So, Libs, what do you think of that? Banning a piece of historical fiction in the form of film...Please. This is Revisionist history at its best. Slippery slope in full effect.

don't have time to view, are you serious? Seriously?

Yes, I am serious. Question is how serious is the writer of the NY Post article. Or is this a shock piece?
But, yeah, he is basically calling for the movie to be relegated to a "museum". bump

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.

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.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 68863396


I'll support their right to remove the merchandise like the little dweebs they are, and they should support my right to organize as much of a boycott against them. That's MY libertarian right, freedom of speech, freedom of association, etc. etc.

Your description of libertarianism is retarded.

It's on youtube isn't it?

Anyway, of Obama says it's banned, in 18 months Obama won't be in office and then nobody will enforce such a stupid ban.

Patience, and planning.

I cannot believe how relentless the attack has now become. From the article:

The fire came a week after a white gunman entered an historic African-American church in neighboring South Carolina and killed nine people during a Bible study session....

Williams told the local Charlotte Observer newspaper that investigators were attempting to establish if the fire was set as a hate crime.

Looks like they're on a mission to rewrite history, the new official version will say how evil the South was and how North had to liberate the poor black slaves from white oppressors, who used confederate flag as a symbol of hatred and racism.

History of WW2 was similarly rewritten, mainly the causes that led to the invasion on Poland.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 69470669


But everyone knows of the current evil jew-bastards, and I never hated them until I did my fair share of research.

I support the confederate flag. It should replace the current one, IMHO!
