(BEVERLY HILLS, Calif.) — Sylvester Stallone says that despite his “Rambo” image and new shoot-em-up film “Bullet to the Head,” he’s in favor of new national gun control legislation

Stallone supported the 1994 “Brady bill” that included a now-expired ban on assault weapons, and hopes that ban can be reinstated.

“I know people get [upset] and go, ‘They’re going to take away the assault weapon.’ Who … needs an assault weapon? Like really, unless you’re carrying out an assault. … You can’t hunt with it. … Who’s going to attack your house, a [expletive] army?”

Perhaps the govt. should tax the violent gun ridden movie makers and stars a tidy sum for every movie they made glorifying violent, illegal use of guns. 90%, like they taxed wall street types, should be about right. Start with the stars that are anti 2nd amendment and made their living off glorifying violence.

Idiot. What about a handful of Obama’s sons breaking down your door a 3am?

What are you gonna do Stallone, dial and wait 20 minutes for the cops? Face multiple bad guys with a single shot “hunting” rifle that's locked and doesn't have ammo? Hide under your bed?

1. assault weapon is a political term
2. Yes you can hunt with AR’s and the like.
3. As to who may attack my house that would be the Government. Which is why the founders made the 2nd Amendment the 2nd one............

Typical idiot.
Yes, he is able to state his opinion.
Yes, he can have an opinion, whether he agrees with me or not.
However, if he hadn’t made a ‘very good’ living by ‘shooting and maiming’ others, it wouldn’t matter.

Much like Bill Cosby’s wife saying ‘White America wasn’t fair’.
Sorry Mrs C, while I am sure Bill would have been successful in ANY venue, the White Americans that paid to see his shows, watch his movies, buy products he sponsored etc turned you from a ‘Wealthy woman’, into a Woman of Substantial Means - coming from Bill’s success by the way.

Remember a line from one of his TV shows...”Theo said WE are rich”.
“Sit down Son, your mother and I are rich, even well off, BUT you happen to be fortunate enough to be born into this family. YOU have nothing”. (or something along that line)
