Hollywood begins massive assault on gun ownership (HUH?)
johnrlott.blogspot.com ^ | 11/26/2016 | John Lott

These movies and television shows that are pushing gun control make no attempt to treat the arguments on the other side seriously.

"Miss Sloane" -- focuses on a battle-hardened female lobbyist who gives herself the Herculean challenge of taking on the gun lobby

The movie opens on December 9th. Is already getting a huge amount of publicity simply because it has a political message that the liberal media likes. Just from the trailer it appears as if they make the NRA look like a bunch of evil guys, not people who really care about letting the most vulnerable people in society have a chance to defend themselves and their family.

Straight to dvd. Had no plans to see it in any case. Suggestion to John. Change title to "Hollywood steps up continuing assault on gun ownership.". Meanwhile, supposedly lines of folks waiting to buy weapons. A lot of them women.

They were expecting Hillary to win. This was going to be free lobbying for her first initiative.

At this point they are using money they collected under Obama to fund this propaganda. They don’t care about making money; that’s not the point

Okay….ban all guns in Hollywood productions. Can’t have the young ‘uns seeing those evil things. And while we’re at it, ban all rapes and murders in movies and TV productions. Follywood would collapse if such a ban existed.

This is what Network News did to the Tea Party. This stuff was all in place for a Hillary win.

I predict “A Hollywood Bomb” at the box office. What would be nice is a large crowd on line at sling arms.

Meanwhile, a wife beating felon like Sean Penn can carry a concealed weapon in CA. Supposedly he gave up his guns for Charleze Theron, but I bet he still has the license and has re-armed himself since she dumped him.

I am actually anxious to see them raise their stakes, going over the top, then turn around and give each other high fives. With little more efforts, they will be able to make Americans completely jaded. I want this because it will finally make people turn their backs on Hollywood en masse. Nothing hurts more than plummeting ticket sales and abysmal ratings. Their money needs to be drained. It is even better if they do it themselves.

Actually, the show is called Elementary, but it’s loosely based on Holmes and Watson. Johnny Lee Miller and Lucy Liu. I stopped watching when they started trashing gun ownership. They can suck it.

That reminds me. Whatever happened with that rapper who holed up in California while going crazy with the police surrounding the area?

***These movies and television shows that are pushing gun controls...***

Nothing new. They started doing this back in 1968 after Bobby Kennedy got murdered. The shows from the 1970s were viciously anti-handgun (Rifles were blessed by the 2nd Amendment, handguns weren't).

In the 1980s, rifles became the target and suddenly lost their 2nd Amendment coverage.

Her is an oldie from the past, 1964 by the most vicious anti-gun cartoonist! And this one is mild compared to his later work!

If I were hollywood executives, I’d opt for gun control too.

What blatant hypocrisy.

What with all the gun violence that sells movies, they are now against gun ownership?

Inquiring minds want to know.

I bet you’re right.
