THAT FULL SOLUTION, ALTHOUGH IT
FIXES, WON'T BE COMPLETE FOR
YEARS.
TONIGHT BUT IN TARANTINO IS
SPEAKING OUT FOR THE FIRST TIME
ABOUT HIS CONTROVERSIAL REMARKS
ON POLICE.
HE CALLED SOME OF THEM MURDERERS
BUT IT DOESN'T APPEAR HIS LATEST
STATEMENTS HAVE COOLED OFF.
DAVE BRYAN JOINS US MORE ON THIS
Reporter: 'S COMMENTS FIRED
BACKLASH FROM SEVERAL
COMMUNITIES.
THEY ARE ORGANIZING A MOVIE
BOYCOTT.
IN HIS FIRST INTERVIEW SINCE THE
REMARKS, HE DENIED HE IS A COP
HATER HATER AND ACCUSES HIS
CRITICS OF SLANDERING HIM.
I AM A HUMAN BEING WITH A
CONSCIENCE.
WHEN I SEE MURDER, I CANNOT
STAND BY.
Reporter: BUT TARANTINO WAS
FIRED UP WHEN HE SPOKE TO
PROTESTERS IN NEW YORK WHO
MARCHED THROUGH THE CITY STREETS
TEN DAYS AGO IN PROTEST OVER
RECENT USE OF POLICE FORCE.
IN SOME CASES CHILDREN AND
OTHERS WHO CRITICS CHARGE WERE
NOT PUTTING UP ANY RESISTANCE.
THIS IS WHAT TARANTINO SAID
ABOUT THE POLICE OFFICERS IN
THOSE KILLINGS.
I HAVE TO CALL THE MURDERER
THE MURDERER AND I HAVE TO CALL
THE MURDERERS THE MURDERERS.
THESE SHARP WORDS CALLED FOR
A BOYCOTT OF HIS NEW MOVIE, THE
HATEFUL EIGHT WHICH IS SCHEDULED
TO BE RELEASED ON CHRISTMAS DAY.
NOW FOR FOR THE FIRST TIME SINCE
THE RALLY, HE IS PICKING OUT
TELLING THE L.A. TIMES HIS
CRITICS ARE MISREPRESENTING HIS
REMARKS AND SLANDERING HIM.
ALL COPS ARE NOT MURDERERS HE
TOLD THE TIMES I NEVER SAID
THAT.
I NEVER EVEN IMPLIED IT.
HE ACCUSES THOSE CRITICS OF
SKIRTING THE REAL ISSUE AND
OFFERED NO APOLOGY.
I'M NOT BEING INTIMIDATED.
FRANKLY IT FEELS LOUSY TO HAVE A
BUNCH OF POLICE MOUTHPIECES CALL
ME A COPY TO HER.
I'M NOT A COP HATER.
THIS IS A MISREPRESENTATION.
THAT IS SLANDEROUS.
THAT IS NOT HOW I FEEL.
I'M NOT TAKING BACK WHAT I SAID.
WHAT I SAID WAS THE TRUTH.
HIS RESPONSE DOESN'T APPEAR
TO BE CICE MOUTHPIECES CALL
ME A COPY TO HER.
I'M NOT A COP HATER.
THIS IS A MISREPRESENTATION.
THAT IS SLANDEROUS.
THAT IS NOT HOW I FEEL.
I'M NOT TAKING BACK WHAT I SAID.
WHAT I SAID WAS THE TRUTH.
HIS RESPONSE DOESN'T APPEAR
TO BE COOLING THINGS DOWN.
THEY SAY TARANTINO'S COMMENTS DO
DO NOTHING TO HEAL THE WOUNDS.
HIS WORDS WERE WE DIDN'T HEAR
AN APOLOGY.
WE HEARD HIM STICK BY HIS WORD.
NO, NOTHING HAS CHANGED.
NOTHING NOTHING HAS CHANGED AT
ALL.
WHAT WE EXPECT IS FOR THIS
NATION TO RISE UP.
LAW ABIDING CITIZENS TO RISE UP
AND DENOUNCE ANY OF HIS FILMS,
ESPECIALLY WHEN HE IS
PERPETUATING THIS ANTI- POLICE
RHETORIC.
Reporter: ON THE SAME DAY
TARANTINO TALK TO THE TIMES,
CHARLIE BECK WEIGHED IN ON HIS
REMARKS AT THE PROTEST RALLY.
HIS MOVIES ARE EXTREMELY
VALUABLE.
HE HE DOESN'T UNDERSTAND
VIOLENCE.
UNFORTUNATELY HE MISTAKES USE OF
FORCE AS MURDER AND IT'S NOT.
Reporter: JAMIE FOXX SAID
THIS AT THE HOLLYWOOD FILM BOARD
ON SUNDAY.
QUENTIN TARANTINO KEEP
SPEAKING THE TRUTH AND TELLING
THE TRUTH AND DON'T WORRY ABOUT
NONE OF THE HATERS.
POLICE UNIONS AND
ORGANIZATIONS ACROSS THE COUNTRY
AND THEIR SUPPORTERS ARE
DETERMINED TO SHUT DOWN
TARANTINO'S MOVIES.
WE HAVE NEW YORK, WE HAVE
PHILADELPHIA WE HAVE CHICAGO.
WE HAVE NEW JERSEY AND THAT'S
JUST THE BEGINNING.
THERE ARE GOING TO BE POLICE
AGENCIES THROUGHOUT THIS COUNTRY
THAT WILL JOIN TOGETHER TO
BOYCOTT HIS FILMS.
TONIGHT THERE IS NO SIGN THAT
THE HEAT SURROUNDING THIS ISSUE
WILL BE DIMINISHING ANYTIME
SOON.
THIS WEEK, THE DEPUTY SHERIFF
