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.

When was the last time you saw a movie without a gun or protective weapon in it? They are hypocrites.

And the carbon footprint calculation for transportation to and fro the globes and the venue itself?

I, for the life of me, cannot think of one person who would waste a round of ammo to shoot one of these asswagons. What do they need protection from?

They should simply ask Marianne Williamson to chant some mantras and emanate good vibes. No need for guns, then.

Have Oprah make a little gratitude speech to make the feel good tide overwhelming to anyone who plots violence.

Idea: Demand Gun Free Zone there to include no armed security.
How others live.

Democrats do what Democrats do. Just don’t accuse them of hypocrisy.

That’s an awful lot of guns in one area. Fingers crossed that no one gets shot.

LOL...I think it was a hurricane machine...but, I’m sure he had an earthquake machine, as well.

(Libs blamed NOLA hurricane Katrina on Cheney’s hurricane machine.)

Thanks. At least he had the power-—and now Trump has the power to enter Dem minds and affect them, to make weird things happen around them, and drive them nuts. Or more nuts.

The last time I saw golden globes was in the James Bond Goldfinger movie.
