NEW YORK: New York’s largest police union has demanded a boycott of Quentin Tarantino films after the Oscar-winning director protested against the deaths of unarmed suspects at police hands.

“It’s no surprise that someone who makes a living glorifying crime and violence is a cop-hater, too,” said Patrick Lynch, president of the Patrolmen’s Benevolent Association.

“It’s time for a boycott of Quentin Tarantino’s films,” he said.

Tarantino’s latest movie “The Hateful Eight” — about bounty hunters in Wyoming after the American Civil War — will premiere in the United States on Christmas Day.
