Bill Haslam on self defense in public places
Просмотров 2,1 тыс.15 лет назад
Knoxville City Mayor Bill Haslam takes the path of least resistance and attempts to please everyone. End result is failure as Mayor Haslam only pleases progressive liberals and outrages conservatives. The unknown question is whether a misdemeanor charge on carrying a firearm in a public place will result in loss of the carry permit. This is the absence of leadership. Mayor Haslam was a member o...

Another reason to remove Lumpy Lambert from Commission
Potter is just like Trump, Musk, Bezos. The y want and promote a poor working class off whose backs and labor they make millions. All Trump's policies will harm the members of his cult
A little socialist creeping in
Classic film.
George Bailey doesn't exist. At least, not how this movie depicts him.
Wow! How times have changed. Now, it's easier to sit. Or cross the border. Dems will take care of you. And blame. Don't worry, it will change.
What I didn't like about this movie is Potter never receives any punishment or comeuppance for his evil misdeeds.
I'm sure lots of folks feel this way.
Frank Capra received hate mail about that for years.
Every town in Britain and the United States todayis basically pottersville
Pretty much so
👍
One of my all-time favourites. During the scene in Potter's office that starts here around the three-minute mark, just before George sits in the oversized chair, I'm sure I've seen a version in which Potter says, "Sit down, George", but you don't hear it in this clip, nor in my so-called collector's edition DVD. The brief clip where Potter says, "A child or two comes along, and you won't even be able to save the ten. Now, if this young man of twenty-eight was some common, ordinary yokel, I'd say he was doing fine.” has also been cut from my DVD (in other words, the scene goes directly from '...if you skimp' to '...but George Bailey is NOT a...'), although it can be heard here. Can't understand why on earth that's been edited.
Inbred
....frittering his life away playing nursemaid to a bunch of garlic eaters
We all now want to be potter or to work for potter or to be Sam wainwright
All time favorite movie. Perfectly cast. You couldn't find a more evil character than Mr Potter. And good Ole lovable George is about as good a protagonist as your gonna get. And Mary was breathtaking to say the least. And who could forget Clarence. We all have guardian angels just like him. Believe it. Uncle Billy is that family member that keeps things fun and silly. A perfectly orchestrated film about love and charity and pride and greed. A true David and Goliath tale for the ages. God bless you brothers and sisters in Christ♡
Fantastic villain moment, he is just so slimy and seductive. He makes great use of the world rewarding the selfish and the clever to make his case.
FYI: That $20K salary Potter offered George would be over $400K in today's money.
It's interesting. Nobody in the movie smokes CIGARETTES. There are several scenes including this one where the characters smoke CIGARS and in another scene George Bailey smokes a PIPE. I guess since this movie is geared towards kids, they may have felt that having characters smoke cigarettes was bad. However, we all know that Santa and Frosty the Snowman smoke a pipe and big wigs smoke cigars. I guess they felt that the movie would be favored better is the smoking was with cigars and pipes instead of cigarettes which nobody today seem to like.
The last part at 7:47 reminds me of Home Alone
Potternomics 😂20,000 dollars a year oh boy oh boy!
Well, it was the 1930's and 1940's . A rather big difference compared to now.
@@victordonavon292 Thank you Captains Obvious!! Can I sign up for your freakanomics course!
@@TheTrumpmancometh2024 Kid, you are aware that there is no need to behave like a jerk with name calling, sarcasm, and yelling in an infantile tantrum?
@@victordonavon292 Are you trying to call me a Liberal?? Did I hurt your feewings poor baby!
@@TheTrumpmancometh2024 Why are you throwing a tantrum? Projecting much?
7:49 Non, attendez un peu. Il est inutile d'attendre 24 heures et je n'ai aucun conseil à demander. C'est tout décidé, je sais ce que j'ai à dire : c'est non, non, en aucun cas.
AND IT GOES FOR YOU TOO! lol
7:40 What actors. The two could have been up for Oscars. Watch the SNL parody of this where they get back at Potter.- with Dana Carey as George, Dennis Miller, etc and Jon Lovitz as Potter.
