Lars von Trier, who was banned from Cannes for praising Hitler, was not the only one making unsavoury comments at the film festival.
Peter Fonda, the star of Easy Rider, suggested to Mandrake that he was encouraging his grandchildren to shoot President Barack Obama.
Im training my grandchildren to use long-range rifles, said the actor, 71. For what purpose? Well, Im not going to say the words 'Barack Obama, but
He added, enigmatically: Its more of a thought process than an actuality, but we are heading for a major conflict between the haves and the have nots. I came here many years ago with a biker movie and we stopped a war. Now, its about starting the world.
I prefer to not to use the words, 'lets stop something. I prefer to say, 'lets start something, lets start the world.
Theres no room any more for a cissy and, like I said, dont forget that Ive got grandsons who Ive trained with long-distance rifles. We have to run like mofos to change this world.

If the Won is losing Hollyweird, that’s hugh and series!
Jack stole it for a brief time, but he won an Oscar for his performance. That’s the movie that made him a *star*.
Hopper had more talent in his little finger than Fonda ever hoped to have.
As far as Fonda’s choices of movies he made...well, they are what they are. Trash.
And, that’s how I will always remember him
You’re a sweetie. ;o)
Well, he sat in a chair and mumbled a lot at the end...lol...I liked the movie though. A very good follow-up to a good movie.
I never knew Peter Fonda was a lefty but he sure sounds like it here. He may have already sacrificed his grand kids to some extent with his comments. There’s a good chance the SS will come have a little talk with them and they will all be on a watch list of sorts for the rest of their lives.
Reading what Fonda actually said he sounds more Tea Party than any other political stripe. Now I don’t know squat about the guy politically, just another Hollywood’er to me... and maybe he is left of Castro ..but he seems to be concerned when the have nots come for his stuff and his life and family because he is a ‘have’. He also says he is angry at Obama for letting foreign boots on American soil telling US military (Coast Guard) and Government telling the citizens of America what they can and cannot do. Doesn’t sound left to me....sounds more Tea Party ...Libertarian... Ron Paulite... to me...maybe he is not so leftie afterall. Just saying!
He says that the Obama administration and all government is corrupt, hey I have been saying that for years and I am considered far right.
“we are heading for a major conflict between the haves and the have nots”
I sent an email to President Obama saying, You are a f traitor, using those words Youre a traitor, you allowed foreign boots on our soil telling our military in this case the coastguard what they can and could not do, and telling us, the citizens of the United States, what we could or could not do.
The film also comes out swinging against President Obama, repeatedly stating he is no better than George W. Bush and even implying at one point that his administration and all government is corrupt.
All the Fondas were Lefties. Peter Fonda coming to the attention of the SS? Nah. They’ll just put him down as some old hippy talking a lot of bs.
