"It's strange how pulling a trigger is easier than playing the guitar. Easier to destroy, than to create."

This man took what he held dear right in front of him; a former girlfriend and put a decent size hole in his hand as well.

"May 28 "You know, it's easier to pull the trigger than play guitar. Easier to destroy than to create." This was a very entertaining movie and I think it's even better than the first one. Danny Trejo's character was great for a non-speaking role."
