Kurt Russell Drops Massive Truth Bomb About Gun Control
the Federalist ^ | Dec 11, 2016 | Federalist Staff

“If you think gun control is going to change the terrorists’ point of view, I think you’re, like, out of your mind,” Russell said. “I think anybody [who says that] is. I think it’s absolutely insane.”

Allowing people to carry guns for protection would curb violence more effectively than gun control because it forces violent individuals to think twice before physically harming someone else, he explained.

Transcript:

Russell: They can also make a bomb pretty easily. So what? They can also get knives and stab you. Whaddaya gonna do about that? They can also get cars and run you over. Whaddaya gonna do about that?

Wells: They didn’t kill the people in San Bernardino with cars.

Russell: But they’ve killed others that way, haven’t they? Yeah, yeah. Whaddaya gonna do? Outlaw everything? That isn’t the answer.

Wells: Just put some controls…

Russell: Put some controls? What, so the people, so the people who want to defend themselves can’t?

Wells: No, not so you can’t, just so the idiots can’t get hold of them [so easily], that’s all.

Russell: You really believe they’re not going to? Are you serious about that? What good will that…? Oh my God. You and I just disagree.

Come on Kurt. Get real. You know as well as the rest of us that if you have the font big enough on the “NO FIREARMS ALLOWED BEYOND THIS POINT!!!” signs, millions will be safe from terroists.

My favorite Disney kid actor. Did a good job as “Snake” and again as Wyatt Earp. Common sense-driven...Seems like an intelligent , straight-forward, no BS kind of guy. I guess he was a good ballplayer too. Maybe Trump could get him started at something with the ATF?

As much as I detest lefty “celebrities” spouting off about stuff, I am equally unimpressed when from the other side starts yammering.

Kurt is in the upcoming Guardians of the Galaxy movie. Coolness like his cannot be contained!

Noteworthy.

Good to know, once in a blue moon, some sense comes out of Hollyweird.

It is seldom that the left coast gets it right. Which is why I noted it. Voice. Wilderness.

His “yammering” was answering buffoonish questions from a reporter

Are you sure the actor in the two pictures you posted is Kurt Russell? The face is very familiar, perhaps one of Lloyd Bridges’ son Jeff? If it is Russell, my apologies. And what movie is it from, no matter whether or not it is Kurt Russell or Jeff Bridges?

Indeed. Because that has worked out so well every time that it has been tried.

His performance in “Miracle” should rank up there among the greatest of all time ... not so much on the merits of acting, but because he had to learn how to skate well enough to play a hockey coach!

I’m not sure if this will post the photograph of Kurt Russell I found. If it doesn’t, I shall appreciate receiving instructions on how to post photographs.
Thanks, G-F
