. I’d like to see the Chapter and Section of the New Mexico Statutes Annotated that explicitly allows cops to give people orders to this effect. There are way too many cases of cops going after anyone recording them to NOT insist on this sort of documentation.

   The incident in question took place at the Journal Pavilion, not the Hard Rock Casino. The Pavilion is a few miles north of the Hard Rock Casino (formerly the Isleta Casino and Resort). I worked at the Casino for 4 years and 8 months, and have been to three Ozzfests at the Pavilion. Maybe the concert was sponsored partially or wholly by the Casino — I dunno, but the facility isn’t actually owned by the Casino. At any rate, the Casino has been holding concerts, boxing matches, etc., in its bingo hall since it opened in March, 2001 (when I started there).

   The fact that Sheriff’s Deputies were there in force (as they were at the Ozzfests I’ve attended) leads me to believe that their running security for the Journal Pavilion is an official function of the BCSO. You don’t see that often with events held on property that’s entirely privately-owned, as “chief’s overtime”  comes out to something like 30-40 FRN per hour, per officer. It’s WAY cheaper to hire a private outfit for the task, and there are plenty of those in town.

   The facility is apparently on State trust land, leased to Bernalillo County, then sub-leased to Live Nation, the outfit that runs the Journal Pavilion. I’m guessing that as such, Live Nation can play it either way, like the Hard Rock Casino does — it can be public property when they want it so (immunity from certain types of liability?), or private property when they want (discretion to kick people out at the drop of a hat, like this case).

   But your main point — when nobody’s right, everyone involved loses — spot on! I’m not defending either side in this: Deputy Goff was out of line, as were the protestors. If I had been there, I probably would have personally sided against the protestors, as I’m a fan of that type of music. Still, I’m not certain that I would have called the Deputies to complain about them unless I had been personally attacked on a physical basis. I don’t need BCSO to fight my ideological battles for me, despite Deputy Goff’s enthusiasm for doing so.

   Isn’t it lovely the sort of messes that these “public-private partnerships” create?

   Has the milk involved been pasteurized and homogenized? Has all of the systems and hardware involved been inspected by the requisite state and federal health and food safety agencies, and certified as “safe” ?

   Don’t the Feds know it’s illegal to traffick in uncertified milk?

Let’s get the bad news out of the way first. How exactly was the flick disappointing? Let me count the ways —

1. If you’re looking for plot and character development, Bitch Slap isn’t for you.
2. The gunfighting scenes aren’t at all realistic. Neither is the “K-14 Corsair railgun with carbon fiber mounts, Hellfire dampening system and Zion laser scope.”
3. One of the ladies is a secret agent with the special-ops outfit titled “Fleshforce Foxy,” her codename / callsign is “Foxy69.”
4. “Foxy69″ is operating in alpine territory dressed rather scantily, and is ordered to her next mission by her boss (“Mr. Phoenix”) through her Dick Tracy-type wrist-communicator, which displays Phoenix’s image as a hologram.
5. After receiving her new orders, “Foxy69″ receives her new outfit for the undercover assignment from a missile which lands five feet next to her, then calls down an avalanche to cover her tracks.
6. I predicted who the eventual antagonist was from the beginning. (NO, I’m not telling — sit through it and find out for yourself!)
7. The “grand prize” of their search in the desert is a canister of carbon-attacking nanites, which “Fleshforce Foxy” doesn’t want to get into the hands of a “combatant country” or “crazed libertarians.”

But then, the viewer should remember that Bitch Slap wasn’t intended to be a good movie in terms of realism, plot and characterizations. What it is intended to be is a turn-your-brain-off flick for guys, and in that regard, it succeeds admirably. There’s plenty of cleavage, softcore sex scenes of the lesbian kind, and mindless, black-comedy violence — about 105 minutes worth, in fact.

I mean, the scene where Trixie, Hel and Camero dump all of their drinking water all over each other as they’re digging at high noon in the Nevada summer sun isn’t very realistic, is it? Just accept it for what it is — hot babes splashing water all over each other’s bodies, causing their clothes to get all clingy . . .

In summary, guys, turn your brains off and enjoy.

   This is just like what happened with Robert Byrd in West Virginia (Google search for “named after Robert C. Byrd”). And look how George the Younger named the the U.S. Navy’s latest aircraft carrier after Bush the Elder.

   I propose Constitutional amendments, at both the federal and state levels, to the effect of that no item of public property (buildings, public roads, vehicles, ships, aircraft, spacecraft, rifles, pistols — anything paid for from the public purse) shall be named after any living person, and that any all proposals to name publicly-owned items after people shall be voted upon by the public as a whole.
