It’s a good thing we have Hollywood actors making these decisions for us. We probably don’t even need a Constitution or to vote anymore, with them around.

Sorry Matthew, my right to self defense and defense of liberty is not yours to sacrifice.

Celebrities. Is there anything they don’t know?

Yes. When to keep their mouths shut, and that most people don't care what they think.

The unacceptable sacrifice, as played out time and again in history, especially modern history, are the millions of unarmed citizens who are slaughtered by overreaching governments.

The same government that releases criminals into the public is the same one saying we need to violate the inalienable right of citizens to protect themselves.

Nazis - 'National Socialists'

Democrats - 'Democratic Socialists'

3xactly. It proves why we need guns! Unarmed good guys are powerless agaisnt heavily armed ad guys while we wait 20 minutes or more for cops to show up, then wait even longer for them to actually act!

Sadly members of the gop aren’t arguing these facts

But yet there they are, self sanctimoniously begging congress to take away our rights, while carving out exceptions for their guards to keep said guns

Except that Ronald Reagan wasn’t trying to run everyone’s lives; he was for promoting and restoring freedom.

Oh man .... another one bites the dust; another whole bunch of movies crossed off the list of accepatble things to watch. I'm down to Frasier and old Hallmark. He's got plenty of money so it won't matter, I'm just very disappointed to know he's just another douche canoe container ship.

Maybe it’d make sense if you offered something in exchange....like hand-grenades (dozen of them) that if you ran into trouble, you were free to use them.
