Arnold Schwarzenegger's hometown disowns him.

It seems he had his name in his hometown's website erased as well as a stadium that was named after him, after his hometown's disagreement with big S and the execution of Stanley "Tookey" Williams.

I just think it is a little disheartening for him that he will never be able to go back to the town he grew up in again. Sad thought, really.

Are you stupid, honestly, I hope you really dont think like you talk like here on KMC, if you actually do your the exact example of why most of the world hates the US.

so who cares what you say, your American, is that fair to say?? Not really

Exactly..who cares. I doubt Arnold is going to cry about it. He can buy the damn town if he wanted to.

Not you, but then again I don't care what you care. And whether or not you care about that, I don't care, so save yourself the trouble of replying with "I don't care" or "Who cares?".

Anyway, you didn't see this coming? Good move by Austria in my opinion. Bad move by Arnold.

Bardock42
Well Schwarzenegger doesn't seem to care, so well I guess they are better of without each other.

Yeah he did basically want to cut off all ties but still I would have a hard time doing that regardless of differences in social issues.
I wonder what stance the officials in his home town stand on murderers and their punishment. I know they are against the DP, so do they just stick someone in prison for their entire life?
Anyone who can kill an innocent unprotected person should at least be considered to be put to death, IMO.

They didn't disown him- he removed his consent for them to use his name. He disowned them.

I understand that a good portion of the town's council- aware that their revenues will now plummet- are trying to get him to change his mind.

I think the bigger tragedy is that he is the Governor of this state.

But I agree with his descision not to call for a stay of execution.

My opinion too, just to prove that soeone is guilty is hard. And Life in prison is basically like death...just...longer....

Funny thing for an austrian to do. But what kind of policies does he have. How is the economy going, what crazy ass laws were passed (as for his standpoint on the execution I actually think he is right with that one)

I would guess that every 'proud republican party member' applaudes this action that he took and cheer him for being a loyal american and not taking any crap.

I also see alot of people voting for him because of something as stupid as this. I guarantee you this will come up during his reelection campaign.

i also agree with his decision to not stay the execution...

Yes, you are both right. It was on teh other day, and I watched too much of it because the remote was on teh other side of the room. It had the kid who played Anakin Skywalker in teh first SW prequel.

and Bush is better because...?

And age limits are important because one has to consider the agendas of foreign groups and/or governments. oh right! that does make sense in a way i suppose. but i can't see that ever happening as it'd probably discriminate against a potential candidate based on age.

i was comparing the two as both being tragic..

I havent read the whole thread, but I used to be a big Arnold fan, I love all his movies (I know he's a bad actor, but still) but since he became Bush II and voted against gay marriages, I truly cant stand him anymore... I really thought he would not be that shallow *disappointed*

I think there's a difference between a good actor and a good part. It's too bad that I agree. He's not always a bad actor, he just appears infilms that are an embarassment to him.

I used to date a mormon. Their religion is...different. Actually, I view it as a cult like pyramid scheme. Instead of just getting others to join, you actually reproduce to teh point that you could populate a small country with one family.

I've long suspected that the mormons are up to something. Like some sort of pseudo religious social experiment. Poisoning the coffee supplies or something, and then, when everyone is dead, they will inherit the EARTH!!! What with their numbers. Or not.

As to "Ahnold" - is it actually possible for a town to disown him? I mean, no matter what, that'll still be where he came from. And to be honest, does he really care?

I know one thing for certain, Australia would be happy to claim him (we've been claiming New Zealand talent for years. Some people even consider Mel Gibson something of an Australian), which would work out well for all those Americans who don't know the difference between Austria and Australia.
