Sean Penn stuns fans as he is pictured in NY POST roaming the streets of hurricane hit New Orleans -- armed with a shotgun!
Drudge Report
Wait'll you see the photo of him looking down the barrell.
Why is he even there? Why not just send money and leave the savin' to those that are trained.
Probably there liberating drugs trapped in New Orleans.
(CNSNews.com) - A Second Amendment group is criticizing what it called the "deafening" silence of the gun control lobby following the theft of two guns from the car of a Hollywood actor and peace activist.
The Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms said actor Sean Penn should be held liable for any crimes committed with either of two guns stolen from his car earlier this month while Penn was eating lunch in Berkeley, Calif.
"The silence from liberal gun control extremists is deafening," said Citizens Committee Chairman Alan Gottlieb in a statement. "Where are the traditional whines about irresponsibility in the Penn case? Why aren't the elitists demanding Penn's hide for not keeping better track of his guns?"
Berkeley police said a loaded Glock 9 millimeter semi-automatic pistol and an unloaded Smith & Wesson .38 caliber revolver owned by Penn were missing after the actor's car was stolen April 8. Police recovered the car, but the guns Penn had in it were stolen.
Characterizing the lack of response as a "double standard," Citizens Committee Communications Director Dave Workman said he believes Penn has "gotten the nod and a wink," from Hollywood, "even though he's got a couple of guns in his car. I don't know too many peaceniks who drive around fully armed like that."
Ironically, the theft occurred on the same day the Indiana Supreme Court ruled that gun owners must take "reasonable care" in safely storing their firearms, clearing the way for a lawsuit stemming from the 1997 murder of a police officer killed with a gun stolen from the home of the killer's parents.
"By that standard, if either of Penn's two stolen handguns is subsequently used in a crime, then Penn should be held responsible," said Gottlieb. "I fully expect Hollywood's liberal elite to demand he be prosecuted."

He would have been better off using that when he was in Iran to monitor the "elections."

I guess he got tired of only shooting his mouth off.
Hopes he's better with the homedefender than the boat...please someone hire this out of work actor he's making a nuisance of himself in the Big Easy....
"Awesome, Totally Awesome". He looks like he knows who he's after too.
So, he wore a flak jacket while bailing water with a Dixie Cup from the boat. Then he carries a shot gun while not wearing a flak jacket. This man is short a few Dixie Cups required for emergency bailing.
Hmmm, makes you wonder who's been shooting at the helicopters?
Seems, like Mr. Penn has a little prior history there.
Better still What in the hell is he doing in New Orleans AT ALL????
The "authorities" need to get that assclown out of the freakin' way.
First of all, Sean Penn probably does not even know how to fire that weapon. Accompanying Sean Penn with that shotgun is his personal photographer. Other than that, the weapon in Penn's hands serves no purpose!
The last time I saw him shooting off his mouth to the media, he was anti-war. That's a liberal for you!
I read this, I went to Drudge. Behold, there's an article there saying that CNN coached hurricane interviewees to "get angry."
Do you think any 9/11 interviewees were urged to get angry?
I am now getting angry.
Details and paperwork on Penn's gun permit for, among other things... a GLOK (sic). Yes, he really spelled it that way.

Did he finally realize that in an urban combat situation, his political views don't count as much as his being white? ;)
Muzzle down, finger off of the trigger. What am I missing here.
