"Ebony and ivory ... "

After seeing the new Quentin Tarantino movie "Django Unchained," a number of moviegoers issued violent and racist tweets expressing a desire to kill white people, Twitchy reported Sunday.
"Seeing Django reignited my desire to kill white people," said "Flex."
The tweet had been deleted, but many more were available.
"After watching Django, all I wanna do is shoot white people," another person said.
"We need a modern dy django to kill some white people (sic)," tweeted another

Ray Charles could have seen this coming.
but TV and Hollyweird and advertisement have no effect on people, right?
Some Freepers think works of art like this have no affect on peoples behavior.
Just exactly what is the storyline on that movie?
When I saw Vanishing Point all I wanted to do is race my engine in my Pinto when I left the theater........
>> Well I still will stand up and say calling for the killing of anyone is NEVER OK in my book.
That’s not exactly true. I haven’t seen Django yet, but I have seen Inglorious Basterds. It was a violent bloodlust revenge flick against the Nazis ... who had it coming. There was certainly no outcry about that one. My understanding is that this is similar, just with slaveholders rather than Nazis.
Revenge flicks are a solid sub-genre ... and, to be honest, I like most of them. Taken, Man on Fire, Death Wish, Dirty Harry, Harry Brown, the last 8-hours of 24, etc.
The problem isn’t the movie. Its cultural. There is a lot of misdirected hatred out there, particularly from liberals.

With schools and prime time TV and movies encouraging kids into sex and drugs and crap, I guess racial violence was the next step.
These folks have apparently forgotten that they comprise around 12 to 15% of the total population. They also ignore the fact that white people are armed and disposed to DEFEND tbemselves with those firearms now flying out of the gun shows and shops here.
And ANOTHER THING:
The fact is that the modern descendants of slaves brought here in chains in admittedly miserable, soul-gutting conditions now calling for reparations need to remember something:
They should not only be glad to be in America, they should be glad to be ANYWHERE!
Had their ancestors NOT been brought OUT of Africa – many by Muslim slave raiders —the blood of those ancestors would have run into the earth over there several centuries ago, victims of the OTHER black tribes that captured them in one of the interminable tribal conflicts STILL ravaging that sad continent and these modern day would-be “plaintiffs” would not even exist.
And I would remind you that slavery is STILL practiced in parts of Africa (mainly by – American BLACK muslims LISTEN UP!! — MUSLIMS) and Asia today. How ironic that disgruntled American blacks are embracing a system that participated mightily in their initial bondage – and would, if Islam takes root here, probably put any who cling to their Christianity back INTO BONDAGE – or to the sword. In fact, as the majority of muslims consider black folks as “sub-human”, many of you black muzzies will get the axe.
95% of the African slaves who were transported across the Atlantic went to South and Central America, mainly to Portuguese, Spanish and French possessions, and that less than 5% of the slaves who crossed the Atlantic went to the United States, it was remarkable that the vast majority of academic research, films, books and articles concerning the slave trade concentrated only on the American involvement, as though slavery was a uniquely American aberration.
And should the great-great-great grandchildren of SLAVE OWNING BLACKS also be subject to PAYING these reparations? If so, how do we find THEM?
And I have traced MY family back to the SLAVS. Although the term looks to be related to “slave”, depending on your source, it either means “glory” or “worshipper.” But my family research indicates that many of my of my ancestors LIVED lives of virtual slavery to some despot or other. Do I qualify for reparations? From whom?? And it begs a question: Are most of us now living here headed into a modern form of that servitude? But that’s a topic for another discussion.
The official US Census of 1830 lists 3,775 free blacks who owned 12,740 black slaves. Furthermore, the story outlines the history of slavery here, and the first slave owner, the Father of American slavery, was Mr. Anthony Johnson, of Northampton, Virginia. His slave was John Casor, the first slave for life. Both were black Africans. The story is very readable, and outlines cases of free black women owning their husbands, free black parents selling their children into slavery to white owners, and absentee free black slave owners, who leased their slaves to plantation owners.
-”Selling Poor Steven”, American Heritage Magazine, Feb/Mar 1993 (Vol. 441) p 90
Of course, a full telling of Black History would not be complete without a recitation of the origin of slavery in the Virginia colony:
Virginia, Guide to The Old Dominion, WPA Writers’ Program, Oxford University Press, NY, 1940, p. 378
A few more salient points on the subject:
Until the US declared independence, the Colonies were REQUIRED by the King of England to embrace slavery.
The Northwest Ordinance (1789) prohibited slavery in federal territories.
A law prohibiting the importation of slaves into the US became effective in 1808.
Beginning in 1820, the Democratic Congress started passing laws allowing and encouraging slavery.
It was only after the Republican Party (many of whom were southern Blacks) was formed some 40 years later that the anti-slavery movement was able to move forward.
And the holier-than-thou Northern liberals are strangely silent on recent archeological evidence from NEW YORK CITY clearly tracing the financing of the slave trade to NORTHERN BUSINESSMEN!!
At the height of his remarkable boxing career, Muhammad Ali (born Cassius Clay), once declared, “I’m glad my great-grandpa got on that boat.”
And speaking of ancestors, my paternal grandmother’s daddy joined with the 80th Ohio Volunteer Infantry early in the War Between the States (re-upped twice) and fought on the Union side at Chickamauga, Vicksburg, Jackson then joined up with Sherman for that infamous march to the sea through Georgia. My wife’s great grandpappy ALSO fought for the Union. While I revere the memory of my ancestors, inasmuch as that conflict was less about slavery than it was the economic exploitation and abuse of the South by the North, I fear they MAY have been on the wrong side.
Author Robert Hitt Neill tells of attending a Tennessee Mountain Writer’s Conference years ago with several other authors. Among them was Alex Hailey, celebrated author of “Roots.” Watching a TV news show, a group of them watched a demonstration in a Southern state against the “Rebel” flag incorporated into that state’s flag. The very next report covered a famine in Africa. Graphic images showed dead bodies, starving children with distended tummies and runny noses and dying people covered with flies, too weak to brush them away.
Mr. Hailey intoned in a low, serious voice, “Every time an American black sees a story like that, they should find a Confederate flag and kiss it.” He then pointed to the TV screen and continued, “Because these would be me and my descendants, except for American slavery. I thank God that my family and I are here instead of there.”
Next problem!

