Oscars: Celebrities Push Gun Control Surrounded by a Wall of 500 Armed Officers
Breitbart ^ | March 4, 2018 | Jerome Hudson

Posted on 03/04/2018 3:07:12 PM PST by EdnaMode

The Los Angeles Police Department will deploy 500 officers to wrap the Dolby Theatre in multiple barriers of armed security for the 90th Academy Awards on Sunday night, an event at which several of Hollywood’s most celebrated stars will actively push for more gun control in America. “We have these concentric rings of security that start in the middle and radiate outward,” said LAPD Cmdr. Blake Chow, the man tasked with overseeing the massive operation. “We have a lot of officers in fixed posts and foot beats keeping an eye on the event.”

Several celebrities plan to wear orange lapel pins on the red carpet and during tonight’s ceremony in support of gun control and the Michael Bloomberg-founded gun control advocacy group Everytown for Gun Safety.

Indeed, there will be road closures to prevent people breaching a security perimeter made up of a wall of ten-foot gates and barricades, FBI agents, and firefighters. Police helicopters will be buzzing above and private security guards from Security Industry Specialists will be inside the Dolby Theater.

Gary Cooper was a big-time hunter. Was a friend of Ernest Hemmingway.

Leigh Anne Touhy:

“No, you hear me, #!*&@!. You threaten my son, you threaten me. You so much as cross into downtown, you will be sorry. I’m in a prayer group with the D.A., I’m a member of the N.R.A. and I’m always packing.”

One of the best lines EVER in a film.:) If any of the victims of the Pervs of Hollywood would have had a CC and had made it known to the Perps, there most likely wouldn’t have been a need for a “MeToo” movement.

Yeah. The old wind-up kind with a key in his back.

They are so wrapped up in themselves that they can’t even see the hypocrisy.

Like that idiot Sheriff David Israel said, “Lions don’t care what sheep think.” Although, in this case, “pussies” is a more apropos term.

“Oscars: Celebrities Push Gun Control Surrounded by a Wall of 500 Armed Officers”

But THEY are VERY IMPORTANT. You are...well...just another person. They may not say this aloud but this is what their actions state.

...and the LAPD who pulled out and hunkered down in their bunkers as Los Angeles was burned looted and sacked in the Rodney King riots.

they will turn out to protect the jesters and clowns but if the real thing goes down do not expect the LAPD to protect you or your family. They are cowards and political tools , all they are good for is writing traffic tickets

The entire LAPD barely held of two shooters, they went in to a panic and went to B&B gun store begging for bazookas .....they couldnt hit the broad side of a barn, if there is a guy with a 22 pistol they will need an M59MPC because their balls will be choking them : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dtyxCiPpkHQ

Why aren’t the
“homeless” to be honored and admitted for free? Given special recognition?

Given an opportunity to crap anywhere, especially on red carpets?

I mean, c’mon Hollyweird . . show your stuff