Thing was that in the original script, Potter was going to be visited by Clarence and shown 5 years into the future if he didn't change his ways. Bailey Bros and Loan Company moves into his original bank. When Potter demands to know what happened to his bank and why George's savings and loan company is there, Clarence explained that he lost that during the town's successful lawsuit of him. He was forced to sell his house and his possessions to pay for the expensive reparations he's caused his town with his cruelty. Potter is later taken to his former mansion, now another affordable housing unit and park. Finally, Clarence takes Potter to his future self where he has been living alone in the former Potter's Field Slums. He expresses remorse for what he did to his town and it's far too late. Potter feels compassion for his future self as he dies alone. For the first time, he saw what it was like to have no one care for him in his town because of the terrible upbringing his parents made him endure. Potter finds himself feeling remorseful for his terrible behavior to everyone. He begs Clarence to give him another chance. At first, he refuses Potter's pleas explaining he deserved it. He doesn't give up and finally Clarence gives him one. However, he tells Potter that he must uphold it at all costs. If he betrays it once, this would be the road to his future and Clarence will not help him out. Potter makes good on his 2nd chance, returns the money to George and apologizes for his earlier behavior. When he asks what changed Potter's mind, he simply mentions they got a good friend who made him see the error of his ways. That friend is Clarence who gains his wings after saving George from a terrible mistake and reforming Potter.
As Potter says, "that takes some doing" when he states George had beaten him. Turning down a job offer like this also takes some doing because more people would have accepted for the money. George never tells anyone about this meeting either.
Charles Lane (seen at 3.01) was born to play mean-spirited characters and had his last role in 2006, the year that he died at 101. He had a 70-odd year acting-career.
The attorney says that the new developments in Bailey Park used to be Potter's Field. A potter's field is where convicts or unknown bodies (John/Jane Doe) are buried. And Potter disregards a call from Congressman Carter Glass (D-VA), who was also a state Senator and a Secretary of the Treasury. He died during the shooting of the film.
Barrymore is my favorite villain of all time. He's magnificently evil. He also talked Stewart into taking the role.
That many will take - what the Spider will spin...Jesus was also tempted by the devil..be on guard -God bless America....did someone ask who was George Bailey ...peace
For a guy whose pulling down less than $2,400 a year, 20 grand is some serious coin...
Others would have accepted this offer, but George has integrity and street smarts. The offer sounded wonderful to him, but then his sense kicked in when he shook Potter's hand. It was like he was wiping off some sort of disease there.
@@ddmck1972 Most if not all our political class take that handshake and have Potters character as well.
Potter is just like Satan. He flatters us, appeals to our insecurities and man’s natural inclination for the want of wealth, power and comfort. He promises to give these things. Then before you realize it, he owns you.
"...(H)e owns you" : that's what an out-of-reach British billionaire (with superyachts,etc.,being the asset-stripping owner of (now-closed-down-) department-store chains) told one of his lowly British employees whose job, pension and future had been snatched away through his slimy machinations: "I OWN YOU!" He's just one of the latter-day Potters who own (and often install) the political dummies who are rubber-stamped into office by the obliging, ignorant electorates.
This is the nightmare I am seeing…
I can't tell you how much I love this movie! "Playing nursemaid to a lot of garlic eaters." Classic!
Potter is your typical capitalist. He gets rich on the backs of the poor. He grows comfortable on the poor's sweat and blood. I'm surprised this film didn't break out into another Revolution, French style. This is what the French Revolution was about: Madame Defarge was growing sick and tired of the poor suffering at the hands of the Potters of the French Revolution. And she would have owned Potter.
'Americans are always a couple of drinks away from believing that THEY can be millionaires!' (a quote from somewhere).
Funny though that everyone wants to come to America, because capitalism has the effect of improving lives. Think Henry Ford.
@@None-zc5vg Except a lot of people do become millionaires and they by and large don't have to cheat or steal as you'd assume, to do it. Read Millionaire Next Door by Dr. Thomas Stanley and Everyday Millionaire by Chris Hogan.
