Disney CEO Bob Iger: Those of Us in Positions to Influence Laws, Shape Culture ‘Have an Extra Responsibility’ to Push Gun Control
breitbart.com ^ | 12/7/2022 | AWR Hawkins

Disney CEO Bob Iger attended a Sandy Hook Promise Benefit and referenced people in influential positions and suggested that those who shape culture “have an extra responsibility” to push gun control.

Sandy Hook Promise is the group with to whom country singer Tim McGraw donated concert proceeds for a gun control fundraiser in July 2015.

On April 16, 2015, Breitbart News pointed to McGraw’s planned participation in the fundraiser and he responded to the coverage by telling MSNBC’s Joe Scarborough, “I lead my life leading with my heart, I do the things that I can do and support the causes that I support, try to help in the areas where I can help, and I do that with my heart. If I have a decision to lead with my head or my heart, I’m going to lead with my heart every time.”

The Hollywood Reporter noted that Iger, Barack Obama, and actor Matthew McConaughey all gathered in New York Tuesday, where they honored the work of Sandy Hook Promise and continued the push for more gun control.

So, our self-anointed elites have a "responsibility" to guide us lowlies to the cattle cars. Isn't that so nice of them.

This groomer-promoting pantywaist can have that carved on his headstone.

Yes, when they are complicit in denying our rights- then they shouldn’t be as they are lifting themselves above inalienable rights, and the people suffer for it—

So...deprive people of their Constitutional rights, but push pederasty. What a noble goal for this responsible influencer. I wonder if Iger pedos around in a pink Hugo Boss uniform?

Walt Disney died with a reputation that will live on for centuries... Walt did his job and perused an amazing dream that has brought happiness to generations of children and to the young at heart. .

CEO Bob Iger wants to be a hero of the WOKE left and persue a path often the precursor to Government controlled takeover and genocide. Disarming the population... Look up the numbers Iger. The killings at Sandyhook are nothing compared to the powerless people of Russian, China, North Korea, Iran, Cuba, Germany etc etc etc.

The arrogance of the elite is astounding.

I want my plumber to fix my water pipes. That’s it. I don’t need him to lecture me on politics, etc. Fortunately my plumber is okay with that.

Same goes with Disney. Entertain me. Don’t lecture me.

Disney CEO and groomer Bob Iger can leave the United States if he doesn’t support inalienable rights.

The left can’t help themselves- they are driven to be all up in everyone else’s business- all the time- destroying everything decent because they, the left, are miserable angry people-

They suck. Their theme parks are boring, except for a few featured rides. All Walt’s great achievements are in the past. Now it’s formulaic pablum. Can’t be that people haven’t caught on yet.

Bingo Maybe all of us - worker - should lecture Bob Iger when his car is fixed, or his dog groomed, or his AC is fixed or if we know (better than him) how corrupt 'elites' should live and how dreadful they are... in short - send '50 illegals to a metaphorical Martha's Vineyard' every day. And to Bob Iger and his 'elite' friends every hour. We know how to be jerks about lifestyles we don't understand too. First - outlaw private security and gated communities.
