Liam Neeson

A sickening read but admire his honesty. whole purpose of his story is to admit how wrong he was.
 
Probably something he should have kept to himself. Why would you share that with the media?

This is the most amazing thing about the whole story.

He's brought up this anecdote to promote his latest film being about revenge.

How could he think that sharing this with the media would be a good thing or that was the place to do it?
 
I'm not saying there needs to be a huge pile on over this or that he needs to be permanently blacklisted. I just think it's wrong for that story to be thrown out there and for it to go unchallenged. I don't think something that serious should be passed off as "he was messed up back then but it's ok now". The idea that he spent a fortnight stalking a black neighburhood with the intention of killing a black person is so off the scale. It goes beyond something that can be passed off as one of those shitty things we've all done and have gone on to regret. It's seriously fucked up.

If it is like you suggest, and he's brought it up as part of a wider conversation we're having about race in society, then maybe there is space for that anecdote (providing it's addressed properly). It just doesn't seem like that's what he was doing though. He's told the story at a press junket promoting his film about revenge. I think a bit more thought should have gone into how throwing that out there might make different people feel. I think he's more focused on it being a demonstration of his own personal growth.

I’m not trying to pass it off as that.

His close friend was raped and he lost the plot and is admitting his mistakes decades later.

My point on us doing something we regret is that we do that without being in a situation he was.

No one is condoning it, especially Liam himself but the witch hunt is over the top.
 
Asking what colour the guy was is disturbing.

Clearly has racist thoughts so fuck him.

Was he in Chicago with JussieSmollett recently?

I don’t understand why he mentioned it. Seems a self inflicted head wound that was unnecessary. Can’t see it working out well for him.
 
As a coloured person, fair play to him. He's admitted his mistakes, learnt from it and should be used as an example that people can change. There IS a positive spin on this IMO, he should get his PR team to get to work immediately.