I think its similar to Inglorious Basterds ... which was a revenge flick wherein Jewish soldiers hunted, tortured, killed and scalped Nazis, and eventually assassinated Hitler.
My understanding is that this has a similar theme ... freed slave looking for his wife and taking revenge on slaveholders. Haven’t seen it, though, so I could be wrong.

So sick and sad...where is the OUTCRY from the left against this.
The outcry will be when they and their family members are included in the murders. They will be shocked that they will be included in that humber because they are WHITE - no sympathy for the bleeding heart liberals.
Criminals (feeling) Unchained by an idiotic Hollywood movie.
Guess they’re not noticing most citizens are arming themselves.
Echoes of Zimbabwe.
"Ebony and ivory ... "
They’re too busy getting orgasms from “nappy headed hos” and “sluts” and Donovan McNabb references to deal with this.
and last year Spielberg’s Lincoln = Obama.
That was crystal clear to me when I saw the film (which I regret seeing but from a pure movie point of view it was interesting) but people who I shared this with told me I was nuts.
When I saw Vanishing Point all I wanted to do is race my engine in my Pinto when I left the theater........
I’ve wanted a 69 Charger every since I saw that movie!
I bet if the same movie was released in 1975 as a spahgetti/schlock western for 100K with no-named actors blowing away no-name euro-actors and twice the amount of n-words in the script, no one would have raised an eyebrow on either side. You can say that for pretty much all of his movies. The same movie is released in 2012 with a modern a-movie budget, modern special effects, famous idiot actors, and modern 24 hour mass media and it’s a big deal on all sides. I suppose it’s good for publicity, if nothing else.

