Also, I don't know if making political arguments in the future subjunctive tense is the way to go as we approach the midterm elections. We on the RIGHT side of the issues have plenty to discuss with our friends across the aisle about the here and the now without talking about what group Y would do if group M did that.

IIRC/FWIW, La Raza did not protest the depiction of Latinos in American Me, Blood In / Blood Out, or Training Day. Although La Eme did have creative differences with Edward James Olmos over American Me. (In a compromise solution, he moved to NYC for a while.)
Dirty Harry is playing each evening this week on AMC, all five movies.

As for Machete, Quinton Taratino likes the copy the 70's exploitation genre. I enjoyed Planet of Terror/ Death Proof. Machete was the trailer for the double-feature. Who would have thought a movie would surface? Wait, he did.

As for double standards for racism, sex, religion, etc., they exist.
