Stop offensive comments

Rating: Null/10 (4 July 2002)

I felt compelled to write because of some of the nasty comments other users have written directed at American audiences and Americans in general.
"The Patriot" is a very silly film, but one has to keep in mind that a film like this, with its historical subject, makes a mockery of ALL who were involved in it (in this case both Americans and the English). Consequently, it's perfectly fair to condemn those who made it, but some have gone further and made offensive, borderline-racist comments about americans (one user said 'a dumb movie for dumb audiences (americans)') which have no place here.
"The Patriot" represents Mel Gibson and tens of millions of dollars of Hollywood money, NOT the U.S. or its citizens. Europeans who fail to draw the distinction are just as ignorant as those Americans who swallow films like this whole.
