US Congressman Loves “American Sniper”

… SO MUCH SO HE MIGHT START A FIGHT

|| By FITSNEWS || U.S. Rep. Jeff Duncan had some tough talk this week for liberal Hollywood filmmaker Michael Moore and Irish actor Liam Neeson.

“If you agree with Michael Moore or Liam Neeson, how about unliking my page?” Duncan wrote on Facebook. “I have nothing but disgust for these two people today.”

What’s got South Carolina’s third district congressman so riled up?  Comments made by Moore about the movie “American Sniper” (he called its protagonist Chris Kyle a “coward”) – and comments made by Neeson about gun ownership in the United States (he referred to it as a “f*cking disgrace”).

“If you hate our country so much – if you disrespect our freedoms and our Constitution so much – leave,” Duncan wrote in response.  “I am sure that there are socialistic states that would welcome you.”

“I love my country and people like Chris Kyle who answer the call to defend me and my family in faraway places that aren’t hospitable – who are heroes, too, whether they were snipers, sappers or cooks!” Duncan added.  “God Bless You All!  But for Michael Moore and Liam Neeson …..well, let’s just hope our paths never cross.”

Well alrighty then …

Obviously this website agrees with Duncan wholeheartedly on the issue of the Second Amendment.  Hell, we’re probably more radical than he is – urging (and practicing) the civil disobedience of unconstitutional anti-gun laws.

Why do we feel so strongly on this issue?  Because gun ownership is our right … and because it makes people safer.

As for the movie “American Sniper,” we’re going to withhold judgment until we can afford to watch it ourselves (a.k.a. when it comes out on DVD).  We can say, however, that we approach films which glorify the American soldier with roughly the same skepticism as we would a Michael Moore documentary.

And while we’ve made it abundantly clear we don’t believe U.S. soldiers are “fighting for freedom” any longer, we’re not going to call them cowards.

Impressionable?  Yes.  Guilty of misapplied patriotism?  Absolutely.  But cowards?

That’s a statement intended for shock value, not a serious discussion of America’s costly, ill-conceived foreign policy.

I feel sorry for you and if you did indeed serve this country, thank you. I guess that gives you a license to be a miserable SOB for the rest of your earthly life.

The only thing i have hatred for is cowardly pussies like you, internet tough guys who constantly say what you would do to people if you ran into them, yet hide when your offer is agreed upon, who bash anyone who disagrees with you as Un-American. You are whats truly wrong with this country, small minded racist bigots, the tea partiers who just couldnt understand how a black man was more successful then they. They cant even spell science yet laugh at those who understand science, who believe Jesus was some white guy from Iowa, the list goes on and on.. Why do you think you and grandasshat are considered such jokes, such fools, such cowards, why does no one respect you? Its what you project that offends and offers no insight, just pure racist partisan hatred.

What I can’t stand is dumbasses standing in the way of people trying to make things better for the working class, all the while repeating simple-minded propaganda designed by the uber rich to trick a portion of the poor/middle class into voting against their best interests.

I mean, fuck, you have Rand Paul making fun of people on disability because they have anxiety or back problems. “HURR DURR WELL I’M ANXIOUS AND MY BACK HURTS AT THE END OF THE DAY TOO, GET OVER IT!” Yes, I’m sure you deal with crippling panic attacks or other disorders and/or spinal problems that require multiple major surgeries just to be able to walk with a hunch for short distances without it feeling like somebody is stabbing you repeatedly with a meat cleaver in the back.

Most Americans are good people, I just wish most of those good people wouldn’t be gullible enough to think the shitty people are looking out for them. Because they aren’t.

The funny thing is, the liberals can leave. Conservatives don’t have shit. Nearly any other country they could even dream of moving to has universal health care, affordable and quality public education, and a vast array of other hallmarks of modern western civilization that they demonize as “socialist nonsense we can’t afford.”

Well, I forget, they love shirtless Putin and the way Russia treats gays, maybe they could go there.

From what bios about Duncan I’ve seen, he never served a day and it’s fakes like him that talk smack from the start.
And FITs is jealous that he passed up his opportunity as a young man and is playing the old game of “coulda/shoulda/woulda” now that he is past the age to join like so many others of his age.

For the record, I’m really not too keen on watching “American Sniper”,”Fury” or other flicks portraying intense combat scenes. But “wanna-be’s” like Duncan eat that stuff up and always will (probably FITs as well).
If I’m not mistaken, it was Duncan who saw some government agents a year or so ago during a training demonstration and wanted to know why they were touting M-16’s and wanted to launch an investigation why they were issued them………………. like he didn’t know even local cops have the damn things.
When Duncan mouths off consider the source

Michael Moore and his ilk are not worthy of being called Americans. If you have ever looked at any of his crap (work) you catch on fast that he is against our country in every way. Back when that Al Gore channel was on TV I caught some of his shows. Ignorant, stupid and vile is about what they were.

Of course, they like the movie. It helps them send US soldiers to war to protect the 1 %. So, tell me how a movie that encourages people to respond on a primal level of hatred, aggression and racism is helping understand American soldiers in the battle fields? This is a white trash movie that encourages hatred. Clint Eastwood is an old angry man that sees the world from a very authoritarian way. It doesn’t help American soldiers. It encourages hatred toward them from the rest of the world. Shame on you, Clint Eastwood! Shame on the racism that you have steered up in both side (American side and the rest of the world against US soldiers). It’s irresponsible. Encourage people to get an education instead. THINK!

This movie is educational. Did you even see it? If anything you leave the theatre questioning why we are wasting the blood of such valorous soldiers in a costly, no-win mission. The viewer can see and internalize the tremendous mental and physical training these soldiers endure. The sacrifices and challenges they face in a harsh environment. The decisions they make in real time that can not be rolled back and the impact on their psyche. It struck me as an honest portrayal of this conflict where there were no winners.

” We can say, however, that we approach films which glorify the American soldier with roughly the same skepticism as we would a Michael Moore documentary.”

Good man. Some people consider it heresy to question the use of our troops and attack you with blind, unthinking, “patriotism”. It’s a silly kind of nationalism that is in essence no different from Nazi pride in that it looks to blame others for problems the gov’t created. (like ISIS, Al Qaeda, etc., all organizations that our gov’t funded at one time)

“My Uncle was killed in WWII by a sniper. We were taught snipers were cowards. Snipers are not heroes.”
No where did he call snipers cowards. If my uncle or father had been killed by a sniper I might feel the same way. As for them not being heroes, being a sniper certainly does not make you a hero. In fact being in the military does not make you a hero. You have to something extraordinary to be a hero. I guess I think this is just another right wing Fake News made up controversy.

You gotta love fake patriotism brought out by this MOVIE. Americans spent 90 million dollars in 3 days, lose their mind whenever a negative word is spoken about A MOVIE, and will attack ANYONE that doesn’t jump on the Kyle MOVIE bandwagon.

But in REAL LIFE veterans continue to struggle – Where is the outrage over that? Where are those angry tweets? If these people really cared about vets, veteran suicides would not be running near 10 a day, the VA would have all the money it needs, every veteran would have lifetime health care, there would be no homeless veteran problem and veteran unemployment would be close to zero.

Funny, some people in this country get fighting mad defending a character in a movie while thousands of real veterans struggle to survive…fake patriotism at it’s finest!
