Having spent my life in the Army, I don't think there are many. Further, the more you skew towards combat arms and special ops, the more conservative it gets.

*Not that I have any official opinions on the matter....just personal observations that in no way are that of the Army

They should say “embarrassingly admitted” to owning only seven.

No kidding. Reminds me of when the OR legislature gave us a little AWB scare this year, wife asks me "How many ARs do we have? Two?" ROFL, yeah we'll go with 2... Big Grin

I guess I'm a bit confused. Trump can push for a strong border, reasonable immigration process, and positive change to poor communities that have been totally failed by liberals, and be deemed as a racist inciting hatred and violence, yet these movie morons can make a film about leftists hunting and killing conservatives/Trump supporters, and its ok because its 'satire'. The hypocrisy here is off the charts....

I can recall "The Manchurian Candidate" was pulled because of JFK's assassination.


A gun in the hand is worth more than ten policemen on the phone.
The American Revolution was carried out by a group of gun toting religious zealots.

Hatred.

Intollerance.

Pathological desire to attack anybody who *dares* to think differently than them.

They are truly suffering from mental illness, but they blame US when psychos like themselves go on murder sprees.


Nope, it is the desire to sell lots of tickets and make lots of money.

I know it is tempting to ascribe political motives to Univeral (or whoever), but that isn't it. A studio will not fund anything it can't profit from.


I hope your joking.

This is how Leftists get themselves revved up to genocide. They are cowards and weaklings for the most part so they need these pep talk propaganda pieces and lies about their target to help them over the top. We are watching the Left seethe at the moment. They are not coming for us yet but they will if something doesn't change. Past is prologue. We've all seen this movie before. Those who ignore or are in denial will be found wanting. For now those of us who are aware are waiting and watching like wasps guarding the hive. All eyes on the threat and weapons hidden for now.

It's starting. Castro's tweet identifying Trump supporters in his district was the identification of targets. No two ways about it. He crossed a line that ramps everything up, because it can be systematic as opposed to attacking a random wearer of a MAGA hat. From donor's lists and voting logs every Trump supporter can be identified, name and address, across the country.

...and see the project as a satire addressing an issue of great social importance.

What movie, satirical or, otherwise, in the history of cinema, resulted in a landmark achievement in social discourse?

Particularly a $18m budget about gleeful/joyful killings of 'the other'

You make it sound like they're some sort of crazed animal, instead of the thoughtful, caring, humanists that the Left in America really are. Socialists/Communists aren't likely to imprison, starve, or execute fellow comrades (citizens), unless you're talking about that situation in Cambodia, but those leaders were.... Ooops! We can't go there, because to do so would lead to accusations of racism, rather than admit that their instinct to commit wholesale slaughter stemmed from being members of the human race.

I guess it comes down to how profit is defined. Box office bombs allow for write-offs and "creative" bookkkeeping. Then there's grooming future investors with woke productions. Long game/short game.

I'm not going to waste my time looking up examples but Hollywood trotted out a slew of hopeless losers post-9/11, portraying our military response as the real villain. None of these movies ever stood a chance of returning a straightforward profit.

Most of them don't and if handed the implements of their murderous tyranny, they'd recoil in conviction and disgust. No, Leftists prefer to use others to impose their will. I've no doubt at all some LE and military will do as they are told because....paycheck. We need only to look as far back as the aftermath of Katrina to see imported LE and Nat'l Guard doing the will of political tyrants to the innocent.....even elderly. They did it then. They'll do it in the future.
