I find it funny that Hollywood leftists are the ones who’ve been pushing this ideal down our throats with one hand, while simultaneously producing the most brutally vile, “creative content” with the other. Libs love to paint Middle American conservatives as “Gun toting Neo-Cons with a thirst for violence,” yet more often than not, it’s those people who boycott their gratuitous, self-indulgent, crap-fests that they call films. Does anyone here honestly think that “Seung-Hi Choi” went on his Virginia-Tech shooting spree after getting fired up at an NRA rally? His pre-massacre phone-pictures showed him mimicking poses that he’d seen in “Tomb Raider” for crying out loud. Only in the United States could an entity such as Hollywood coin the term “Torture-Porn” for their content one moment, only to condemn a righteous war the next.

The truth is that Hollywood only has a problem with violence when it’s carried out with a distinct sense of right and wrong. Awesome 80’s cartoons like “G.I Joe” cease to exist because they were too “black and white.” Teaching children that the men of our military are “American Heroes” is part of an archaic ideal and apparently dangerous.

As soon as the little tykes hit their mid-teens however, they can look forward to a myriad of films combining the adrenaline rush of murder, with a simultaneous endorphin-release from sexual arousal. It’s totally cool though because we don’t know who the bad guy really is. It’s not a shoot-em-up… It’s a study of humanity, don’t ya know.

Folks, let me just re-iterate something that everyone already knows; When it comes to tyrants, violence is the only answer. Period. We should use this most recent example as a tool to teach our children the Dirty Harry philosophy in that there’s “Nothing wrong with a little shooting… As long as the right people get shot.”

The world is full of bullies, and rather than do our children a disservice by dancing around the truth, we should teach them how to beat these jerks to the punch (literally). When my kid comes home with his first bully problem, I won’t be leaving him ill-prepared for the world by giving him the old sissified, “Well, you need to use your words” speech. I’ll lay it down for him bluntly (as my dad did for me and as all parents should):

“Listen, son. You can go tell your teachers, but they won’t do very much and the kid’s probably just going to bully you even more. The same goes for the school Principal and the PTA. What you need to do, is walk right up to that punk, and punch him in the nose as hard as you possibly can. Now come, let me teach you a couple of take-downs.”

Preaching the wonders of properly-employed use of force to our kids is not only honest… It’s our duty in preparing them for the real world. If you think I’m wrong… Well, you’re probably a pansy, so what do I care?

How did they do it? 

Let’s face it, liberals didn’t take over our schools, the entire American education system by protesting. Sure, they made a lot of noise with their complaining, their picketing, but did that do the trick? Did that turn the tide? Did that transform what was once a learning environment that inspired inquisitiveness and curiosity, into a showplace for materialism – where we once taught respect for our men and women in uniform, rather than offering extra credit for flag burning – where teachers once encouraged independence, rather than reliance – where we once taught the lessons of history, rather than condemning it – where we once instilled responsibility, rather than simply handing out condoms?  How did they change what was once a morally conservative, patriotic institution, proud and respectful of our military, our flag, our constitution, our history and our culture into something that can only be described as Liberals gone wild? 

So, then, how did they do it? 

Let’s think about it. How could a nation that put men on the moon now consistently rank last or near-last in international testing in science and mathematics? How could a school system formerly eager to introduce young minds to Steinbeck, Hemingway, Bradbury and Wells shun those authors and replace them with others deemed more diverse, more controversial, more ‘edgy’?  

What happens to a culture when Michelangelo, Renoir and Magritte are equated and then replaced by Mapplethorpe, Christo and Tunic (Yes, that aptly-named ‘artist’ who convinces multitudes to disrobe in public.)  

What’s going on? What have we done? What have we let be done?  

Anyone who has watched Jay Leno’s Jay Walking segment certainly has seen what’s been done, seen all too clearly the horror of the living dead, the intellectual zombies, hungry, not for brains, but for gadgets, tattoos and pierces and all the while delusional that their addictions are somehow saving Mother Earth from ‘evil corporations’.  I would wager that this righteous generation’s overwhelming need for the latest and greatest, the most up-to-date iThing is creating demand for more chemicals, more petroleum products,  more child labor and human rights abuses than any generation that has come before.  

What has produced this twisted mentality, this skewed mindset? Was it family or Hollywood? Hollywood blames the family, yet consistently offers our children a daily breakfast fortified with all the essential cruel and sadistic acts of violence imaginable, topped with fresh and juicy loveless sex and a heaping spoonful of vulgarity. Just what every growing kid needs. 

Was it always this way? Was Hollywood always in the business of manufacturing garbage? I suddenly recall a scene from one of my favorite movies, Annie Hall. It goes something like this: 

Television producer Rob, played by Tony Roberts is showing Annie Hall and Alvy Singer, played by Diane Keaton and Woody Allen, around the fine homes and neighborhoods of Beverly Hills. 

Annie remarks, “God, it’s so clean out here.” 

Alvy replies, “They don’t throw their garbage away. They make it into television shows.”

Was Hollywood always a sewer pipe, funneling the absolute worst examples of human nature to our theaters, our living rooms and now our gadgets? Of course not. This site is evidence of that. Here, folks are coming together because they are sick and tired of the shift, the sea change of content that Hollywood calls entertainment and what more accurately could be called the super-sizing of violence and smut in our mainstream culture. 

Present an image of sawed-off limbs and a laughing psychopath (with all the best lines), and Hollywood replies, “That’s Entertainment!”  Is it entertainment to present images that should produce gagging rather than profits? Hollywood obviously thinks so. 

Liberals didn’t take over our education system by complaining. They did it by becoming teachers and administrators. 

We want Hollywood to change, do we? Well, I believe, this is our cue.
