Hollywood Libs Who Rushed To Condemn 'American Sniper' protected by LAPD Sniper Teams
2015-02-24
[The Blaze] "All this prep work culminates early Oscar Sunday, when the LAPD embarks on a block-by-block sweep of the neighborhood. By 3 p.m., the maze of streets around the Dolby is as locked down as a military base. Sharpshooters are positioned atop buildings, while close to 600 uniformed cops surround the perimeter in a daunting show of force."

#7  Wonder if the celebs or big events like this are made to pay the taxpayers back for all that extra security?

#6  The difference is that Chris Kyle shot brown people. These LA snipers didn't shoot anyone. And if the had, it would have been to defend Hollywood stars, which is a noble cause.

#2  I think there was a media blackout of the protest. Err, whiteout...redout? No..greenout..ah FI.

The best chance of that protest getting any attention would have been Oprah. She was spotted cutting through security checks and acting the fool in the audience.

Whatever coverage there would have been was snuffed by some white rich bobblehead girl rambling about some equal pay cuz work b hard for girlz, or something.

I wonder if Oprah's original intent was to get some stage lighting on the protest, and when she realized that was not going to happen, booked it into the audience to get maximum face/schmooz time.
