Hollywood actor Matt Damon used a press conference in Australia over the Fourth of July weekend to discuss his desire for a massive confiscation of U.S. guns. “You guys did it here in one fell swoop [in 1996] and I wish that could happen in my country, but it’s such a personal issue for people that we cannot talk about it sensibly,” Mr. Damon said during a promotional engagement in Sydney for the movie “Jason Bourne.” The action star went on to say people get too “emotional” when it comes to “not selling AK47s to people on terror watchlists.” Mr. Damon also discussed the Dec. 12, 2012, massacre in Newtown, Connecticut, where 20-year-old Adam Lanza stole his mother’s legal weapons, killed her and then did the same to 20 children at Sandy Hook Elementary School. “Obviously, mass shootings aren’t going to do it. There have been so many of them at this point. Sandy Hook, when those children were murdered, if that didn’t do it, you know, I just don’t know. Maybe we just need to evolve further before we can have that conversation, I don’t know,” Mr. Damon said, the Sydney Morning Herald reported Sunday.

you should never watch another Damon movie ever again.

Pirating movies is the payback. Suck it Damon.

Never saw a Damon movie (or AFLAC). I knew they were a couple of ****s from Good Will Kuntzman.

Ah, that’s it.

This picture clearly shows evidence of Down’s Syndrome.

He really is a drooling half-wit.

Good thing dubbing was invented. Wonder what his real voice sounds like.

Actors are some of the most stupid, intellectually stunted idiots you know in school. They remain that way.

Doctors are nerds with poor emotional and social development, as adults they get a lot of money but remain what they were.

Class President was full of himself in high school and remain so as adults.

Why do we even listen to these people when we know what they are?

Well, he got that part right.

Except he needs to use a mirror

You are painting with a rather broad brush,I would say.

No one cares what Matt Damon thinks.

I’m pleased to say I have never wasted a dime watching any of Damon’s films, as for his latest ignorant spew, he’s a know-nothing, in the express lane to being a has-been.

I fart in his general direction.

All I am saying is the media quotes these actors about things unrelated to drama. People are what they are and I can include myself,

Damon is an actor, nothing more.

My comment about Class President was my utter disgust with meeting mine (who I kind of liked as a kid) as an adult. He was the most shallow, ashamed of his youthful home, pretentious ass I could imagine.

Hey Matthew.

You’re such a tough guy in the movies (and protected by all the armed guards).

Come out and try to take them yourself.

Effing pansy.

If you call yourself Conservative, you should never watch another Damon movie ever again.

No...if you wish to be entertained by this moron, then pirate the movie.

It robs him of all royalties, as well as the obviously stupid people that made the movie with him.

I will never step foot in a movie theater again.

Nor will I ever buy a movie off of any of the streaming services or pay-per-view.

If I can steal it by pirating, then so be it.

You think this limousine liberal cares about me?

Phffftt!

Why should I care about him?

Ain't I a low life?

Like you right, knucklehead.

You beat me to it! If he wants to take my gun, he should come and take it himself. The gutless pansy wants the police or military to do try to cash the check his filthy mouth wrote.

I agree with you on this one. I often wondered how these actors would like it if politicians published reviews of their movies.

OK, another Hollywood nobody, who just memorizes scripts, and has seen and done make believe killings as a living. Sadly, what we have already experienced in our country is only going to get more volatile. Its going to get worst before it gets better. Want to be a nice guy, and have a conversation? Go ahead, when you are done, they’ll kick your teeth in. Why? Because what we are going to face is evil, and you can’t be nice to evil. Evil devours the meek.