2021: President Joe Biden vs Henry F. Potter: Ding, ding, ding, ding, ding!!!!!!!! President Joe Biden beats Henry F. Potter to the ground. President Joe Biden wins!!!!!!!!!
There's something sinister about Potter's voice. Like I wouldn't want to meet him at NIGHT.
You'd never encounter the real-life 'Potters', who cause a lot more misery than the small-time 'cartoon' one created in this picture.
I wouldnt want to meet him anytime,a big time swidler
Can someone explain what Mr Potter's rent collector was saying?? That George was selling cheap homes or something like new builds and it was stopping Potter from renting out properties to people?
Pretty much. Potter's losing money because the people who are now living in Bailey Park were at one time living in Potter's Field paying him rent. And more and more people are leaving his rental property to own houses in Bailey Park.
I think he's also saying the homes have gained value from being properly maintained by their owners, and from it being a neighborhood of mostly owners (there's a community there with investment).
George should have demanded a 10 year contract with a massive buyout if fired. There must have not been sports agents back then.
Right on.....
beggin 4 life
8:13 George Bailey:"AND THAT GOES FOR YOU TOO!!"
Wonderful "sturdy little spider"..... The apple in Eden will always attract but wisdom speaks in its actions... Better a bread crust eaten in peace than...... Lovely... Bewitched 💝💝💝💝
Go Team Potter!
Why don't we see Potter in the alternate?
We already know that in the alternate universe he owns everything. Why else is the town renamed Pottersville? Do we really need to see Mr. Potter in the alternate universe?
@@melissacooper4282 We dont really I suppose. Just thought it was an odd in a world where he ran everything we never see him
We didn't need to see him since he was already evil in the normal timeline. How much worse could he already be after the town has a different name, is crime ridden, slum ridden, full of strip bars, and is infested with unfriendly people?
the ugly face of capitalism. Give me Socialism anytime
Capitalism without Compassion yes. Capitalism must always be tempered with consideration for one's fellow man. Without that it's a broken evil system.
Socialism becomes attractive - to many people - when the alternatives are untenable. This situation illustrates *one* of those untenable alternatives.
I suggest you move to China and work for a state owned company.
20K a year, the best house in town and all the other perks ........... and three years later, just as soon as Uncle Billy has to shut down the Building and Loan .... Potter plunges that knife right between George Bailey's shoulder blades. Grinning ear to ear as he does it .... So glad George recognized that "scurvy little spider's" plot ...
If Uncle Billy had been running the B&L after George accepted Potter's offer, it would have been shut down in three seconds due to his incompetence.
Barrymore made a great villian! Top of his game here!
the big short prequel!
You are about to see another revolution in America between the One World UN forces and those who do not want to give up their guns. A movement will start by the government to collect all the guns. This will start the confrontation. The One World people will try and remove as many of your army troops as possible out of the country. Then they will infiltrate the police forces with foreign police officers. The purpose is to get the police to collect the guns. Those in the police and National Guard will have to choose between fighting their own people or the foreign UN troops and foreign police. Once there is no more opposition, they will then try and force the Mark of the Beast chips on everyone. This will be the time to call on Jesus and He will have your angels lead to refuges of protection. Jesus does not ask you to take up weapons for defense, because Satan encourages this killing. Jesus does not condemn any one for self-defense but He encourages letting His angels fight your battles by blinding your enemies. You will be protected at Jesus' refuges from any killing, so there is no need to kill anyone. Know that these things will be going on around you even as you leave for hiding. Share all of your food and it will continue to multiply. Fear not all of this killing, but trust in Jesus' Word to protect your souls. Keep your sacramental on you for protection, and you will not need any other defense. Pray, much during this trial which will test your faith dearly.
You go Girl. Preach it !!!!!!!!!
the closest I've seen to George is Bernie Sanders. Bernie for President !!
@@HenryBSilver Considering Bernie bowed out of the presidential race, that's unlikely to happen.
George has a spine, Bernie does not. Don’t insult George Bailey like that.
Then you need new fucking glasses pal
Haslam and his family are crooks.
