It's a sad celebrity ritual. Tragedy strikes somewhere in the U.S., and a star uses Twitter to politicize it for their pet cause. 
Henry Winkler of Happy Days fame joined the club earlier today. 
The actor rushed to Twitter today after news broke that a shooting at the U.S. Navy Yard in Washington, D.C. left several people dead. Many details are still unknown, but that didn't prevent Winkler from assuming gun control would have prevented the shooting.

    Why does it feel like these mass shootings are orchestrated to promote more gun control?

    Henry Winkler was chosen to play Rush Limbaugh as the main figure of a TV sitcom created in 1994.
For some reason the show couldn’t tap into Rush’s 22 million listeners, I wonder why.

    Carrying guns is not permitted on military installations except for military police. This wonderful idea is a lingering courtesy of Bubba Clinton.

    Perfect opportunity for all the Hollywood Has Been’s to get their 15 seconds of camera time in hopes someone important sees them and remembers who they are.
 Is Mr Ed available for comment? We need to hear some good old Horse Sense. The braying of the jackass liberals is annoying.
