I have just watched Dirty Harry on the network. I took count of the killings
et all and this is the tally. This is of coourse if none were missed out due
to the editing.

	Girl in swimming pool - Shot by killer
	Harry gets shot in right leg
	2 Bank robbers in the getaway car killed ( Harry shoots driver )
	1 other bank robber is shot
	10 year old boy killed by the killer
	Preist killed by the killer
	14 year old girl kidnapped, has tooth pulled, gets raped and left to
	   die by the killer  (not seen)
	Harry gets beaten up
	Chico (sp?) Harrys partner gets shot
	Harry stabs killer in leg
	Killer pays $200 to sadist for beating (Tries to blame Harry)
	Killer robs liquor store after hitting owner over the head with a
           bottle
	Killer hijacks schoolbus with 7 kids and driver
	Killer gun whips bus driver
	Harry shoots killer in shoulder
	Harry shoots again and wastes killer
	End of film

The total as I see it comes down to this:

Total dead			 = 7

People shot and didn't die:
				Harry
				Chico (sp?)
				Killer (second shot was fatal)
				Bank robber

Beating				= 4

Sabbings			= 1


               did I miss anybody ??
