100. Did you lot ever see 'Amazing Grace and Chuck'?

If not it is about a boy who plays Little League and he decides that since there are too many nukes in the ground, he cannot play sports anymore until they are gone. At first, it is just a little story in the local paper, but when a major NBA athlete reads about it and decides that he likes the idea, he and other sports figures decide to join the kid. Well, this does not sit well with some, and certainly with the rednecks who live in the area where this is happening. So, finally, several of them come rolling into the yard of the house and pile out, all yelling about "Murica-love it or leave it!", "Take your pacifist-ass back to the commute, hippy!", and so on. So, most of the athletes come charging out of the house and run the idiots off. But, my fave part is when this defensive lineman comes running up to the truck that the rednecks drove onto the lawn. He literally lifts the front end up and pushes it back onto the street and into another of the redneck caravan vehicles. When the rednecks see this, they all retreat off of the lawn and into the street. The lineman stands there with his muscles bulging and yells, "I am NOT a pacifist!"

(I, for one, sincerely hope that they never figure it out. I prefer them to think I am weak and supplicant. Then, I can show them how weak with the Gladius Espaniola I have by the door... among other things...)
