Two Hundred Leave Free Postal Screening

Approximately 200 theatergoers walked out of a free Postal screening in New Jersey last Friday. While Hoboken Mayor David Roberts refused to attend the screening, stated that he did not like the film’s 9/11-style attack gag and added that it was “too soon to mock a plane going into the World Trade Center.” According to Boll:

Being politically correct, let’s say, the big studios are kind of overdoing it… I feel it is time now to make a really wild movie, something over the top… We don’t spare any group. We don’t want to hurt anybody but we want to break the rules… We want to make people think: What is a taboo? We want to make people start thinking about their own boundaries and rules.

It’s kind of curious of Mayor Roberts to say it’s “too soon to mock a plane going into the World Trade Center”. Does that mean eventually it will be okay to mock that? And if so, who will decide that? Rather subjective, no?
