Movie Artist Who Portrayed Characters Killing Cops Elected Governer

The Terminator, played by Arnold Schwarzenegger, not only shot, but killed not one, but many cops and was elected Governor of California.

Where was the faux outrage from the cops and/or radical RW reactionaries then?

Was it not the same group of RWers who then tossed the idea of changing the Constitution to allow Arnold Schwarzenegger to run for President in the near future?

You do realize that the Terminator was a movie right?....maybe Rightwinger can splain it to ya over drinks or sumptin....:eusa_whistle:

You do realize that Rap is just music right? Maybe del can splain it to ya over drinks or sumptin....:eusa_whistle:

Maybe I can 'Splain it to you that it is a COP OUT...as are you?

*BRING IT BOY*
 
The rapper speaks of a specific REAL cop killer.
Arnie speaks of something very generic....no real cop.
Marc, I do understand your shortcomings on something like this, but....you know what you are, and I expect nothing short of that.

What is even more funny is the rabid neocon whackjobs are making an issue about a recording artist visiting the white house...

wow, I'm a rabid whackjob, oh and a neo con, who knew?:eusa_eh:

Ha!!.....i knew it.....you did not have me fooled Traj......i knew it from your 5,480th post....Damit....your good....:eusa_angel:
 
I say again...Common did not, I repeat...DID NOT, rap or sing about killing cops or the President.

Thus far it hasn't been proven by anyone.

Yet, its been spewed as gospel by the radical RWers everywhere.

Interesting.

Just curious, what do you think this means?

With that happening, why they messing with Saddam?
Burn a Bush cos’ for peace he no push no button
Killing over oil and grease
no weapons of destruction
How can we follow a leader when this a corrupt one
The government’s a g-unit and they might buck young black people
Black people In the urban area one
I hold up a peace sign, but I carry a gun.
Peace, ya’ll.”
 
So you ARE declaring that the rules are different for movies than for music?

So do artists who sing other's songs...what about them? They get to sing about cop killing and president killing all day...if they DIDN'T write it?

Is that how it works?

Why on earth wouldn't the rules be different for movies than music? They are are separate genre's of expression. Every aspect of life has different rules. Otherwise, everything would be identical.

Here's a newsflash for you Marc: Different things are *Gasp* Different!

Do you know what the "RW" philosophy is? or are you just a brainwashed minion??

Give it up already....

Yeah, neocons are as fucked up as the tyrant progressive socialists are on the left that want to rewrite the Bill of Rights and our constitution.

I'm NOT going to stand by while some giddy communists violate OUR/MY Bill of Rights and Constitution.

Many men have died for that document and you will NEVER wipe it away "progressively."

Never in a fucking billion years..

You better follow our Bill of Rights, and if you don't like it - get the fuck out of my country...

Angry much?

How are your rights being violated at the moment?

Try Liberty...

Different word...ONE that you don't understand...but are happy to give up asswipe.

How is your liberty being usurped....

Can you vote? Can you own property? Do you have the right to a lawyer when/if arrested? Can somebody put you in jail, throw away the key, on the say-so of the president? Please, tell me about your liberties being stripped. Take your time...
 
So now you're passing JUDGEMENT on what's in, no other place but, a man's HEART!?!??

WoW!!!!

What's next??!??

BTW, Ice-T now plays a COP, of all things, on da teevee.

Funny that.

And he's married to a white chick. Now THAT is some irony.


Song writers worth their salt will write what they feel, or relate what another feels. Unless you are saying Common is a phony, he meant what he wrote when he wrote it.

hell the guy that wrote Terminator was probably writting from a bad place or time in life.

We all grow up though and common hasn't put out jack in years, so I'd hazard a guess that he doesn't feel the same way any more.

*EXPRESSION...is just that regardless of aural or visual*

But you question it because YOU aren't equipped to deal with it...YOU are an IDIOT for ever writing what you have here.

MARC? When are you gonna ADMIT that YOU are outclassed here?
 
RWers are drowning in a sea of Obama success after success and they don't know how to deal with it to save themselves, so instead of understanding/admitting to the fact that they are on the losing team...they LURCH from false claim to false claim, from one faux outrage to another, seeking for something...ANYTHING to attempt to knock Obama down.

Instead what happens....? His poll numbers SOAR...and continue to soar!

And Obama hasn't even BEGUN to campaign as yet.

The Republicans are toast I say...TOAST!!!

:lol:

Obama never stopped campaigning. :eusa_whistle:
 
The movie thing aside, the weakest argument of this whole mess is the "you have to look at the totality of his work" bullshit.

Did any of the lefty bedwetters look at the "totality of the work" of people like Trent Lott or Bob Packwood, before they pilloried them and drove them from office?

Fucking phony baloney dickweeds.

Ahhhh....more RW false equivalencies.

Your Honor...the subject would like us to EQUATE Politicians WITH Entertainers.

I rest my case!

Sort of like equating movies with music.

You Rest NOTHING. Why didn't you just say I ADMIT...I have nothing and CAPITULATE?
 
With Liberty...comes responsibilty.

Which is the problem. People don't want to be accountable for their words, thoughts, deeds, desires. They to take absolutely no responsibility, yet expect respect that comes only with working hard to fulfill our responsibilities.

So tell us then...what's the difference betwixt the two?
 
It was on 3 Jun 1953, since you ask.

Yeah, but it's fiction....:cool:

No, the suicide actually happened. The family in the song might be fictional, but the event you asked is history.

Want to try again?

Maybe you want to try again...:cool: I've even bolded the relevent parts for you...now say thank you.

"The song's popularity proved so enduring that in 1976, nine years after its release, Warner Bros. commissioned author Herman Raucher to adapt it into a novel and screenplay, Ode to Billy Joe. The poster's tagline, which treats the film as being based on actual events and even gives a date of death for Billy (June 3, 1953), led many to believe that the song was based on actual events.[3] In Raucher's novel and screenplay, Billy Joe kills himself after a drunken homosexual experience, and the object thrown from the bridge is the narrator's ragdoll."

Oh, that proves it, Wikipedia says it. Except it also says this.

Questions arose among the listeners: what did Billie Joe and his girlfriend throw off the Tallahatchie Bridge, and why did Billie Joe commit suicide? One possible interpretation is that the narrator had an abortion, and what she and Billie Joe throw off the bridge is the aborted baby, after which Billie Joe kills himself out of remorse.
When Herman Raucher met Gentry in preparation for writing a novel and screenplay based on the song, she confessed that she had no idea why Billie Joe killed himself.[3] Gentry has, however, commented on the song, saying that its real theme was indifference:[4]

Bobbie Gentry also stated that the song was based on a real event.

1) Please supply quote where she says it is based on a real event
2) Your links do nothing to denounce my contention and fail to back up yours
3) Find the suicide that happened on that date, which was you initial smart-arse answer

4) Oh, and please, take your time...:cool:
