Jim Carrey: I Never Wanted to Take Your Guns Away
Celebrity Newsie ^ | 04/03/2013 | Jim Carrey Op-Ed

Posted on 04/03/2013 7:13:05 AM PDT by SeekAndFind

I disagree wholeheartedly with individuals who say that there are just too many guns available in the market to regulate and that extra gun laws is not going to make a difference. trade must begin someplace. i am beautiful certain that no worthwhile undertaking has ever been finished and not using a starting and lowering gun violence in the united states is a worthwhile pastime.

These mass shootings and day by day body counts to your native information are bad tragedies. The utter devastation that must be persisted by means of the victims’ families is unfathomable. These horrific occasions are additionally an invite for us to develop into extra civilized and to take care of our dependancy and entitlement to violence. to not shut our eyes and ears and scream at those with a unique opinion than ours to “fuck off and return to Canada.” i will gladly go back and seek advice from Canada as i’ve many friends and loved ones there. i’m so happy with that u . s . and the whole thing it can be given to me, but i’m also a naturalized American citizen and i have been bringing as so much pleasure as i can to individuals on this u . s . for 30 years. I care deeply about our future and i feel it’s my responsibility as a citizen to do the whole thing in my energy to make this a better position.

for individuals who say i am a hypocrite as a result of i’ve an armed bodyguard, lets make one factor clear: nobody in my rent is allowed to carry a large magazine and no person IS ASKING any person to give up THEIR proper TO undergo hands, although it is in the vested pursuits of folks that revenue with the aid of gun sales to make it appear so. it’s just the kind of palms, the easy get admission to and the way with which to result in large devastation to just right and innocent folks that i’m hoping we will restrict. it can be the standard of mercy, the tiniest spark of empathy that i know lives in every person of us that I are looking to ignite in you.

And to the bullies who will try to marginalize and discredit me through pronouncing, “Shut up, you might be just an actor,” while they brag about what a really perfect president the ACTOR Ronald Reagan used to be, who threaten me with the loss of life of my performing occupation and much worse, I say SO BE IT! How shallow do they suspect i’m? i might trade my money, my fame, my popularity and legacy if there have been the slightest likelihood of preventing the agony of some other Columbine, Virginia Tech, Aurora, or Sandy Hook fundamental school. I ask you, really, what method of human being would not?

i have been aghast at the degree of hatred heaped upon me, my household and the folks I work with over a mere distinction of opinion on this problem. most likely my phrases were slightly harsh on the onset, but calling somebody a “Motherfucker” is some distance completely different than wishing them to die. it is shocking to look this concerted effort to brutally intimidate anyone who speaks of a compassionate compromise.

These thugs, though menacing, are a minority however they are going to have their manner if just right individuals don’t step ahead now and make a difference. each American has the right to speak their thoughts. each American has the appropriate to bear hands. however it’s up to each American to draw the road in terms of the type of weapons which are considered a cheap way of self-protection.

no person is allowed to personal a bazooka. In a movie theater an assault rifle with a a hundred-round drum journal can result in simply as so much injury.

So do not just take a seat there and do nothing. Contact your representatives and let them be aware of that their jobs depend upon change. It is not going to all the time be any person else’s kids within the line of fireside.

The time is now. LET YOUR coronary heart BE HEARD.

OK, at least that was coherent.

It's funny, but not surprising, that he's appalled by conservatives responding to his profanity with profanity.

For those who say I'm a hypocrite because I have an armed bodyguard, lets make one thing clear: No one in my employ is allowed to carry a large magazine

What a dumbass. That's right, Jim. Do your part.

If this is for real, he's schizophrenic. Or, to those of us without a PhD in Psychology, he's nuts.

Good for him that he's rich as hell, so he's merely regarded as 'eccentric'.

This reads like the Zodiac killer wrote it.

His legacy? What, the Cable Guy?

Drug abuse and addiction in ravaging our society. It may be that Carrey is but another victim of it. The dude's behavior is irrational and, by the looks of this article, his thinking is not even close to clear.

This is what he said in the Huffington Post article:

No one in my employ is allowed to carry a large magazine and NO ONE IS ASKING ANYONE TO GIVE UP THEIR RIGHT TO BEAR ARMS, though it is in the vested interests of those who profit by gun sales to make it seem so. It’s just the type of arms, the easy access and the means with which to cause massive devastation to good and innocent people that I hope we can limit. It’s the quality of mercy, the tiniest spark of empathy that I know lives in every one of us that I wish to ignite in you.

Wow...the comments at the linked site are very telling. They say a lot about our current "state" of the Union. Here's one...

...How despicable that so many are so fanatical that their response to a different position is character assassination, name calling, or worse, threats of violence.

Do they not even realize their hypocrisy? These same folks had much worse to say about Sarah Palin and her family, repeatedly.
