Eastwood: “I Don’t Want To Be Politically Correct”
London, February 27 (ANI): Acting legend Clint Eastwood , 79, apparently believes that political correctness has rendered modern society humourless, for he accuses younger generations of spending too much time trying to avoid being offensive.
The Dirty Harry star insists that he should be able to tell harmless jokes about nationality without fearing that people may brand him “a racist”.
“People have lost their sense of humour. In former times we constantly made jokes about different races. You can only tell them today with one hand over your mouth or you will be insulted as a racist,” the Daily Express quoted him as saying.
“I find that ridiculous. In those earlier days every friendly clique had a ‘Sam the Jew’ or ‘Jose the Mexican’ - but we didn’t think anything of it or have a racist thought. It was just normal that we made jokes based on our nationality or ethnicity. That was never a problem. I don’t want to be politically correct.
We’re all spending too much time and energy trying to be politically correct about everything,” he added.

two days ago i watched gran torino and holy shit was it great!!! get’em Clint!!
I also watched GRAN TORINO and the movie was not even mentioned at the grammys. Commie fuckin pigs in hollyweed, they can shove their false God up their asses!!! bastards
Made my day!
Thanks Harry. 
P.S. damn nice rifle. I’m in the market for one. CMP here I come.
Clint makes some really good movies man. I’ve been a fan since his “Rowdy Yates” days.
“Keep movin’, movin’, movin’,
Though they’re disapprovin’,
Keep them doggies movin’ Rawhide!
Don’t try to understand ‘em,
Just rope and throw and grab ‘em…”
Sounds like something one might do with useless socialists eh?
I really wanted to see Grand Torino. Come to think of it, it’s the only movie I heard of this year that I’d like to buy. Well except Fast and the Furios….I’ll probably see that a few times.
And Eastwoods’ got it dead on. Political Correctness has in itself created racist thoughts.
Fuck YEAH!
Clint Eastwood is awesome.
Clint stands head and shoulders above the hollyweird crowd - one of few with the balls to stand up and make a movie like Gran Torino in this day and age. The fact that Eastwood and Torino were shut out of the oscars speaks to how good a movie it was, especially when the “winners” were libtard idiots like Sean Penn
Yeah Clint!
Best movie ive seen this year, or last year for that matter.
sean penn is a communist piece of shit like all the rest of hollywank. I wish the bastard would take a swing at me..
Clint Eastwood for President…
The Good, the Bad and the Ugly -> Clint Eastwood, Obama and Hillary Clinton
About time we heard this from someone in Hollywood. Too bad he’ll just be brushed aside as some old dinosaur out of touch with modern America.
maybe he’d do an endorsement for the new site,
eh Pat?
brovato-I think you meant the emmy’s-regardign the statement, I agree.
I’ve always loved him. We share a birthday.
Clint
you the man!
