WATCH: Julianne Moore, Jennifer Aniston, and Amy Schumer Make Video-Selfie Gun Control Ad with Obama
Brietbart.com ^ | 12/9/2015 | Awr Hawkins

Julianne Moore, Jennifer Aniston, and Amy Schumer were among a group of Hollywood celebrities who joined President Obama in a post-San Bernardino gun control video ad produced by Everytown for Gun Safety.

The three actresses were joined by other celebrities-including Kevin Bacon, Michael J. Fox, Sofia Vergara, Sarah Silverman, Ty Burrell, and Nick Offerman-each of whom take turns looking into the camera to say, "We can end gun violence." No one explains how to end it, but they take turns saying the words and, at times, repeat the sentence over and over together.

Obama takes time to say, "When we come together, Americans can do anything."

Film director Spike Lee also appeared in the post-San Bernardino gun control video, as did gun control proponent Shannon Watts and the Reverend Al Sharpton.

But the problem these celebrities and activists face is that the gun control measure of choice-expanded background checks-is already the law of the land in California. Yet such checks were impotent to stop the attacks. Obama and others have tried to distract from this failure by pushing to add the no-fly list to background checks, in essence pretending the checks are not as thorough as they should be until the no-fly list is included. However, on December 4, CNN reported that San Bernardino attackers Syed Farook and Tashfeen Malik were not on “any list” pertaining to potential terrorists in the US. So the addition of the no-fly list would not have stopped them from legally acquiring guns.

Now what? Should we add gun registration? California already has that. Should we add magazine capacity limits? Many areas of California have that. Should we add a focus on getting guns away from the mentally ill? California already has a program to confiscate guns from those barred from gun possession for mental or criminal reasons.

Who are Julianne Moore and Amy Schumer? Maybe I’m better off for not knowing. Self-important celebrities usually command a gnat-sized amount of my interest.

I bet all three of these dingbats are pro-abortion as well.

They could care a less about innocent blood being spilled.

Ok, you girls and ‘guys’ first. Disarm your private security teams and then we can talk. Or, not.

Disappointed in Nick Offerman.

He played a sympathetic libertarian character on TV and said that he shared the character's libertarian tendencies in real life.

I would have expected the rest of these clowns to display this servile behavior.

Compare side-by-side pictures of Amy Schumer and Ben Rothlisberger.

Separated at birth...or brother/sister?

Just kidding, but they sure do look alike, even down to the fat a...uh, I mean, the similar body type and build.

They would probably support a bill by Sheldon “Bravo Sierra” Whitehouse that would call for the beheading of all who cherish free speech on the topic of science.

"We can end gun violence." No one explains how to end it, but they take turns saying the words and, at times, repeat the sentence over and over together.

This is a tried and true tactic used by leftist agitators everywhere.

They actually have a name for this method. Something like "Call out, repeat", IIRC. It's not designed to change minds but to consolidate supporters to their cause and make them feel part of an accepted group.

For 0bama to use celebrities and this tactic is nothing new.

The fact that "they" apparently think it is an effective tactic says a lot about the them and who they believe they can reach with this message.

Actors—is there anything they don’t know?

They make a living by pretending to be someone else.

So, sure I listen to professional pretenders. /s

Useful idiots.

Yeah, I get all my political views from hollywood celebrities.

I’m being sarcastic but unfortunately some folks really do get all their ideas from Bouncy and Sira Smiley.

In Hollywood, no one is required to make sense.

And, for that matter, it’s the same in Washington these days.

I see big breasted Sofia Vegara is in the video. She would be singing a different tune if she had no security and one of her fans tries to turn fantasy into reality.
