Sorry, didn't mean to imply that. From the bits and pieces I've seen of these 'Bum Fights', however, I think it does apply.
I've known several 'homeless' guys, that lived at shelters and held down decent jobs, and have gotten out on their own again. They weren't 'bums,' and wouldn't have beat anyone up for a six-pack.
But there are some who, whether from original mental problems, or long-term substance abuse, who have been sheparded by society to the edges, and been given that nudge over the edge, and subsequently ignored/forgotten. These are who are filmmakers were preying upon.
So would it be okay to take a camera into a home for the 'developementally disabled,' and have them beat each other up, for cake and ice-cream? It's just a bunch of 'tards, innit?
