Kurt Russell Drops Massive Truth Bomb About Gun Control
the Federalist ^ | Dec 11, 2016 | Federalist Staff

[snip]

“If you think gun control is going to change the terrorists’ point of view, I think you’re, like, out of your mind,” Russell said. “I think anybody [who says that] is. I think it’s absolutely insane.”

Allowing people to carry guns for protection would curb violence more effectively than gun control because it forces violent individuals to think twice before physically harming someone else, he explained.

That wouldn’t have made any difference since apparently there’s video of Dick Cheney planting dynamite in all the support columns during construction of the WTC. Or something. Truthers. What don’t they know?

Wells: Just put some controls…

Russell: Put some controls? What, so the people, so the people who want to defend themselves can’t?

Wells: No, not so you can’t, just so the idiots can’t get hold of them [so easily], that’s all.

Russell: You really believe they’re not going to? Are you serious about that? What good will that…? Oh my God. You and I just disagree.

Really, that's pretty good!

If you like Kurt and want to laugh, watch it . FUNNY.

The most logical argument against gun control is the war on drugs.

Anyone with a scintilla of knowledge knows that drug prohibitions don’t work. The nation is still flooded with Cocaine, Marijuana, Heroin, Meth, and all manner of other illegal drugs.

The best argument you can make with a logical person is to get them to admit that drug prohibitions haven’t done a thing to prevent people from getting illegal drugs. Then as them, what makes you think the same prohibition on guns will prevent people from getting illegal guns. If you understand that drug prohibitions just raise cost and crime but don’t prevent access, then any logical person will also understand that gun prohibitions only raise cost and crime and don’t stop access.

The problem?

Commie Dems are incapable of logic and rational thought when it comes to politics. They are all raw emotion and heart, and no brain. You can’t make logical arguments like the above with commie Dems. Their brains are not wired to process the information.

So there is no reasoning with them. They will never change on gun control but about the best way you can get through to them is just scream and break out in tears and claim your college sister was almost raped by a man but she had a gun and shot him before he could raper her. Be loud. Scream. Cry. Throw something. Go 100% emotional rage. That is all they understand. Or say it was your mother back in the day. Whatever. Just be completely emotional. It is the only way to get through to them.

Logic never works on commie Dems. They are completely incapable of processing it.

Watched an episode of Lost In Space last night with a young Kurt Russell.

I have Tombstone (the wifes favorite Russell movie), Miracle on Ice, Captain Ron and the one with Goldie on DVD.

It’s a wonder he survived Hollyweird and retained his sanity.
He must have saved his money and invested wisely.

Disregard my previous-they’re still together. Trivia note: Walt Disney:’s last words? They were “Kurt Russell”.

What people do not understand is that you are under no obligation to answer any reporter’s questions. You can just say, I am not talking about that, or “that’s a stupid question.”

Our culture has somehow fallen for this thought that reporters are “special.”

I always forget the Cheney angle. Disproves my theory.
