Fact-checkers are taking aim at American Sniper

[JakeStarkey]

Sunni Man wrote [earlier], "Sure thing Fake Jake........ " and quoted only the following below, because he was owned above. Yet again.

JAKESTARKEY SAID: ↑It was set to see how closely you were reading. You avoided the trap, which is unusual for you. So sad, too bad, so had. Again.

You are concrete thinker, Sunni Man, that will never change.

Sure thing Fake Jake....

SM once again only posts a partial line, the one above from the whole string because he is afraid to post full strings now, as well he should be.

 

[Luddly Neddite]

Several important falsehoods have been documented regarding the popular film American Sniper. Some links fact-checking the falsehood-ridden movies are here. Conservatives are likely not to read these fact-checks because it hurts their sensibilities as they want everything portrayed in the movie to be true.:

American Sniper The True Story of Chris Kyle
American Sniper fact vs. fiction How accurate is the Chris Kyle movie

Most RWs believe its factual and don't want to know any different.

Y'know, I'm against Bush's wars, but the hysteria against this movie is getting a little much.

Fact-checking a movie is histeria?

Yes. Hysteria. A movie bucks the liberal Hollywood trend and everyone--every liberal goes completely out of their minds. Last time I checked, nobody fact checked the Terminator movies.

Curious as to what country you are from Fake Jake?

Because your written english and sentence structure is remedial at best. .......

One can only take so much stupidity and bad grammar each day. I'll be happy to share the Visine with you.

I love Hollywood types looking for facts. In Shawshank Redemption the character Red is black. Morgan Freeman is Irish black…… and that's a fact.

i missed where those claimed to be based on real events...

not that i don't remember the nuclear holocaust of August 29th, 1997 and the subsequent war against the machines of the self-aware Skynet, but I don't recall the ' based on a true story' in the into

You are reading closely. You almost passed this time, but then you still have not learned how to spell English. That's twice now.

 

[Sunni Man]

Hands down, Fake Jake is about the stupidest fucktard on the board. ......

 

[Avorysuds]

I watched this movie and all I gotta say is it was waaaaay to geared towards white trash fools. I don't know why the movie was made and I don't know why some considered it to be so good. 911 was so horrible we had to send a sniper over to kill your children....?? Really?!?!?!

What gets me here is that nobody on this board understands sarcasm.

Blackhawk Down was based on a true story, and I don't remember anyone critiquing one of the biggest international failures of the Clinton administration either. Lots of Football movies and war movies were based on actual events too. But it's this one that gets the most critique.

Someone who voted for John Kerry for President thinks these are "important falsehoods?" Wow.

Prolly because this movie is aimed at glorifying stupid people who support other stupid people killing innocent people. After reading the fact sheet thingy I'm happy that almost everything I hated about the movie was made up by a Hollywood writer. I especially hated the audience when I was there, certain scenes got predictable reactions, like the child with the grenade, written into the story to appeal to idiots. It was fake, someone thought "I bet morons would LOVE this idea that a realz american has to kill this child to save other Americans!!!" And they guessed correct.


The obsession with re-writing this mans life to make him appeal likable when in reality he was a dumb animal who admitted he enjoyed killing people. A good lil christian!

 

[hipeter924]

They never did a fact check on Pearl Harbor, and the change of 'very many American lives have been lost' to 'over three thousand' to compare 9/11 to WW2. So this 'startling revelation' reeks of partisanship for a political point, considering the inaccuracies in other films.

That's because fox gave the movie millions of dollars worth of free advertising. If that wouldn't have happened, there wouldn't be such a discussion now.

There IS NO SUCH THING as "histeria"!!! Dummy! So much for your credibility!
"Hysteria"! 6 words and you can't even see the little red dotted line!
Talk about idiots!..."Y..know!!! Against Bush's wars?

Dumb f...k!
Tell that to these f...king Democrats !
You seem to forget Clinton signed the 1998 Liberation of Iraq!
the Liberation of Iraq by signing the 1998 Liberation of Iraq, or the Congress passes Resolution of 2002 (Public law 107-243, 116 Stat. 1497-1502)
"Authorization for Use of Military Force Against Iraq " "Iraq Liberation Act of 1998 is a United States Congressional statement of policy calling .
"It should be the policy of the United States to support efforts to remove the regime headed by Saddam Hussein from power in Iraq and to promote the emergence of a democratic government to replace that regime."

On December 16, 1998, President Bill Clinton mandated Operation Desert Fox, a major four-day bombing campaign on Iraqi targets.
Then in 2001 with 9/11 and anthrax attacks, it was agreed upon by all these Democrats that:

and these democrats SUPPORTED and encouraged the Liberation!!!
"..deny Iraq the capacity to develop WMD".Bill Clinton,1998
"..most brutal dictators of Century", Biden,1998
"Iraq compliance with Resolution 687 becomes shell game"..Daschle 1998
"He will use those WMDs again,as he has ten times since 1983" ..Berger Clinton Ntl. Secur. Advr 1998
"posed by Iraq's refusal to end its WMD programs" Levin 1998
"Saddam has ignored the mandate of the UN and is building WMDs and the means to deliver.." Levin 2002
"Saddam has been engaged in development of WMDs which is a threat.."Pelosi 1998
"Hussein has chosen to spend his money on building WMDS.."Albright 1999
"Saddam to refine delivery systems, that will threaten the US..."Graham 2001
"Compelling evidence Saddam has WMDs production storage capacity.." Graham 2002
"Iraq's search for WMDs ...will continue as long as Saddam's in power"..Gore 2002
"Saddam retains stockpiles of WMDS.."Byrd 2002
"..give President authority to use force..to disarm Saddam because..threat our security"..Kerry 2002
"Without a question, we need to disarm Saddam. He is a brutal, murderous dictator, leading an
oppressive regime .... to his continued deceit and his consistent grasp for weapons of mass destruction
.... So the threat of Saddam Hussein with weapons of mass destruction is real ...."Kerry , Jan. 23. 2003
"..Unmistakable evidence Saddam developing nuclear weapons next 5 years.."Rockefeller 2002
"Violated over 11 years every UN resolution demanding disarming WMDs.."Waxman 2002
"He's given aid,comfort & sanctuary to al Qaeda members..and keep developing WMDs"..Hillary 2002
“So it is with conviction that I support this resolution as being in the best interest of our nation. A vote for it is
not a vote to rush to war. It is a vote that puts awesome responsibility in the hands of our president.”
Hillary Clinton on October 2, 2002:
Every one of those Democrats PUSHED and agreed...SADDAM had to go!
You don't starve 576,000 children if you don't have WMDs and that's what Saddam allowed to happen...dumb F...K!
GEEZ I just can't believe idiots like you but it makes sense if you can't even spell a simple word like "hysteria"!!!

How naive, when the movie is exceeding $200 million at the box office. If it were a movie like oh, Selma, being fact checked, we wouldn't be having this discussion either. In fact, you would be having the same reaction these conservatives are. All of these "based on a true story" movies are bastardized in some way by Hollywood. They are never exactly true to the events they depict.

 

[dilloduck]

The left can't afford any positive influence in this country anymore.

Since when is a sniper a positive influence?

A sniper killed JFK. Was he a positive influence?

Worked out for LBJ
