[Vanity] Theater Managers Being Threatened By Clinton Operatives for Showing Hillary's America
Vanity | August 18, 2016 | Swordmaker

Posted on 08/18/2016 6:53:29 PM PDT by Swordmaker

Last night (August 17, 2016) a friend of mine want to take some friend to see "Hillary's America — The Secret History of the Democratic Party," the newest documentary film by Dinesh D'Souza. It had been showing at quite a few theaters locally but he suddenly could not find any theaters showing it near Modesto, Stockton or Lodi. He asked me to see if I could find where it was showing.

I tried Sacramento. None. . . not a single theater in a city with a metropolitan population over over 1.5 million was showing that film, when just last week there were about a dozen screens with it. I expanded my search area.

The closest theater showing the movie was in El Dorado Hills, the Regal Eldorado Hills Stadium 16, almost 60 miles away from Lodi and 70 miles from Stockton. There was another in Roseville, which was 80 miles away from Lodi. The El Dorado Hills theater listed showings for the rest of the week.

When my friend and his group got there, my friend ran into the manager of the theater and thanked him for showing the film. The manager informed him that this showing was going to be the last showing because that afternoon a group of people had come in and told him that if showed it beyond today, they were going to see that the Projectionist's Union was going to pull his projection staff and his theater was going to be sued for whatever they could think of to sue him for. He said, I just work for the chain and their policy is if we are threatened to pull the film and be done with it. I don't have the resources to fight, much as I want to. He further said, the grapevine among theaters is they've been doing it where ever "Hillary's America" is showing, starting in the big theaters in the cities and working outward to the outlying areas. That's why none of the theaters have it anymore! None of the theaters are willing to stand up to them because they all have union projectionists and they do not want a lawsuit they'd have to defend!

Freepers, look around your area. Is Dinesh D'Souza's "Hillary's America" showing in your area, or has it suddenly just disappeared? If it is still showing, see it before the Hillary thugs intimidate the theaters into pulling it from their line up.

Managers should be instructed to not even meet with these thuugs and ignore written correspondence.

projectionists ? they still use reels ?

Some places do, but even if it's digital, someone has to manage the showing. The Union guy does that. My buddy asked the theater manager the same question. It's just like truck drivers are still called "Teamsters" even though there's no team of horses or mules to drive. In the theater, at least they are still "projecting" the image, regardless of how it's carried. They never called them "reelers." LOL. I as a projectionist when I was in college, way back when. It was the job I had to earn money to pay for personal incidentals on my full ride scholarship.

If she manages to steal the election, there will be Brown Shirts everywhere. She’d have her own enforcers and would loose the hounds from Hell upon her enemies.

I'd drop the "r" from the word "Shirts". . . but that's just me.

And add “blood red”. That’s not just me, either.

thank you. I understand.

Back to the point of this - in our area, the film ( yikes, I called it “film”) is booked through 8/24 in 3 Theaters .
2 will have 3 showings a day and 1 will have 4.

Pretty sad considering this looks like it represents all of Illinois

Names, Addresses etc

Otherwise it is kooks passing themselves off

Couple of Oath Keepers at the Theaters when the threatening thugs show up might be able to extract information

Sorry, I don’t get intimidated by nameless faceless antagonists ... probably even less if they show up in person, an attitude that may have cost me a marriage but other than that it has served me well throughout my life.
Make them known, identified, located and verified. The process of verification will reveal pretty much everything you need to know.

(PS From my Divorce I learned, Don’t threaten folks delivering legal papers, no matter how surly, they are just delivering papers... but they keep notes that may be admissible and that can get expensive ie mind your temper no matter the situation, always think it is a set up, remember who hired them)

Just like Amerigeddon. Just ordered a copy on DVD from Alex Jones. Had to do the same for the Atlas Shrugged series and other movies that the chains refuse to show. Of course I haven’t spent much with them over the last 5-6 years (only Lone Survivor), otherwise zilch.

I checked the local AMC 20 and it had one showing today, Thurs 8/18 at 2:27 pm and it’s not showing at all Sat or Sun. It’s only been out 1 month.

If Trump had threatened a theater would it make the front page of the New York Times? Bet on it. Hope Hannity see this... WILL HILLARY DISAVOW THESE THUGS. ASK HER CHRIS MATTHEWS... ASK HER MORNING JOE.

The Hillary brown shirts are bent on creating a Master Race. The litany of threats sound a lot like the cringe-inducing era of 1940’s-Europe. One does not dare disagree w/ them....or else.

what’s next——book-burning?

Midnight trains to reeducation camp from which one never returns?

If the Democrats manage to steal this election for Hillary, I would say the re-education camps. Where her enemies and perceived enemies will come in through the gate and go out through the chimney. We members of this forum, legitimate gun owners, Whites, Christians, Tea Party members, Conservatives, Jews all fall in the category of her enemies and will be in the first group to be exterminated. After she consolidates her power,she will go after those whom she perceives to be a threat to her. These will include members of her outer group that helped bring her into power. Next, she will go after members of her inner group she considers to be a threat. To learn more, study the History of Stalin's reign of terror.
