We all made the mistake in believing Hollywood was at least civilized when the emails were released.

But, when will it return to a tone that doesn't send Americans into the streets with guns? I think you all should be ashamed of yourselves.

CLINT Eastwood’s latest movie (click here) American Sniper may be a hot Oscar contender and a US box office hit but it has divided Hollywood....

...But some stars have taken issue with its tone, which they say glorifies war.
Seth Rogen was one of the first to attack the film, tweeting: “American Sniper kind of reminds me of the movie that’s showing in the third act of Inglorious Basterds.”

Rogen’s reference is to a Nazi propaganda film in Quentin Tarantino’s Inglourious Basterds where a German sniper kills Allied soldiers from a clock tower....

You are acting like children in a sandbox. Real threats have occurred to others because movie stars are trying to build the number of followers they have on Twitter. 

Rob Lowe? I suppose the subscribers will increase to "Direct TV?" Right? Direct TV is expensive and quite frankly I find their commercials insulting and hideous. The Macho Man Rob Lowe is a jackass. 

...Documentary-maker Michael Moore tweeted that snipers were “cowards” and that invaders were “worse”. Moore, who was famously booed by Oscar attendees in his 2003 acceptance speech for denouncing the Iraq War, later tried to claim he hadn’t been referring to the subject of Eastwood’s film.
Even so, he got an angry response from fans of the film, including actor Rob Lowe and former Republican presidential nominee Newt Gingrich....

So, kicking Michael Moore in the ass is becoming a real popular statement. He has had innumerable threats and it was not about kicking ass. Every one of you should be ashamed and need to put the smartphones down for at least a month. Google should suspend the lot of you for at least that long. 

This film was produced by Clint Eastwood, not Kid Rock, and Eastwood had nothing but kindness for Moore and Bill Maher. I guess it takes a real man to realize the dangers that lie in the real world when Hollywood is out of control with desperate words for Twitter followers.

Honestly. It isn't embarrassing enough to actually realize there are adults in the real world in America that would actually tweet a death threat to someone. They should all be facing legal action. 

There is a very high level of hate in the country to have so many people sparked into action by negative comments by celebrities. The only reason the right wing is immune to such hate and outspoken in 'kick ass' attitudes is because the left are adverse to guns, war and killing. It isn't because they are cowards, it is because the Left Political Wing believes in defense of the USA and not the illegal invasion of other countries.

Every celebrity should take themselves very seriously as they are the people that contributed to the hate leveled at their peers.  Part of what is contributing to all this in the twitter-verse is desperate political attitudes. Death threats aren't going to solve the politics of the USA, but, will only make it worse.

Michael Moore and Bill Maher speak for a lot of people on the Left in American politics. They didn't come out and threaten to kick ass or speak a scenario that leads to death threats. They speak about the politics of people that value life and the quality of life for all Americans. Both these men also help with the very expensive stage of politics since Citizens United. 

The Left believes in freedom far more than the right does. The people that gravitate to Left Wing politics see the world without violence, without guns and without death threats. They love their families and they love the values their children adhere to because of their upbringing in a left sphere world of peace. 

The word sniper is a very loaded word. It brings up all connotations, but, the least of those connotations is about the role of a sniper at war with the USA. One might pay attention to the fact Mr. Chris Kyle was killed by a man known to have profound PTSD. (click here) 

It is not unusual for soldiers afflicted with that disorder to want to be at war then return to a 'normal' life with their families. The repeated deployments became a preferred destiny to some. If there was anything I wish, it is to erase all those haunting memories of our soldiers and prevent their own demise at their own hand. The causalities of the wayward war into Iraq is continuing within our homeland. Twenty-two deaths per day due to the lousy war that lasted longer than any other war in American history.

Those 22 daily deaths is why President Obama stated everyone needs to be aware of the psychological haunts our soldiers and their potential to harm themselves. Hopefully, the recent legislation will help and soon. 

But, this mess Hollywood creates for attention to draw in more fans is completely disrespectful of the soldiers that have died and are still dying for this country.

But, the word sniper is loaded with all kinds of problems. Would Americans call the snipers in Libya that killed so many in Benghazi heroes? The world doesn't see a sniper in the same light of those that hail Eastwood's film as a tribute to greatness within our military. The idea a single man can make or break a military operation is rather unsettling actually. Quite frankly, the American snipers were mostly invisible and this film has brought them into focus now. And the only things the actors and filmmakers have to worry about is a golden statue for their efforts and the added receipts that might bring. The impact of the film reaches far beyond that.

Before I get preachy and take over the task of the holy men of the right wing, I'll leave this thought. "How is it the political right wing feels their first amendment rights include death threats, which are oppression, while they deny freedom of speech to the political left wing?"
