This will be the most lopsided poll in SBR history.

Hell, a head shot of John Wayne will probably appear above the logo by tomorrow.

[unde0087]

Guy is a legend. I remember growing up watching every western with my dad. I agree with the guy, quit crying about the past and build a future. As for the poll i neither like the guy more or less from this clip. Guy was my hero growing up so a 2 minute video has no effect.

I'm surprised he didn't shoot this Brit in the head and dump him overboard.

[jtoler]

Short on acting, long on idiocy.

Who doesn't like John Wayne?.. His old movies are classics.. He's a mans man....

"Elvis was a hero to most
But he never meant shit to me you see
Straight up racist that sucker was
Simple and plain
Mother Fukk him and
John Wayne"



1971 interview with Playboy in which Wayne talked disparagingly about black people.
“I believe in white supremacy until the blacks are educated to a point of responsibility. I don’t believe in giving authority and positions of leadership and judgment to irresponsible people,” he told the magazine.

[Mac4Lyfe]

I believe in white supremacy, until the blacks are educated to a point of responsibility. I don’t believe giving authority and positions of leadership and judgment to irresponsible people … I don’t feel we did wrong in taking this great country away from [the Native Americans] … Our so-called stealing of this country from them was just a matter of survival. There were great numbers of people who needed new land, and the Indians were selfishly trying to keep it for themselves.

He also dodged the draft multiple times during World War II.

Quite an American hero.

And here’s what he had to say about promoting diversity in Hollywood:

I’ve directed two pictures and I gave the blacks their proper position. I had a black slave in The Alamo, and I had a correct number of blacks in The Green Berets. If it’s supposed to be a black character, naturally I use a black actor. But I don’t go so far as hunting for positions for them. I think the Hollywood studios are carrying their tokenism a little too far. There’s no doubt that 10 percent of the population is black, or colored, or whatever they want to call themselves; they certainly aren’t Caucasian. Anyway, I suppose there should be the same percentage of the colored race in films as in society. But it can’t always be that way. There isn’t necessarily going to be 10 percent of the grips or sound men who are black, because more than likely, 10 percent haven’t trained themselves for that type of work.

You've posted here long enough.

You do realize most of SBR will respond with a "fvcking-A right" than a "what the f\*\*k?" right?

[jtoler]

Too young, didnt see any of his movies.

PLAYBOY: But isn’t it true that we’re never likely to rectify the inequities in our educational system until some sort of remedial education is given to disadvantaged minority groups?
WAYNE: What good would it do to register anybody in a class of higher algebra or calculus if they haven’t learned to count? There has to be a standard. I don’t feel guilty about the fact that five or 10 generations ago these people were slaves. Now, I’m not condoning slavery. It’s just a fact of life, like the kid who gets infantile paralysis and has to wear braces so he can’t play football with the rest of us. I will say this, though: I think any black who can compete with a white today can get a better break than a white man. I wish they’d tell me where in the world they have it better than right here in America.
PLAYBOY: Many militant blacks would argue that they have it better almost anywhere else. Even in Hollywood, they feel that the color barrier is still up for many kinds of jobs. Do you limit the number of blacks you use in your pictures?
WAYNE: Oh, Christ no. I’ve directed two pictures and I gave the blacks their proper position. I had a black slave in The Alamo, and I had a correct number of blacks in The Green Berets. If it’s supposed to be a black character, naturally I use a black actor. But I don’t go so far as hunting for positions for them.

Sportsmen Lounge - “John Wayne used to come here all the time,” he recalled. “He was apansy, you know.” In a million years, I would have never guessed that
John Wayne, that lovable redneck, was gay. But my source told me
“most of those cowboys were.”“He used to come by in the afternoon with men to go fishing in the
pond and then they’d take a room and he’d say he was in ‘conference’
and that he shouldn’t be disturbed. We all knew what that meant and
one of the chambermaids told us that she once caught him getting a
blowjob from a guy. But unlike some of the other stars who came by
with men, Wayne didn’t like them too young. His friends were usually
in their twenties or even older, but none of them were famous, at
least not the ones he would rent a room with.”

John Wayne is good a guy. We had a drink in Vegas back in 1978.

[dlowilly]

Who doesn't like John Wayne?

I believe this thread has answered that

I predict a yuge comeback for The Duke when 9 to 5 ers wake up

[dlowilly]

Wait a second, you mean he didn't try to get you back to his room the way he liked to do according to mac4lyfe's rock solid pasted source?

[miltonschwartz]

Love everything Duke stands for

[miltonschwartz]

There is only 1 Duke

[dlowilly]

He also dodged the draft multiple times during World War II.

Quite an American hero.

Actually he did dodge military service because he was afraid of "losing the best lay he's ever had" in Marlene Dietrich. So either you're right or as mac4lyfe says the 3 times married father of seven was a flamer. This is the type of triggering dilemma that sends some running for a safe space.

[miltonschwartz]

Who gives a fuk if John Wayne didn't serve? He was/is a national treasure. I forgive him

John Wayne a fckin legend

[unde0087]

No one cares. If he wants to post a bunch of bullshit hating on the Duke more power to him. I mean who can argue with these articles from such esteemed publications as Playboy and Sportsmen Lounge?

[dlowilly]

No. What does it mean?

The next time someone brings up John Wayne he'll refer to a guy he knew that fuked him in Vegas.

Don't forget quoting lyrics from Pubic Enemy. Them criticizing Elvis and John Wayne is like your average poster criticizing Lebron's game.

I would say comparing how a guy plays a game and trying to deface a person that is deceased would be two different things. But again, what the guy believed and how he chose to live his life has no effect on me. I watched his movies growing up and like them. Outside his western persona I could careless how he spent his free time.

Yeah ur right, it is 2 different things. I wasn't trying to compare the action as much as pointing out the vast difference in talent.

"I don't believe you should look back whine and bellyache or try to hold someone else guilt for everything (that happened)."
