The U.S. government recently erected a statue of Floyd in downtown New York. It is true that Floyd was the victim of racial discrimination or unfair justice, but he was a criminal with a previous record, not an outstanding talent, and presumably the main purpose of this statue is not to praise him, but to white Another rave on the left.

In recent years, the white and left forces in American society have become stronger and stronger, and they have penetrated into every industry, and the film industry can be said to suffer. More and more movies are marked with the blue label of white left, spreading their hypocrisy In this case, a conservative director like Eastwood seems to be very valuable, and the lament of this film is not only sung for Richard Jewell, but also for American society. Implies Eastwood's criticism and satire of hypocritical government agencies and hypocritical American media.

The protagonist of this film, Jewell, is just an ordinary security guard. He is fat, humble and cowardly, and has few friends. He lives with his mother, but he is kind and simple, patriotic and dedicated. And his patriotism and dedication made him abide by the basic rules and report the unknown package to the police, and also let him evacuate the people regardless of safety at a critical moment. Overnight, his heroic deeds of discovering a bomb and staying in danger turned him from an ordinary security guard into a security guard. A saint in the hearts of the American people, Push Hand is only a few media reports, and it is also a few media reports that made him fall from the peak to the bottom and become a sinner. Even if the FBI wants to confirm Jewell's criminal identity, they must adhere to the judicial principle of never suspecting a crime, but the news media ignores it and insists that he is a criminal, as if they have the irrefutable evidence of the case. It is ridiculous to say that dozens of people in the editorial department of a newspaper can even influence the opinions of millions of people. What is even more ridiculous is that a news media with such a great influence cannot even do basic justice. And the people of the United States have been deeply affected and blinded. These reports were originally just a summary of false or one-sided information picked up by editors for the sake of bloggers’ attention, and the female reporters in the film were even willing to talk to law enforcement for these information. personnel relationship. Eastwood's handling of these scenes in the film creates intense discomfort for the audience, but it makes us wonder if the media is truly doing justice in our day? The answer is clearly no.

Of course, the judiciary in the film is also on the opposite side of justice. They conclude that a person is a criminal because of the profile. And they are more stubborn, constantly looking for unfavorable evidence related to Jewell, but this is human nature, and although it is a serious mistake, we can still understand it. But they will do whatever they can to achieve their goals, eavesdropping, and extorting confessions. This is undoubtedly a violation of the constitution. If a law enforcement agency knows the law and breaks the law, will this society be a just society? And the news of the media is also leaked by law enforcement officers, which also violates the principle of justice. Such law enforcement agencies are undoubtedly harmful to society. of. And the behavior of law enforcement agencies to bully the soft and fear the hard is undoubtedly a violation of freedom and justice.

The irony is that the hero's savior is a lawyer, a profession we often associate with egoism and injustice. However, the lawyer in this film is a rare positive character in the film. He helps Jewell with advice for judicial justice and friendship, and this lawyer is quite Zola's character in "I Complain". For justice, he did not hesitate to offend government agencies. And not just for money, like the lawyers in the Simpson case. Among the media, the government, and lawyers, the most just and kind are lawyers. Isn't this a huge irony to American society.

Therefore, the lament of this film is not only sung for Jewell, but also for the American society poisoned by white leftists. It is also a great irony that there is no statue of the white hero Jewell, while the statue of the black criminal Floyd is erected high in the center of New York. For the American society that was increasingly poisoned by the white left, Eastwood sang a mournful song, and also accused the white left forces that are increasingly rampant in the United States and even the world, and accused the American media that was the vanguard of the white left, and also praised the white left. Those simple, kind, patriotic, heroic American people. The clown is in the temple, the criminal is remembered and the hero is buried, this is the real sadness, so Clint Eastwood sang "Richard Jewell's Lament" for the hero.
