Country Star Faith Hill: NRA Needs to ‘Tell the Truth’ on Guns
breitbart ^ | AWR HAWKINS

Posted on 11/10/2017 5:27:52 AM PST by davikkm

In an interview for Billboard magazine, country singer Faith Hill spoke out in favor of gun control and said it is time for the NRA to “tell the truth” about guns. Speaking about last month’s Las Vegas mass shooting, in which guns were used illegally to kill innocent concert-goers, Hill referenced the doctors who treated those wounded in the attack, saying: “The doctors that [treated] the wounded, they saw wounds like you’d see in war. That’s not right. Military weapons should not be in the hands of civilians. It’s everyone’s responsibility, including the government and the National Rifle Association, to tell the truth.”

“We all want a safe country,” the “Wild One” singer added.

Her husband, Tim McGraw, reasserted his support for “common sense” gun control during the same interview, saying, “Look, I’m a bird hunter — I love to wing-shoot. However, there is some common sense that’s necessary when it comes to gun control.”

I’ll give you the exposed breast comment, but as for the jokes they went after everybody. Bernie, Hillary, The Pres., they were equal opportunity skewers, as it should be. The jokes were funny and tasteful, and delivered with no sense of malice or hatred. And yes they did go after O’Bama when he was president. Brad and Carrie do a pretty good job of being non partisan in the monologue. Country music on the other hand is not what it used to be, but they had a couple of groups on there Wednesday that weren’t half bad. Even Miranda Lambert’s song was backed by some serious steel, slide guitar.

The answer is to enjoy the music of the country music stars of the past, and boycott the new crop.

I saw commercials for this show in the runup to the telecast. The women looked slutty and the men looked like metrosexuals. Had it not been for the cowboy hats, I would not have been able to tell it was a Country Music show.

“When was the last time a member of the NRA was accused of a mass shooting?”

As far as I know, a mass shooter has never been identified as a Republican. So, instead of controlling guns maybe we should control Democrats.

What do you think about that, Faith?

Tim & Faith need to hold a ‘Guns Are Bad!’ concert...in downtown Chicago, Detroit, Milwaukeestan, The Twin Cities, Philly, L.A., etc.

Until then? STFU.

Corporations pick who will be stars based on looks and outlook. It’s no surprise the ones they like are liberals like Hill or fake christians like Carrie Underwood.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with the Bill of Rights. Nothing. It is as perfect a document can be up to the Ten Commandments.

The problem lies with the misapplication of rights. Having free speech doesn’t give you the right to lie. Freedom to won firearms doesn’t give you the right to murder.

These are misapplication of the amendments and we already have laws that prohibit misapplication of amendments.

That is the truth. That is what needs to be stated every time a moron with a microphone pipes up to pervert the Constitution.

Country music is outing itself and will quickly lose fans. They have failed to learn from the NFL.

Faith Hill is talking with her Emotions— NOT REASON. Truth is the US Army trained us -event he idiots who had NEVER fired a rifle—as to the Truth about firearms —They are a tool Nothing more-nothing less >They are NEither good nor bad.They are no different than a hammer,a shovel, a goad(that pointed stick young boys use to get Oxen to move.)-I add ( no different than the stretch Limmo used by celebrities and wannabe rock stars ) We do not have a gun problem except in those who desire to disarm and enslave a people.We have a heart problem—and Country singers ought understand Heart Problems-they sing about such often enough. We have a nation turned from its foundation as a Christian Nation—and Country Music used to sing about Christian Faith. We have a Nation turned from the founding principles of Morality and Religion. And it will always require a good man with a gun to end the massmurderdone by abad man —with a gun.And that’s the TRUTH about Guns Faith Hill.

I guess someone also needs to tell the truth on sissors, hedge clippers, rasors, potato pealers, piano wire, etc., etc., etc, since all have been used to kill people. But since it involves truth we will never hear it from this yokel family or anyone in the liberal media.

“Look, I’m a bird hunter — I love to wing-shoot...

Every liberal gun-grabber shoots a shotgun and praises it as a more civilized weapon. Obama, SecState Kelly, and former VP Biden are also favor the shotgun. Biden suggested we all give up our ARs and start threatening and intimidating with a shotgun. I think not.

What has to end is liberals inciting their godless and apostate followers to murder and maim their political opponents whom they vilify as not worthy of any liberties protected by law.
