Team America was shown in theaters when George Bush was president.. No problems in any theaters. Does it getting pulled mean Obama is insulted by the film??? THIS PISSES ME OFF!!!!!!!!!

They would have stopped Back to The Future, because it had Libyan terrorists.
Ya’ll remember the death threats when “Book of Mormon” was the toast of the town. The film and theater crowd were sooooo brave, weren’t they?
Time to give Paramount some heat.
