Confederate flag is the 'American Swastika' and it's 'about damn time' people questioned it, says Quentin Tarantino

Quote
Quentin Tarantino considers the Confederate flag the 'American swastika' - and feels it is 'about damn time' that people questioned its place in the American South.

Tarantino's comment was made during an interview to promote his latest film, The Hateful Eight, which is due to hit the big screen on January 8 in the UK.

The film is set a few years after the American Civil War and it puts the spotlight on strained race relations in the country.

He is scraping the bottom of the irrelevancy barrel.

Perhaps Mr, Q's film should have focused on Lincoln's post-war 'scorched earth' policies executed so dutifully by his generals after Lee's surrender.

He is following in the footsteps of Michael Moore.

But seriously, What is it about becoming a super rich multi-millionaire in the American system, and then becoming a crazy Leftist who hates the American system?

It has become so common and passe' that it is now just stupid.

You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.
Rational fear and anger at vicious murderous Islamic terrorists is the same as irrational antisemitism, according to the Leftists.

Yes.  He's pretty much ruined me for watching anymore of his movies!

The only thing Tarantino ever got right was putting Selma Hayek in a bikini and a python.

I'm glad I never gave this dirtbag a single red-cent of my money...

Our son forced the wife and men to go see the new Star Wars over the holiday.  The last movie I saw before that I think was the first Harry Potter movie.  I detest donating to any of the overpaid, egomaniacal, prejudiced, liberal cry babies who infest Hollyweird. :bs:

If we as conservatives care about the culture, as consumers of entertainment we ought to be discriminating. However, our voices will only be heard by Hollywood marketers if we use our power of the purse. When a film bombs at the box office, movie producers hear that loud and clear.

I haven't been to a movie theatre since "The Passion of the Christ."  Have I missed anything?
