“‘Gone With the Wind”… Is Gone’ (2017)

After including the film in its summer movie schedule year after year, in 2017 the Orpheum Theater, in Memphis, suddenly decided that Gone With the Wind had to be yanked from the slate and never shown again.

Why? Because the “pro-choice” mob decided this was yet another choice they would have to make for you–you can’t be trusted to choose correctly on your own. And they will decide what’s correct or not.

All this high-handed bullying and vandalism gets pitched to us as “social justice” etc. Only leftids can give a bad name to “justice.”

Remember: when they say “choice,” it means “my way or no way!”

The one time I include a link to my Bell Mountain page on amazon.com, no one can open my Newswithviews column. I kept trying, though, and finally here it is.

Coming up with one of these every week for five years is not as easy as it looks, so enjoy it while you’ve got it.

Well, here we go again with the “pro-choice” crowd taking away your choices. This time it’s the management of the Orpheum Theater in Memphis, Tennessee, dropping the corny classic Gone With the Wind from its summer movies series because it’s supposedly “insensitive to a large segment of the population.” (http://wreg.com/2017/08/25/orpheum-theater-wont-show-gone-with-the-wind-calling-film-insensitive/)

Remember, “pro-choice” means “no choice.”

Most of the people living in Memphis are black. So what? This movie has been shown at this theater for many years, decades, even, without anyone complaining. Now all of a sudden it’s a problem? Now it’s offensive? Why now, and not twenty years ago, or ten, or five?

I’ve seen Gone with the Wind. It’s gorgeously filmed schlock, with an ending ripped off of Thackeray’s Barry Lyndon, published in 1844. Why anyone should be prevented from seeing it is beyond me. But liberals just love making our decisions for us. They’d like to make ’em all.

As Christians we have no king but Christ. As pitiable worldlings they have no king but Caesar. If Caesar says the movie’s okay for them to watch, they flock to it in droves. If he says it’s not okay, they won’t let anybody watch it.

And who, exactly, is their Caesar?

I think we can figure that out, don’t you?
