A true one of a kind.
Sure he's a liberal,and who in NYC and Hollywood ISN'T?
But the man walked the walk.
Gotta give him props.
O/T but WHY would a FDNY member EVER be a liberal?
He must have seen some s**t.
That's why most cops and FD are "conservative".
They've seen some s**t.
I do too, great actor. Loved Empire series.
As is Paul McCartney, John Fogerty, Jimmy Buffett, Al Pacino et. al.
I'm as rock-ribbed conservative as anyone you'll find, but I consider all of the above uber-geniuses in their craft, and I can't force myself to let their politics interfere with the joy and pleasure they've brought me since I was a teenager.
I think Pat Boone, Tom Selleck, Vince Vaughn and James Woods are great, too...but I'm not going to limit my appreciation to their work based solely on their political viewpoints.
