sacramentalistWe watched a documentary on William Powell, the author of the Anarchist Cookbook. He wrote it in the early 70's at 19.
Powell has lived out of the US since the 70's, and has repeatedly disavowed the book.
The interviewer basically went through a list of various mass killings where the perpetrator had the cookbook in their possession, asking about them in a way to make it seem a surprising Powell know about every incident and feel personal responsibility for each and every event.
I saw a good review on IMDB ("Why not blame Marilyn Manson, too?")
The director worked on Tosh.0 -- I'm not shocked. It was uncomfortable, breezy, and pretty pointless. D-
