1. I just submitted a comment questioning why Lloyd Bridges would be considered guilty of “liberal politics” simply because he didn’t want guys showing up to work on HIS property with weapons. You displayed my comment for a few minutes and then it was gone.Why? Did something about my comment offend you?

   1. I removed your comment because you implied that this was the only evidence that Bridges was a liberal. But I clearly stated that just ONE EXAMPLE was his ejecting workmen from his property, because they had guns in their vehicles. I don’t appreciate it when readers twist my words.

      1. Sorry JWR, but if you wished to label Bridges as a liberal, maybe you should have cited more than one example to make your case. Many of us grew up watching Sea Hunt, and wish that our memories of Lloyd Bridges could just be left intact. What purpose does it serve to try to destroy fond memories of a harmless TV show?

         I certainly didn’t wish to “twist your words”. I enjoy this site every evening and usually don’t try to offend anyone unless they need offending. I will tread a bit more lightly here. Thanks for your response.

         1. Among other things, Lloyd Bridges was an advocate of World Government. Did he really think through what that meant in terms of a Lowest Common Denominator, for individual liberty? In many ways, he was a predecessor of the dozens (hundreds?) of outspoken liberals in contemporary Hollywood. We are now constantly besieged by their political rants and tirades. (For example, Robert DeNiro’s foul-mouthed tirades against DJT.) And what qualifies them to pontificate on the affairs of state? Their beauty or their handsomeness? Their ability to memorize lines in a script? They use their stardom as an oversize marble podium, when all they deserve is the same apple crate, as any other citizen.

            1. I share your contempt for foul mouthed, arrogant Hollywood types. I really don’t need their lectures, after all they went through acting school, period. Big deal. And I’m sure none of them have any use whatsoever for my opinion, I’m just a Bible toting, gun loving derelict from the middle of the country. Disappointed to hear this about Lloyd Bridges, I thought they made ’em better back then.

2. The man has a right to what’s allowed on his property.

   1. yes he does but it does reveal a certain mentality about rights…

      1. As Long as you´rent´t an officer of the law on duty you don´t ´ve any Rights to carry arms on another person´s property without his explizit permission

3. It must have been the wrong day to stop sniffing glue. Airplane movie early 80’s (sarcasm)

4. You note Lloyd Bridges was blacklisted for his liberal politics. Seems to me that denying a man his employment for political reasons is antithetical to the concept of liberty.

   Carry on

   1. well i say tolerating the intolerant will only get you sunk into the black pit of death and destruction….
