I'm not so sure I agree with that statement. I think that the idea of a White man (or man-mammy was the term I used in my original post) avenging the murder of some little black girl is probably even more unrealistic than this storyline. If a white person came on the board and said that it was, I wouldn't be offended.
Similarly, I've also made it known that it is not my mission in life censor my words so as to not upset people. I say what I feel, I'm honest about race relations and talk about it as I see it. If someone is living their life wearing rose colored glasses and gets offended by my comments that is too bad.
We do agree on one thing...Denzel does get better and better. Too bad the scripts for these movies can't keep up with his advancing ability.
Anyhow, I'm with you NuQueen, I appreciate his decision to keep that scene out of the movie.
