He was inviting the violent to try it on him. VERY different from your purposed mischaracterization.

I said he was looking for an excuse to kill some person who was not the person who violated his loved one. That's not "mischaracterization", that's what Neeson said he did.

In his own words, "I went out into ‘black areas’ in the city...I did it for maybe a week — hoping some (Neeson gestures air quotes with his fingers) ‘black b******’ would come out of a pub and have a go at me about something, you know? So that I could kill him".

That's what the man said. And as I said, it's mindless and racist.

neeson is also a rabid anti-gun left wing fanatic-

“Gunmaker PARA USA has called for an industry boycott of movies starring the actor after he criticized U.S. gun policy during a press tour for his latest film.

In a statement posted on its Facebook page Saturday, PARA said it “regrets” providing firearms for the action blockbuster “Taken 3” and won’t provide guns for any more of Neeson’s films. He plays retired CIA agent Bryan Mills in the “Taken” franchise, which has so far has grossed more than $750 million worldwide.

Neeson criticized gun culture — and the high levels of ownership in the U.S. — in the wake of the Charlie Hebdo killings in France, while on a press tour in Dubai last week.

“There’s too many f—ing guns out there,” he told Dubai-based Gulf News.”

He’s an idiot for admitting that.

A black face or black comment comes before the rape of a woman. We are witnessing the absolute destruction of women and mankind at so many levels.

“Far as I’m concerned, he didn’t kill anybody, so who cares”

Also, he didn’t just want to kill someone. He wanted some lowlife to attack him so he could perform a self-defense killing.

I agree with another poster: Neeson must be trying to help his movie sales.

OTOH he is one of these libtard Trump haters who would be yelling to impeach trump for a lot less. I can't help feeling a little satisfaction seeing the libs eat another one of their own.

Neeson proves once again that movie stars are a stupid lot. Knowing the PC times in which we live, why would he have ever thought it was wise to say what he said? We all have those moments when we're about to say something, and that little voice in our head tells us not to. Where was that small voice that should have told him to STFU?

And I do not agree at all with what he said. I had a friend who was raped and murdered in her own home by a black man. I was robbed at gunpoint by a black gang in a place of business once in which we all had to lie face down on the floor. Those events did not make me want to provoke an attack from a black person so that I could kill one. It did make me bold about acting on my suspicions. If I am walking along and see a few yutes/teens approaching, I will cross the street or go into a nearby business, or just leave the area. And I always carry concealed.

No, I think that's the plot of "Taken 14 and a 1/2"

No. That was Taken 10.27604. Taken 14 and a 1/2 was when they stole his venti mocha half-caff latte from the cup-holder in his BMW i8.

It wasn’t merely a thought, he claims to have gone out prowling for an innocent target he could victimize himself.

Well, there is that, of course. But it's a separate issue from whether these things should be brought up, or what they mean. Still, we're all Aliskysites now, and let's hold them to their own standards. See how they like it.

As an actor, looks like he's really "method".

Risky, very risky. Especially as a white male. But he asked for it, not, as I said, that I care.

As an actor, he has all the expressive range of a boiled turnip and line delivery in flat monotones of a script reader.

He is a leftard fool. Someone soon should ask him what WOULD be racist. But this crap is planned as a way to distract the dumbed down maases, since even the dumbed down retain sufficiant alivenss to comprehend the depravity required to endorse such evil as Northam and Cuomo have exhibited toward the alive innocent ... I hope.

Precisely. It’s not the rape. After all, muslims do it to infidels every day, and we just have to learn to understand the cultural sensitivities of that and abide.

Thinking ill of those of another race, or creed, because their cultural practices cry out against humanity - unforgivable.

You might be right. Hypocrisy reigns on the Left. But he is white; and he has stepped on a very big nail. I think he'll suffer for a while at least, and have to make a BIG contribution to some race-hustler. Otherwise, he'll be lock-jawed. I think.

I’d rather Liam be a racist than have him telling me how what kind of car to drive, or how many squares of TP to use, or what I cant eat, or how I should think....

Everyone who says he’s not racist is lying.

Or self-deluded.

Or both.
