Thousands of Border Patrol Cops Don’t Want You To Watch Quentin Tarantino Movies

Quentin Tarantino keeps making more armed enemies. An organization that represents over 16,000 U.S. border patrol officers announced that they have joined the boycott against Tarantino, for speaking at an NYC anti-police brutality rally. The statement objected to Tarantino’s “hateful” words and “dangerous” actions.  The statement says nothing about whether QT was right or wrong, or why they think he was wrong, or why the police shouldn’t be protecting the right to express an opinion.  It just says people shouldn’t see his movies.  Wasn’t there a  scene like this in Idiocracy?  Maybe you’d better not see that either, just to be safe.

Leaders of the National Border Patrol Council, the union that represents more than 16,500 men and women who protect our nation’s borders, expressed their outrage at Quentin Tarantino, who last Saturday joined a New York protest of police brutality and called police “murderers.” The Hollywood filmmaker’s words and actions are “a disgusting and dangerous insult” to all law enforcement officers, said NBPC president Brandon Judd. The Border Patrol, he pointed out, is one of the nation’s largest law enforcement agencies. “We stand strongly in support of our brothers and sisters in uniform who have called for a boycott of Tarantino movies,” Judd said. “His hateful words, spoken just four days after a NYPD officer was gunned down in East Harlem, will only embolden those who would do harm to police officers. Aren’t we a big enough target already?” The NBPC is proud to join the nation’s five largest police unions, all of which have called for a boycott of Tarantino’s work, including his upcoming movie, “The Hateful Eight.” Judd said he agrees wholeheartedly with the Los Angeles Police Protective League, which issued a statement saying “Tarantino took irresponsibility to a new and completely unacceptable level.”
