Brad Pitt Calls For Death Penalty For BP Execs After Oil Spill
Posted on Mon Aug 23, 2010 07:33 AM PDT
Brad Pitt has a very unusual suggestion on how to deal with execs responsible for the BP oil spill in the gulf -- the death penalty!
The actor, who appears in Spike Lee's new documentary about New Orleans, says in the film when asked about the situation, "I was never for the death penalty before – I am willing to look at it again.”
Pitt owns a home in the Southern city, as well as a foundation, Make It Right, dedicated to helping New Orleans residents attain affordable and sustainable housing following Katrina.
Lee's new film, If God Is Willing and Da Creek Don't Rise was intended on being an uplifting sequel to his HBO doc, When the Levees Broke, but the tone changed when disaster struck the area yet again.
And BP execs aren't the only ones being targeted in Lee's film. He also takes aim at the president.
Spike said, "I don't know why Obama ever trusted these BP guys! They would lie to their mothers. The thing we don't talk about is that 11 Americans lost their lives and it took seven weeks to invite their families to the White House. I'm not trying to bash my man, but that's a long time," the controversial director told GQ.
Lee also blames the slow response on "environmental racism," saying, "If this oil spill would have reached the Hamptons, Martha's Vineyard, Cape Cod, that [bleep] would have been fixed."
Think Brad will regret his response once the film comes out?
