Disney Cuts Ties With 'Guardians of the Galaxy' Filmmaker James Gunn Over Tweets About Pedophilia
Fox News ^ | 07/20/18 | Brian Flood

Disney has severed ties with “Guardians of the Galaxy” filmmaker James Gunn, who deleted his Twitter account on Friday and addressed old tweets in which he joked about topics including pedophilia and rape.

Gunn's past tweets were dug up on Thursday by critics who oppose his political beliefs. The filmmaker is an outspoken liberal who often criticizes President Trump.

One of the now-deleted tweets said, “I like when little boys touch me in my silly place.”

Another message read: “The best thing about being raped is when you’re done being raped and it’s like ‘whew this feels great, not being raped!'”

Other now-deleted tweets from 2008-2011 included jokes about the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, AIDS and the holocaust.

“The offensive attitudes and statements discovered on James’ Twitter feed are indefensible and inconsistent with our studio’s values, and we have severed our business relationship with him." - Walt Disney Studios chairman Alan Horn

“The offensive attitudes and statements discovered on James’ Twitter feed are indefensible and inconsistent with our studio’s values, and we have severed our business relationship with him,” Walt Disney Studios chairman Alan Horn told Fox News in a statement.

Another example of why homosexuals should never be allowed anywhere near children.

Disney’s director Jame Gunn endorsed sex with minors in over 10,000 Tweets he deleted last night. Gunn also deleted his personal blog, where he told the story of a monkey m-sturbating on a small child. He said the story made him “extremely happy.”

Oh my - I just found one of his tweets

I’m not even going to post the link - the language AND the subject matter are completely inappropriate for a family-friendly forum.

And this guy had the gall to repeatedly attack Trump’s character on social media. Of course, I’m sure he doesn’t think he said/did anything wrong. Sick, sick, sick.

Wow. This guy really is seriously creepy. It’s one thing to, in an act of youthful exuberance, say something inappropriate. This goes a bit farther than that.

Quite a bit, actually.

Given Disney’s proclivities, one must only conclude they cut ties because he made it too obvious.

That Disney had anything to do with this guy is not surprising.

Walt Disney died many years ago. The company has since been taken over by America's fetid and perverted entertainment elites, and corrupt and materialistic financial elites long ago.

That is my thinking. Disney has been very pro-homo for decades now.

One thing Disney hates is a loose cannon pedophile making the other more discreet pedophiles at Disney share the spotlight.
