In reply to the discussion: Morgan Freeman: “TAKE OUR COUNTRY BACK!” What the f--k is that? [View all]libdem4life
(13,877 posts)50. Not arguing...but for clarity of my thought and intention ...McCarthy is known for his attacks
and public committees against prominent Liberals putting or keeping them in line, one way or the other.
I was actually drawing a parallel between racism to communism and the intense power that still exists. I lived in LA for decades and progress is being made, but name for me more than 2-3 black, female stars on par with Freeman...not light-skinned or bi-racial or married to prominent white men...black women, other than Oprah. Ask her about it.
Same with LAPD and LA County Sheriff ... I could go on and on, but that wasn't my intent.
Sometimes when one tries to edit comments to fit on just a few lines, it's easy to be misunderstood. Thank you for the opportunity as others might have misunderstood, as well.
Peace.

My first exposure to Mr. Freeman was via The Electric Company, way back in the mid '70s.

Love his intro to his newest show, is reality real? Could it be a double meaning......

Morgan Freeman is a national treasure. I adore him. I was at the 3rd street promenade

It's not like right wingers haven't falsely attributed quotes to him before.

And he is incredibly brave. Real Liberal Hollywood still lives in the shadows, thanks to McCarthy.
