The movie is too iconic.

It won't be banned.

Re: Now They Want 'Gone With the Wind' Banned
They lose all credibility when they want to ban this movie but not 'Django Unchained'
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 57962801


I don't want Django banned because I am a Libertarian, but I get the point you are making. Liberals want things banned because that is what liberalism is, squashing all opposition, no other voices but theirs get a place in public debate. Essentially eliminating debate. Honestly, they are the biggest racists in wanting to hide true history if you really analyze it. Soon, they'll want to burn the museums down full of the undesirable memorabilia. No different then ISIS freaks.
 Quoting: GuessWho 58211715


If you're a libertarian, than you must support businesses deciding to ban content they don't like. That is a libertarian freedom.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 68863396


False, I do not believe that at all. If you are referring to Amazon,it is being said that the Government made them pull the flags. If you are saying it's up to the producers of the film or whomever owns it whether or not to pull it from the public, I would say that is their right, but an ill informed choice more than likely based on political correctness.
 Quoting: GuessWho 58211715


No I'm not referring to Amazon.com if they government ordered them to. I am referring to people putting pressure on companies to remove items and the company complying. If the pressure is done by non-governmental forces, than it is completely libertarian. This is how a libertarian society would react to things they don't like. If you don't agree with this practice, then you're not a libertarian.

Re: Now They Want 'Gone With the Wind' Banned
Since we are rewriting history, I say we write out of history the whole slave thing. The American Civil War was not about slavery. In fact there was no slavery and anyone who states there was slavery needs to be thrown in jail. Who could believe that anyone could enslave another person? Are we to believe that one or two men on horseback could restrain 200 black men? No in fact, the black men worked in the fields because they wanted to. They were willing and active participants in harvesting crops in the 1800's. The whole civil war myth is just that, a myth.

Now all you black people must get a real job and build this country back up since you have actively torn it down with your african tribal antics and cultural depravity.

We have reeducation camps across this country built just for you. Pull your pants up and get to work.

In today's society you have two choices to take.

1. You either agree with the social justice position that whites are racist and have no right to self identity.

2. You pick the white position that white people have a right to their culture, their values, and a country.

This is what we have come to, you need to pick a side because there is no in-between. You're either for the social justice multicultural agenda or you're not.

Which just reinforces the point that "we" are not the government. It has become a separate entity. I would counter this society you speak of is more of a democratic society where majority rules. We don't live in a libertarian society. What I don't agree with is the author of the New York Post article. I don't believe in destroying things just because a few people disagree with them. There is a higher precedent when you are dealing with historical record. But sure, if you want to get technical freedom is freedom, even to burn down museums, but that sounds like anarchy to me.

Farenheit 451

Fahrenheit 451 is a dystopian novel by Ray Bradbury published in 1953. It is regarded as one of his best works.[3] The novel presents a future American society where books are outlawed and "firemen" burn any that are found.[4] The title refers to the temperature that Bradbury understood to be the autoignition point of paper.[5][6]

The novel has been the subject of interpretations primarily focusing on the historical role of book burning in suppressing dissenting ideas.

Re: Now They Want 'Gone With the Wind' Banned
I wonder if Mr. Lou Lumenick who wrote this article for the rag that is the NY Post realizes that he is promoting the path that leads to the elimination of all of us white people, of which he appears to be one as well? True, the Post is a worthless rag that is barely good enough for starting fires or soaking up dog pee, but still the speed with which this snowball is rolling downhill is a bit unnerving. Perhaps it will be best once this, the only promise that Obomber ever made that he may in fact keep - fundamentally changing America from a white country to a white-free country, is concluded and Barak can then lead his loyal followers against the Hispanics or the Asians or whatever other "enemy" he can conjure up next. Oh, yes I forgot about the Muslims, I wonder how the used-to-be-slaves will fare in that society? A shame I won't be around to watch...
