According to the Jersey Chronicles today, around 200 people walked out of a free screening of Uwe Boll's Postal movie this week, apparently disquieted by an opening sequence in which terrorists hijack planes and attempt to fly them to the Bahamas instead of Manhattan.

The planes eventually hit the Twin Towers after passengers storm the cockpit. Uwe Boll claims that the scene was intended to be humorous, and a statement on breaking taboo.

I'm honestly not making this up, and I doubt I'm the only person disgusted by the above passages.

"I did not like Uwe Boll's perception of 9/11," said Mat Levy, a man who appeared as "Cheezy" on season two of VH1's celebrity dating show "I Love New York". Like anyone here knows what that is.

"It's too soon to mock a plane going into the World Trade Center. Do you not think there are families out there that had their loved ones killed on 9/11? It really upsets me that he couldn’t care less."

Boll told the paper's blog that, "We don't spare any group. We don't want to hurt anybody but we want to break the rules. We want to make people think: what is a taboo? We want to make people start thinking about their own boundaries and rules."

I used to just think you were an idiot before, Boll. Now I just think you're scum.

It is not a taboo to try and mock 9/11 it simply something no one is stupid//heartless//downright insane enough to do.

In any case most of Uwe Boll's films all can be alternately titled "Box Office Poison." and it would save on naming values.

By: Dragonsoul On: 09:10 Jun 3rd, 2008 Offline	sighs I don't quite get why people would find this funny at all, considering the subject matter. I know people ain't suppose to take life too seriously and all, but some things are rather sacred and ought to be respected, at least for a reasonable period of time.

The ultimate goal being the further enriching of the super rich, and complete subjugation of the population. It's a power grab such as the wealthy have been perpetrating since the beginning of time. What's sad is the American people are in large too stupid to even realize what their rights are, let alone that they're losing them en masse. By the way, if you don't buy this, check out this Administration's plans as laid out in the Project For a New American Century (PNAC) Documents. It spells out the governments plans, and so far they're sticking to them. People died...a lot of them, and I feel horrible for them, and normally I don't support suppressing artistic vision, but Boll needs to realize there's a difference between breaking the taboo and simply being an ass. I've played Postal, and there's no need to tie together that game and the events of the most famous false flag operation in U.S. history. However, that aside, I think people need to direct their anger toward the murderous globalists like Bush and Cheney who are running our nation, and not on some hack director who makes notoriously bad films.
