This time the Matrix is playing a part in the insanity of that Lee Boyd Malvo guy, you know that sniper?
Heres the paragraph im talking about:
When in the movie does he do *that* exactly??
He fights yes, but he is *not* freed from the matrix by fighting, hes freed because the red pill is part or a trace program, which allows the Neb's crew to locate his body in the real world, and take him aboard their ship.
But it just goes to show you, theyll use anything as a scapegoat wont they? I mean there was *nothing* in the matrix about sniping, they didnt even show a sniper rifle!
Ive seen that movie dozens of times, and I have no urge to go on a rampage with a gun...
This time the Matrix is playing a part in the insanity of that Lee Boyd Malvo guy, you know that sniper?
Heres the paragraph im talking about:
Cornell's presentation will include a 12-minute clip of the film "The Matrix" as well as clips of violent video games that Malvo and Muhammad played together.
Social worker Carmeta Albarus testified Thursday about Malvo's interest in "The Matrix," in which the hero shoots his way out of a computer-imposed world of virtual reality.
There is no indication in Malvo's case that "The Matrix" is a core issue of the insanity defense.
Albarus was not permitted to talk about Malvo's impressions of the film. But she said she watched the movie and saw Malvo in the role of the hero, Neo, who brings about a massive societal change. Muhammad filled the role of Morpheus, who served as Neo's mentor, Albarus said.
"Neo was going to contribute significantly to change of the system," Albarus said.

Not much makes sense in the states. To me, at least
