Well, Universal has a right to have the blues. It was bad enough for the studio that a little Mad Max ripoff originally written for B-movie schlock king Roger Corman grew into the most expensive film ever made.

Law enforcement officials, who also testified, strongly disagreed,describing militiamen as "disturbing and dangerous aggressors." Senators were also skeptical. Sen. Max Baucus (D-Mont.) said most militia groups share two fundamental beliefs: fear of government and "a deep strain of racism and anti-Semitism."
