Anti-Gun Hollywood Steps Up Armed Protection For Golden Globes
Breitbart ^ | 1-5-2020 | Awr Hawkins

Posted on 01/05/2020 4:33:09 PM PST by blam

Actors and actresses in anti-gun Hollywood will be surrounded by armed security on Sunday as they attend the 77th annual Golden Globes.

New York Daily News reports Beverly Hill Police Department Capt. Michael Hill saying, “We have a robust security plan that includes assistance from our local, state, and federal law enforcement partners. Additionally, we will be using the most contemporary technologies in an attempt to ensure the ceremony is held without incident.”

Variety quotes Beverly Hills Police Lt. Robert Maycott noting that the US strike against Iran has not altered the security plan. Rather, he noted that “security is similar to what it was last year.”

Breitbart News reported that 2019 security included barricades, bomb-sniffing dogs, armed guards, LAPD officers, and numerous security checkpoints for attendees as they arrived for the Golden Globes.

Golden Globes security has been high level for many years. Breitbart News noted that the January 8, 2017, Golden Globes were surrounded by good guys with guns and body armor. There were also security dogs, SWAT, and special FBI teams taking part in security.

Breitbart noted that Matt Damon was at the 2017 awards, the very Matt Damon who made millions of dollars using guns in the Bourne film series, yet called for an Australia-like gun ban for the rest of America. Other gun controllers, including Jessica Chastain and Ryan Reynolds, were also in attendance, enjoying the benefits of good guys with guns while fighting off-screen to limit those benefits for average Americans.

The 2016 Golden Globes featured security personnel wearing tactical gear and carrying handguns and AR-15s with “high capacity” magazines, weapons that looked very similar to civilian guns so many Hollywood actors and actresses want to bar law-abiding citizens from owning.

The Iranian regime is evil, but they’re not stupid. They will not attack their admirers here in the US.

Video at link. Ricky Gervais tells the Hollywood Crowd they know *nothing* about the real world.

Partial clip here.

Allegedly, somewhere in the full speech he tells the crowd Hollywood is full of ped0s...

Can someone verify?

I hope NO ONE is watching the Golden Globes

I wish I was watching it but I don't have cable. From my Twitter feed, host Ricky Gervais is dropping red pills by the bucket all over the place.

He's lighting "woke" Hollywood on fire. I doubt he'll be invited back.

When was the last time you saw a movie where the bad guys used a semi-automatic rifle?

They ALWAYS have full auto.

that’s why so much of this country is ignorant on AR-15s

They make a FORTUNE off of guns and everything else they protest. It’s easy to prove and not easy to change the mind of the stupidest people on the planet who I have no time for.

If the Hollywood types understood the concept of irony maybe we would have decent movies again.

I’m watching. It seems like Gervais has emboldened them to go the extra mile tonight. Disgusting.

Whenever a natural disaster would happen to the blue states, back in the day, Freepers would joke that Cheney had his earthquake...or hurricane...or tornado...machine operating again.

Ricky was very brave to make those “pedo” remarks.

He better watch his back.

Guess he wasn’t invited to the after-parties.

Thanks, Jane, for the backup.

My memory is not what it used to be.

Back when Hollywood still had many with common sense, weren’t completely full of themselves and the pap they feed on.
