While standing in front of a poster of himself brandishing a firearm in "Taken 3," actor Liam Neeson offered condolences for the victims of the recent terror attacks in Paris, then launched into a profanity-laced tirade against gun ownership in the United States, Breitbart.com reported Monday, citing Gulfnews.com. According to Neeson, gun ownership in America is "a (bleeping) disgrace."
"First off, my thoughts and prayers and my heart are with the deceased, and certainly with all of France, yesterday," he said. "Ive got a lot of dear friends in Paris. He then reportedly linked the attack to gun ownership in America.
Theres too many (expletive deleted) guns out there, he said. Especially in America. I think the population is like, 320 million? Theres over 300 million guns. Privately owned, in America. I think its a (expletive deleted) disgrace. Every week now were picking up a newspaper and seeing, Yet another few kids have been killed in schools.
"Lets not get into it," he added when asked if the issue extends to police responsibility. "Lets put it this way: I think a light has been shone on the justice system in America, and its a justifiable light.
Breitbart's AWR Hawkins said Neeson apparently overlooked the fact that France is "rich in gun control," but all of the country's laws were unable to stop the brutal killings in Paris. Initially, reports said, French officers responding to the scene of the attack were forced to retreat because they were unarmed. Officers in Paris are given the option to carry firearms, TPNN said, but many apparently do not.
The Washington Post said that unlike the United States, French citizens do not have a right to keep and bear arms.

What is it about hollywood make believe people that makes them think they have valuable political opinions. They live in a fantasy world and make their living playing make believe. How is that supposed to make them have political wisdom. Rich spoiled morons who live in a fantasy world is who they are.
He is a foreigner making a living in our country.
I invite him to go be bunkies with Polanski and see how his career goes from there.
they all know they’ll never work in Hollywood if they don’t take an anti Christian, Marxist viewpoint. don’t blame him.
That is one dumb mick, right there.
"Stay off this stuff....*mimes drinking*....That's the curse of you people."
Neeson, you drunken bogtrotter—sober up then try and focus.
I’m surprised he hasn’t made an equally stupid remark about banning skis. What a moron. He just made my personal no see list. Eff him.
“Actors! Is there anything they don’t know”?
I think we should blame the Chinese. They invented gunpowder.
It’s going to stay that way, Mr. Irrelevant. Embrace the suck.
“banning skis”
His wife fell while skiing, hit her head, went into a coma and died.
Maybe Neeson is lonely and bitter. Or maybe he just needs work.
Attacking 1. the “religious right”, 2. guns, and/or 3. Sarah Palin, is how they let the rest of Hollyweird know that their dance card has some openings.
Silly actors.
They don’t really believe the s*** that drops from their lips: “Damn the Chinese for inventing gun powder and chop suey ... and damn that giant Cloverfield sea creature for beating up the Statue of Liberty!”
Exactly why he became an actor in the first place? No brains.
That's some logic huh?
Hollywood, celebrities, and the news media are the enemy of freedom and the enemy of the American people.
Boycott the news media , boycott hollywood and boycott all media. all of these are almost all liberals/democrats/marxists all of them
I see his point. Americans have guns so the mudslimes have to pull their crap in other countries.
It’s not the guns, it’s the people who use them. In the case of the United States, it is black people. Hey Liam, should we get rid of the black people?
Thought so . . .
How is 300M guns too many for 320M people?? These libs..
