    I understand SW's point that omission of the flag planting doesn't necessarily mean the rest of the movie sucks, but I don't agree that it isn't really important.

    It changes the whole nature of the race to the moon and therefore changes the nature of Armstrong's efforts and historic accomplishment.

    It was the wrong thing to do.

This redrawing was necessary, according to the program, because of global warming causing the ice to melt and flooding the city. By showing the incorrect lines the murderer would benefit financially. Last week it was the lie about gun buy backs reducing crime, this week the lie of flooding in the next 10 years due to global warming. Its absurd the lengths the left and their cohorts in Hollywood will go to push their socialist agenda.
    I make it a point to avoid ever writing "LOL", but...LOL. Seriously. I watched that episode last night and the reference to "global warning" lasted about a second-and-a-half and consisted of four words spoken by one character that only marginally related to even the most minor plot point of the story. Talk about hypersensitivity!

    And by the way, while human impact on global warming is a subject of debate, the actual phenomenon is not - the scientific consensus being confirmed every year by observable environmental changes. It's a shame that people on both sides of the "human caused/not human caused" argument have so politicized the subject, because all the infighting and political wrangling is keeping governments from taking steps to prepare for what is inarguably coming down the road in the next couple of hundred years or less.

    Wasn't it Buzz Aldrin who punched some clown in the face who called him a thief and liar because he claimed the moon landing was faked?

    On a related note, NBA superstar Steph Curry has come out claiming that the moon landing was fake. Is he serious or just trolling people?

    There is a small group of people who believe the moon landing was fake. One of them got into Neil Armstrong's face and he decked the guy.

    Buzz Aldrin punched the dude in the nose. It was hilarious.


    What evidence do they cite to support that idea? Do they really think the moon landing could have been a fraud and covered up?
