Why Hollywood is responsible for Aurora

Sure, it’s much easier to blame the NRA and guns for the violence perpetrated against the Batman moviegoers because the arch of social acceptance is being turned against the second amendment by the same minds that attack other fundamental constitutional rights. At the same, time these anti-constitutionalists making up rights that have no bases in the constitution but should be, “a right” according to their “socially correct” reckoning.
Where would James Holmes get the idea that he was “The Joker,” and color his hair to keep in character with that fictional personality the NRA or Hollywood? Where would the Aurora Colorado assailant and mass murderer see images of wanton violence and glorification of cold-blooded murder? The answer is easy Video games and Movies not the NRA.

Hollywood is feeding the world senseless hyper violence everyday.

Therefore, at best calls to violate the Constitutional second amendment right to bear arms are disingenuous. The minds of people all around the world are affected by reckless images of recreational violence portrayed in movies. Movies which young men the age of mass murderer James Holmes view and violent games, which they play daily in the United States and around the world.

It is said that the only thing that the United States produces for world consumption nowadays are Movies and entertainment. The entertainment that is produced in the United States is reviled by most of the world for it’s violence and sexual content which most of the world finds repulsive.

There is no question that Hollywood purposely shapes our social consciousness with messages embedded in movies regarding values, faith and acceptance. Generations of young men and women have been indoctrinated with what to think and how to act by Hollywood regarding sexuality and violence everyone knows this.

Most of us describe reality by what we’ve seen in movies. Had you ever said of an actual event, “It was like that scene in the movies where…”

Sure, it’s much easier to blame the NRA and guns for the violence perpetrated against the Batman moviegoers because the arch of social acceptance is being turned against the second amendment by the same minds that attack other fundamental constitutional rights. At the same, time these anti-constitutionalists making up rights that have no bases in the constitution but should be, “a right” according to their “socially correct” reckoning.

It is ironic that the innocent moviegoers were going to an early screening to celebrate mindless fictional violence. One wonders could this be the same fictional violence that played in the disturbed mind of shooter James Holmes who planned, dresses and acted the part of an image that is played out in thousands of movie theaters, in millions of homes on game consoles and movie channels on our flat screen televisions. An image spawn in Hollywood and repeated millions of times before the eyes of young men and women.

To be sure, the culture gatekeepers will steer the conversation into heated discussions about gun control only. This is an attempt to protect those in Hollywood who has shaped social consciousness regarding what is acceptable.

To be clear Hollywood has not directly stated that violence is acceptable however the millions of images of violence that they fed the American people and the world. The movies, which they have produced and distributed for public consumption, must be considered as a primary cause for the violence that we see acted out in the real world and in this particular instance in Colorado.

After all everyone knows that, we are what we eat.

    Nice to know you are only against the first amendment but not the second. Can we just agree that both are important and call it a day, but that would ruin your moronic rant.

  2. It is interesting that you frame your response as a defense of the first amendment. So you believe that Hollywood has a first amendment right to produce and pedal mindless and excessive violence. Do you believe that they also have a first amendment right to pedal pornography?

    Grow up! You are an ignorant Contrarian that projects your own idiocy on those who you disagree with.

    What is also interesting is that you couldn't follow the argument. This post was not questioning whether Hollywood had the right to produce trash. This post was stating that Hollywood more than gun owners or the NRA are responsible for putting anti-social thoughts in the minds of the American people.

    I suppose Hollywood is where you got many of your anti-social thoughts my friend.
