Let me just cut to the chase and make this plain and simple.
Save your money. This movie is too long, too boring, too simple, too inconsistent, too stupid and too self-indulgent.
There. I just saved you anywhere from $8 to $24 depending on the theater you attend, and how much popcorn you purchase. Per person.
You’re welcome.

Patrick Caddell is no slobbering Conservative. Yet he had this to say about the national American Media Maggots and their “coverage” of Benghazi back in 2012:
This man became strident with his insistence that the AMM have “become a fundamental threat to American democracy and the enemies of the American people. These people have no honor.”
“This president didn’t care enough to stay in the White House and, quote, ‘find out what was going on the next day.’ I am so personally nauseated by this.”
I couldn’t agree more, Mr Caddell. I couldn’t agree more.

Americans now ‘racist’ for waving American flag.
by Bob Unruh
Americans now are being blasted as “racist” for the simple act of waving an American flag.
It happened Monday in California to a small group of protesters who waved U.S. flags in front of a school where officials had banned the practice to avoid violence threatened by Hispanic students celebrating Cinco de Mayo.
Let me be clear: many Mexicans call the 5th of May “Cinco de Gringo,” because it’s more revered by Caucasoids than Mexicans.
The controversy brought a small group of protesters out Monday, and the community reacted immediately.
“What’s wrong with these white people holding up American flags in Morgan hill??? Racist a–holes,” wrote Gia Lee in a feed monitored by Twitchy.
The report also noted the school superintendent was confirming that students wearing American flag-themed shirts on Monday “won’t be kicked out.”
“Read that sentence again and then cringe at the fact that had to be said in the United States,” the Twitchy report said.
The San Francisco Chronicle reported a group called Gilroy-Morgan Hill Patriots stood in front of Live Oak High School for about an hour waving American flags.
The protest followed the decision earlier this year by the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals that school officials, in a dispute four years ago, were right to suspend the First Amendment rights of students who wanted to wear U.S. flag-themed shirts on Cinco de Mayo.
How sad that people have to cringe in fear of negative labeling by embracing the flag of their nation.
Meaning: Mexicans refuse to embrace the flag of the nation they now live in and benefit from. Truly, that is the issue here, nothing else.
Not the French, not Indonesians, not Filipinos, not Puerto Ricans, not Ethiopians, not Danes, not Icelanders, not Ukrainians, not Chileans, not Chinese.
Mexicans.
Let me remind all that Mexicans are actually South American Indians and speak Spanish because their country was conquered by Spain. They don’t speak Aztec or Toltec or Mayan. Mexicans speak Spanish.
One nice, embracing comment:
“F— your American flag. Racist as f—s. I’ll always have pride with my Mexican flag but not the American one,” wrote Ivan Mora.
Let me make this abundantly clear, so that I repeat:
“F— your American flag. Racist as f—s. I’ll always have pride with my Mexican flag but not the American one,” wrote Ivan Mora.
The case centers on a decision made on May 5, 2010, by Assistant Principal Miguel Rodriguez. During a break, Rodriguez told several school students they were not allowed to wear U.S. flag shirts. He allegedly told them that he had received complaints from some Hispanic students about the flag apparel, and the students were not allowed to wear clothing that would offend them.
Offense. Wearing an American flag shirt qualifies as offensive.
Whilst, simultaneously, Mexicans embrace Mexico but not the country they currently inhabit.

It is a sad, sad state of affairs. America is now turned completely upside down.
But I submit: not for very much longer.

From Ginny Simone:
Once again I say — and history has proven this time and time thereafter — persons who are unarmed are called Serfs, Proles, Groundlings.
“It’s not even in the cards — right now.” So says Lt J. Paul Vance of the Connecticut State Police. Sorry sir. I don’t believe you for an instant. You made an equivocation.
Surrendering our freedoms. Does this sound like America to you? Why do our soldiers fight for our so-called “rights” if we are simply in the process of giving them away to a New World Order that disdains state and national rights for an overarching global hegemony?
The Second Amendment does not — please let me emphasize this — exist to protect so-called “hunters.” It exists solely for the protection of the citizen from the actions of its government. Plain and simple. Nothing more, nothing less. I submit the founding fathers were frighteningly prescient.
Here’s the funny thing: I don’t see in the many videos available regarding the diminishment of our Second Amendment rights, many Asians or black or Mexicans. Because they should, en masse, have gathered around
A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed.
One point of Libertarianism upon which I most wholeheartedly agree, and why I left the GOP and became a registered Independent:
“We’re better off when government was left small, and people were free.”

More American Freedoms Removed.
From WSJ.com:
by Jason Zweig
In December, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, which oversees how investments are sold, proposed what it calls Cards, an electronic system that would regularly collect data on balances and transactions in brokerage accounts.
If adopted, Cards would revolutionize how regulators do their jobs and could make it harder for unscrupulous brokers to bilk customers.
Right. Let’s — again — trade freedom for alleged security.
But some critics think it could endanger the privacy and security of investors’ confidential data. And the proposal ups the ante for Finra, which often has been criticized for letting wrongdoers slip through the cracks.
Under Cards (which stands for Comprehensive Automated Risk Data System), Finra would collect—probably weekly—a record of activity at all of the more than 4,100 brokerage firms nationwide.
It means this: the federal government being able to scan your investment portfolio, any time, for any reason, unimpeded and — of course — unmonitored and unchecked.
Benjamin Franklin, you rake, take it away:
“Those who surrender freedom for security will not have,
nor do they deserve, either one.”
Under CARDS you will not have fiscal privacy or fiscal freedom, nor will you have digital or personal security when the government can sift through your financial records wholesale. And when that said security, conglomerated in one place, can be hacked at will by insiders or those paid by outsiders.
