Alyssa Milano, Alec Baldwin, Amy Schumer Help Launch Anti-NRA Campaign

8:37 AM PDT 4/20/2018 by Katie Kilkenny

The new initiative aims to advocate for gun control and to chip away at the National Rifle Association's political influence.

Less than a month after March for Our Lives events swept through American cities to protest gun violence, a group of Hollywood stars including Alyssa Milano, Amy Schumer and Alec Baldwin have partnered with Parkland, Fla., students, activists and policy experts to launch a new initiative aimed at advocating for gun control and reducing the political influence of the National Rifle Association.

The No Rifle Association initiative (#NoRA) announced its formation and goals in a letter to NRA executive vp Wayne LaPierre on Friday. It was signed by over 130 celebrities and activists including Parkland shooting survivors David Hogg and Cameron Kasky, #MeToo founder Tarana Burke, Ashley Judd, W. Kamau Bell, Don Cheadle, Minnie Driver, Jon Favreau, Nathan Fillion, Jordan Horowitz, Jimmy Kimmel, Julianne Moore, Michael Moore, Patton Oswalt, Annabella Sciorra, Jill Soloway, Amber Tamblyn and Constance Wu.

"We’re going to shine a bright light on what you and your organization do to America. We’re going to make sure the whole world sees your bloody hands. We’re coming for your money. We’re coming for your puppets. And we’re going to win," the strongly worded letter announces.

The letter says the #NoRA movement will "rais[e] the voices of all victims of gun violence," citing as examples people from communities of color, which are disproportionately affected by gun violence, women who have survived domestic violence and children who have died in shootings. The letter also says that the organization intends to "counterac[t] the influence of NRA money in the political system."

Time to start a #noabortion as resistance against the politically powerful planned parenthood.

Also time to start a boycott Disney movement. Many of those actors and celebrities are employed by ABC, Disney or Marvel.

We’re coming for you Bob Iger.

Alyssa Milano was hot back in the day and before I knew about people's political persuasions.

In 1776 the British demanded that we surrender our guns. We shot them.

That is photoshopped to the point of uselessness.

She has done a couple of nude scenes in a few movies — she is cure but not like THAT.

“Amy Schumer”

Didn’t she just have a Movie open today which was already projected to be a big $ downgrade from her previous releases? This should help ticket sales. She is a Schumer, she is that dumb and out of touch. She isn’t getting any younger, and she is marginally funny at best. The fat, dumb, blonde schtick won’t carry her much further.
