"Stolen Honor" Showing Canceled Due to Threats to Theatre
Self

Posted on 10/19/2004 4:46:44 PM PDT by Scarpetta

I just came from the Baederwood Theatre in Abington, PA where "Stolen Honor" was to be shown to an expected full-house. Upon arrival I was told that the theatre canceled the show due to called in threats of violence.

There were about 100 people milling around outside the theatre, mostly Bush supporters, when I arrived. The Bushies were rightly indignant that we couldn't see the film and the sKerry supporters were almost gleeful in their posturing.

One "vet for Kerry" was getting in the faces of many of the Bush supporters, and had to be separated by the police more than once. There were three television news crews recording the skirmishes between the two camps, and reporters jotting down their stories.

The filmmaker, Carlton Sherwood, was there and gave on-camera interviews. The reporters also took about a dozen interviews from both sides of the fence.

There was about a dozen "Vets For Kerry" there, most of them wearing uniforms. I noticed the cops making faces to them as if to say "aren't these Bush supporters a bunch of wankers?" There was one young man (about 19) holding a sign "jingoism doesn't work." Talk about a wanker.

The "Stolen Honor" people handed out DVDs and videos to anyone who wanted one.

This will be a big story on the local news tonight because of all of the heated arguments captured on film. For all in the Delaware Valley viewing area, Channel 6 News stuck around the longest. I'll post any articles from the local papers tomorrow.

DU was proud of this earlier... called it winning through freedom of speech. Since when are threats and intimidation considered exercising one's freedom of speech?

There is little difference between the Religion of Peace and the Party of Tolerance.

It's official now: Free Speech is not tolerated if you're not in line with the DNC.

Anarchy.
It's reaching scary levels. these are the would be Communists, the would be Nazis that are present in every society. The only thing that keeps them from taking over is the upholding of laws. They are turning that on it's head. The police should have protected the movie goers - not let the terrorists rule the day. Did I say terrorist. Yep. Meant it to. (Terrorism = the systematic use of violence to create a general climate of fear in a population and thereby to bring about a particular political objective. ) isn't threat of violence, especially when it works, terrorism? We are in for a bad time,I'm afraid. These socialists won't go down decently.

That is the time when law enforcement needs to do its job.
As far as I know, no one made threats and attempted to
squelch "free speech" in the case of Fahrenheit 911. If
there were demonstrations, they were peaceful. This is
exactly WHY these people do not have the finesse to be
running this country. We endured the fluke of the Clinton
years, and suffered long with them; now I am sick of them.
They are afraid of the truth.

Oh yeah. None.

To be a Democrat one must learn to like kissing the whip.

I used to think the Republican were just more "grown up" than the Dems, so that's why we didn't cause problems for the lard butt Moore's movie watchers, BUT maybe it is time to question our tactics. Maybe it is time to stop being "wussies" and stand up for what is right and what are our rights. God help us if we let them "steal" this election by these childish tactics.

Did a Yahoo Yellow pages search, and it shows no Baederwood Theatre in Abington, PA. You sure you have the theater's name correct?

Take your pepper spray with you to the movie just in case some Krazy 4 Kerry assaults you.

Read Kenneth Campbell's Excellent Adventure, also called his diary....

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1248687/posts?q=1&&page=101

It seems the good professor met with almost every Communist organization in Europe, while enjoying a kind of private Woodstock. He was in the Marine Reserves when he met with the North Vietnamese and other COMMUNIST groups!
Sound familiar?

A look over at DU shows that they PLAN ongetting ugly about it.
One guy even brags about his MOTHER having bail money ready for him on election night "just in case".
