2. If it is banned and I doubt if it will be
it will give us a much more POWERFUL voice. This is a democracy - not a kingdom.

3. After July 30
I'd like to think it wouldn't really need any more advertising. If they actually tried to pull that off tho we'll have to look very hard at every movie that is allowed to advertise and then turn it back on them.

6. They're obviously fudging their shorts over this movie...
If they weren't so afraid of the effect that it might have on the electorate they wouldn't be putting so much money and effort into trying to suppress it. What the poor fools don't realize is that by doing this they're providing millions of dollars worth of free promotion, but then again, what do you expect of a bunch whose heads are jammed so firmly up their rectums?