Blacks are too busy killin’ each other to get to whitey.
In before the inevitable post, “It’s just a movie. Don’t go to see it, or just turn the channel” comment.
Uh, huh.
Corporations spend billions and billions of dollars on make believe advertising because it has absolutely no effect.
Did they really cut out the scenes of the queer and amish lynchin’s ? I heard they did
And to think, Cleavon Little was in both Vanishing Point and Blazing Saddles. The movie that would set the USA on fire if it was released today.

Actually, its probably inevitable; its just what was needed to reactivate their innate genocide gene.

Mariah Carey wrote the song “Hero” from this. She was a regular passenger on the LIRR.
Just another reason the Socialists in Sodom on the Potomac will not get my guns. We have a right to defend ourselves from the Obama NAACP-Black Panther hoodlums.

Can’t have Martial Law gun confiscation without them. Everybody has a part to play in the NWO.
I’m gonna claim Limbaugh-style BS on these. Demonstrating absurdity by being absurd, IMO.
Feelin's mutual, Flex.
“I’ve wanted a 69 Charger every since I saw that movie!”
I do believe it was a 1970 Challenger in the movie. Almost bought one way back when for $1500, but I rejected it because it was purple with a white vinyl top...
(kicking myself repeatedly)
My understanding is that this has a similar theme ... freed slave looking for his wife and taking revenge on slaveholders. Haven’t seen it, though, so I could be wrong.
And Kill Bill, as well as Death Proof. Revenge movies are a genre that Tarantino seems to specialize in.
I'd like to see some concrete evidence that all these tweets aren't just a bunch of moviegoers spoofing Jamie Foxx's rather silly comment about getting to kill white people.
Let me correct myself before the haters jump in:
“I’ve wanted a 69 Charger every since I saw that movie!”
I meant to say 69 challenger.

I don’t think smash mouth blacks would ultimately enjoy a real game of cowboys and racists.
I didn’t get the feeling those commenters were bright enough to spoof anything. I have little doubt that they’re degenerates. For it, they have a solid chance of dying in prison. But, I blame them ... not Django.
Haven’t seen Kill Bill. Didn’t much care for Death Proof, though.

“Moviegoers tweet desire to kill white people after seeing ‘Django Unchained’ “
1. if a white person said this, Al Sharpton would be on every major news channel screaming for “justice.”
2. interesting how violence is prevalent in the movie, yet Hollywood claims it is not responsible for our societal trend to violence.
3. used to like Jamie Foxx’s and Leonardo di Caprio’s movies, but not any more. Jamie Foxx is the same one who proclaimed Obummer as their lord and savior. He’s on a quick path to hades...
But! They will not turn in their guns, because they never registered them.................., or will be issued new ones when Zero starts his purge.
This is by intent.
I meant to say 69 challenger.
That's almost as bad as a lose/loose grammatical error.
/s
To the animals who tweeted this stuff: Bring it on! We’s ready fo’ y’all.
After I was the movie... I tried to get my then blonde girl friend to ride a motorcycle naked... And I believe the car was a Challenger...With that awesome pistol grip shifter...
If it was released in 1975 it would have been a "Blacksploitation" flick.
Yet, Communists in Hollywood deny that there movies ever lead to violence. Yeah. Sure.
Dozens of innocent whites will be murdered by vengeful blacks as a direct result of this movie. Just wait. But the Corrupt Liberal Media will sanitize any racial motives, bury the stories and refuse to connect the dots.
There were 14 whites murdered in the month of May, 2012 alone in the USA after the media frenzy over the Trayvon Martin story created a National Lynch Mob to get George Zimmerman.

When I see posts such as yours I wish we had a like button around here! :)
I had a Pinto, it was my first new car. That car really sucked...it was also my last American made car.
And when is senator dianne frankenswine from californistan going to push for a bill to ban violent films?
Oh yeah, never.
