I’m old enough to remember other times in this country’s history where violent crime was widespread in the very same cities where it is rampant today. Hollywood, back then was not so progressive to ignore the large scale problems. And those Hollywood studios came out with movies like Death Wish and Dirty Harry. The movies were so popular that many sequels were made.
The basic premise of these movies was that in order to fix the crime problems that the politicians refused to fix, individuals (you can call them rogue cops, or vigilantes) fought back causing the crime levels to decrease. Now I am not advocating rogue cops or vigilantes. But I see it rather disturbing that Hollywood, in being so progressive, won’t even touch the subject of widespread, rampant, violent crime in those very same big cities that border on anarchy, when they were very profitable subjects of movies years ago.
