Douglas pushes for tighter gun control
02/12/2005 - 10:28:39
Fatal attraction star Michael Douglas is planning to lobby the US government for tighter gun control, because he's still haunted by rocker John Lennon's 1980 shooting death.
Lennon was murdered outside his New York City apartment building by Mark Chapman, and the event is one of the major reasons why Douglas wants to use his position as a United Nations Messenger of Peace to lobby for disarmament.
He says: "I was there the night John Lennon was shot, three blocks away. It left a lasting impression on me.
"It motivated me to do whatever I could to lobby for small-arms control."

Too bad John Lennon didn't have a AK-47, he'd still be alive Michael.
Why don't you go watch out-takes from Jewel of the Nile and STFU?

Memo to Michael Douglas:
Twice as many people die in avoidable swimming pool accidents as gun accidents. Why don't you try to outlaw pools first, and then move on to guns?

He is all for gun control as long as he doesn't have to follow the law.

Michael Douglas is a very deep thinker.
He understands that societies are safer when only the police and the military have guns.

For Michael Douglas threads it should be mandatory to have a MODO pic post.
For fairness.

Mega-hypocrite gun-grabber Michael Douglas and his Pretty Poison Psycho wife are defended by an army of automatic weapon-armed bodyguards.
Molon Labe, Michael, Moulon Labe!
