"And Brokeback Mountain is a work of art that your grandchildren will be watching."

Homo troll. No doubt about it. One page of comments in the last several years, many of them supporting the homosexual agenda.

I'm sure there's child pornography that's artistically done as well. For him to say that our grandchildren will be watching this is a key here. So Brokeback Mtn is not just a good film, it's one of those all time classics like "It's a Wonderful Life" or something.

It's a masterpiece which is going to be seen and talked about, which is going to move people to tears for many many years after we are all gone. I think that I can be a conservative and support small government, a strong defense policy and the power of the free market without losing the ability to be moved by a work of art like Brokeback Mountain

???? ROTFLMAO!!!!!

Homosexual Agenda Ping.

Here we are having a heated discussion about the merits and demerits of the homosexual lust story and we didn't even ping it out to the list!

Merry Christmas, Happy Christmas Eve, and if any of you have time for scanning this thread, chime in.

Freepmail me and DirtyHarryY2K if you want on/off this pinglist.

You know who's grandchildren won't be watching this movie? The one million gay men who live in this country and ran out to see this movie the week it came out. They won't be reproducing.

LOL - the moving story of adultery and homosexual activity -love, as defined by the morally devoid crowd.

Movie profit like morality is not defined by homosexual activist cheerleaders...

Man alive, they want to cram this movie down our throat."

Don't think this isn't true.

What they're gonna do, they're gonna shower this movie with awards and accolades. Given enough time, it will evolve into an "art" film.

I was telling my son-in-law the other day, father of my precious 2 yr old granddaughter, that "Brokeback Mountain" wasn't going to go away soon.

He shrugged and laughed, derisive to the movie in that way of normal people. He said he could care less about the movie.

I asked him what he was going to think when his daughter gets to be in about, oh say 6th grade, and they show this movie to the class under the guise of introducting them to good cinema. After all it won lots of awards and also teaches "diversity".

Because that's the plan for this movie as I see it. You watch. This movie was produced for the homosexuals of today but it was also meant to serve as propaganda for the children of the future. This movie will get so many awards, mark my words. Oscar, Golden Globes, Peoples' Choice...anything and everything. Reviewers will write glowing reviews, liberals will gush over the film's beauty.

And when my granddaughter is about 12 or so, she'll be watching it in school. She will have been raised in such a politically correct society by that time and her teachers will admonish any reaction that isn't full of praise.

My son-in-law shut the joking when I said all this.

Because THAT is the plan, ladies and gems. THAT is the plan.

One of Omni-One's abilities is to read minds, and know what people will do next. And he can see RIGHT through your little facade, with your Homo, liberal tripe, trying to be a sleeper troll. Well, you've been uncovered.

ZOT time!!

I came to this site to exchange ideas because the liberals around me weren't interested in dialogue, just in standing around agreeing with each other that Stanley Williams is a hero, or guns weren't to be trusted in the hands of the common man. And so I came to freepublic.com, where I embraced much of what was being said about faith in the individual. I only posted on threads where I wasn't in agreement with the majority--where I felt that the majority was moving toward its own kind of reverse political correctness--because where's the fun agreeing? Now I'm finding that once again it's all about standing around agreeing with each other. Has freerepublic changed in the last few years? Does anybody else feel like the dialgue has gone out of it?

Actually, it's not about "sheep herders" either since neither of the two characters does any of that (I read the story, haven't seen, won't be seeing, the film).

The entire story is just about two homosexual males who betray everyone in their lives, including themselves, their families, their employer (who spies on their evil deeds from another hilltop), their job duties...

There's nothing in this story about "love." There is only the reinforcement for homosexuals that ethical betrayals and homosexual deviance as to sexuality is the thing to watch and contemplate.

That is literally all that the film and the disgusting and digustingly badly written story from whence the film has been adapted are about.

Don't even get me started on author Proulx and the awards she has received for butchering and deviant abuse of the English language.

"It's a drama about an aspect of the human experience which is, like it or not, real. Everybody walking out of the theater when I saw it was crying or stunned--old people, young people, straight couples, gay couples. It's about loss and regret and the choices we make which spread ripples of unhappiness through our lives and the lives of people raound us. Has anybody else who has posted on this thread seen it? It's a masterpiece which is going to be seen and talked about, which is going to move people to tears for many many years after we are all gone. I think that I can be a conservative and support small government, a strong defense policy and the power of the free market without losing the ability to be moved by a work of art like Brokeback Mountain."

NAMBLA members make the same claims. Try changing the age of one of the "actors" to a 10 year old boy and the same male actor. Hollywood could manipulate your emotions similarly, but that doesn't make it right. Hollywood is not reality nor is homosexual behavior anything but perversion and a huge public health issue costing lives and wasted billions. It is indeed a masterful product of a very sick mind.

""self-respecting homosexual""



Can't say I EVER met one. One thing they all seem to lack is self respect. Anyone who thinks that a self respecting heterosexual will go to see this movie, is nuts!

And one more time, they are not cowboys, they are shepherds! Who selfishly dishonor, dismiss and deceive their wives and children.
