Movie featuring liberal elites hunting red state “deplorables” for sport

[CF DolFan]

Another case of love trumps hate hypocrisy. ESPN has pulled a trailer for Universal Pictures and Blumhouse’s The Hunt – a movie reportedly featuring liberal elites hunting red state “deplorables” for sport. Founder Jason Blum is a notorious Trump-hater who was booed off stage in Israel for unprovokedly bashing Trump.

All I can say is if this was the opposite then heads would roll.

Having just read the description it sounds like the short story written by Richard Connell.  A story which contains violence and murder but doesn’t promote violence and murder.  Without knowing more, I don’t know if this movie keeps with that.  But according to the article the liberals are portrayed as the bad guys and the deplorables are the good guys and win in the end.  So I am doubting the movie is really as much of a liberals promoting violence against Maga as you would like to believe.

I do know that Trump held a campaign rally in El Paso in which he promoted violence against hispanic that inspired the murder to act.

CF, I can't tell based on your post, but do you agree with this trailer being pulled?

The last purge movie was the opposite, and probably the worst movie I've ever seen.  This doesn't sound any better.

I don't care either way. I just think if the shoe were on the other foot that the left would be hysterical. If Clint Eastwood made this movie in reverse you wouldn't just be hearing about it on a message board.

I am pissed that movie about violence is so affectively blamed for what is clearly a gun problem.  Fact is there is way more gun violence in this country.  

Here are the top two things that makes the USA different than all other democracies:

1 owning weapons  of war is considered a right
2 health care is considered a privilege

the other countries also have the same movies, video games, immigrants, drug addictes.  Those are not unique.

I just watched the trailer.  There doesn't seem to be anything even remotely political about any of it.  It looks like The Most Dangerous Game to me. 

I haven't seen the movie, of course.

Anything to do with hunting people is probably too sensitive after a mass shooting, so it makes sense to pull the ad, given the current climate, though.

If they “delay” it for a better time.  Good luck finding a release window, when there isn’t a mass shooting.

This country was founded "by the people" with guns and as such will stay that way. It's one of our doctrine. Our forefathers gave up serving the government but for some reason all democrats and liberals can see as a better life is giving up their, and my rights. The government is supposed to work for us with minimal authority. I can't for the life of me understand wanting to be dependent on it. 

We've had guns in households for hundreds of years and it wasn't that long ago we had them at school legally. No one was getting shot or even threatened. We need to ask ourselves what has changed and it isn't more guns.

Read the 29th federalist paper it explains what a well regulated militia is.

What exactly do you consider a weapon of war?

Read the 29th federalist paper it explains what a well regulated militia is.

Read SCOTUS ruling on 2A. Thanks...

Read the 29th federalist paper it explains what a well regulated militia is.

We aren't talking a well regulated militia. We are talking about "the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed". There is more than one part of this sentence. It doesn't say "being necessary to the security of a free State the right of the people is ONLY to keep and bear Arms in order to form a well regulated militia."

^It really doesn't get more simple than that, it doesn't even leave room for a different interpretation.

if the slaughter of elementary school kids gets nothing done legislatively about guns .. nothing will

replace the legislators that are blocking this and try again

There's nothing you can legislatively do about 350 million firearms. Even if you did, those children will then be slaughtered by something else. Nice try, but no dice...
