Hey, White People: Michael Douglas Is the Villain, Not the Victim, in Falling Down

In other news, your dog wants steak.

Mister D-FENS was really the villain of the movie. He may not have been guilty of starting everything he was involved in, but he was no hero.

He assaulted a shopkeeper over a matter of 35 cents
He antagonized gang members instead of negotiating peacefully (what would have happened if he hadn't started swearing at them?)
He held a fast food restaurant up at gunpoint because the breakfast menu was no longer being served ("the customer is always right" is a myth)
He fired a bazooka at a construction site simply because the construction crew wasn't working hard, and the road work was not actually necessary (which is something cities do to ensure that their funding is completely spent by the end of the fiscal year - and that's actually important)
He pulled a gun on an indignant golfer (giving the man a heart attack) after trespassing on private property
He terrified an innocent family
He was stalking his wife and child, despite a demonstrably valid restraining order
He told an armed cop that he had a gun and was going to shoot him, forcing the cop to act pre-emptively -- compounded by the fact that since he was not carrying a real weapon, the shooting was entirely for nothing.
