Sounds like the NFHS rules writers!

LOL!

In the movie this lady tells a gang banger to leave the kid alone or she will come back and bring her gun!

The Coaches were rolling in to visit during Michaels High school season, I think Phil Fulmer and the boys were a bit busy at that time.

There were lots of those kinds of inaccuracies. When you go, no way, oh well it is just a movie! Smile!

At least get the scene right.

She informed the banger not to threaten her or her family because she is always packing. Quite a bit different really.

Not at all...but then I support the right of citizens to arm themselves in their own defense. I actually loved that scene. Feel free to twist that into however you like.

Sheesh... it wasn't a friggin' documentary! Anyone over the age of 10 (and quite a few below the age of 10) knows that "based on a true story" means "just about anything other than the very basic premise is subject to change and probably has been changed".

I haven't watched the movie but have read the book. If you have read the book it becomes very easy to see why some siblings have been left out. Many were taken away due to his mother's situation in life.

Actually, the critic reminds me of some people who won't believe what they're told by people who should know.

I am a life member of the NRA myself Welpe. I meant she threaten the gangbanger even worse. I am sure he was going to take that. How about the scene where big mike fights all the armed gang bangers and gets out alive.
