At the White House, Matthew McConaughey Calls for Politicians to Seize ‘Window of Opportunity’ for Gun Control

Actor Matthew McConaughey appeared at the White House press briefing on Tuesday, endorsing a series of gun control proposals that coincided with some of President Joe Biden’s radical agenda.

“As I said, this moment is different,” McConaughey said while appearing at the White House press briefing room. “We are in a window of opportunity right now that we have not been in before. A window in where it seems like real change — real change can happen.”

McConaughey said he spent time with the victims and families of the mass school shooting in his hometown of Uvalde, Texas last week that killed 19 children and two adults.

“How can the loss of these lives matter?” McConaughey asked reporters. “While we honor and acknowledge the victims, we need to recognize that this time, seems like something else is different.”

McConaughey grew emotional as he shared the stories of the children who were shot and killed during a mass shooting at an elementary school at his hometown of Uvalde, Texas, at points tearing up and slapping the podium.

He specifically called out the AR-15 rifle for mutilating the bodies of the children leaving them “not only dead but hollow.”

McConaughey said he was bringing a message from the people of his hometown.

“We want secure and safe schools and we want gun laws that won’t make it so easy for the bad guys to get these damn guns,” he said.

He also told reporters to “restrain sensationalized media coverage” of mass shootings.

“Responsible gun owners are fed up with the Second Amendment being abused and hijacked by some deranged individuals,” he said, calling more gun laws a “step forward” to protecting gun rights.

My guns are controlled just fine. Don’t need any help controlling them from Washington or Hollywood (or Austin, as the case may be).

I honestly do not see when a few nuts kill people and that is considered a window of opportunity to do more legislation. If it was possible, and has happened in the past, why didn’t the people that are trying to get more worthless legislation, obviously, in, consider that a need and not an opportunity? Waiting for something to happen to trigger an action by government is admitting they can’t do their work to protect people.

When they have to let some get killed to prove a point they should have prepared successful ideas so they don’t display they have no control as criminals are going to get guns. The thing to do is execute them after the criminals use up all their appeals to let criminals know they will be killed back. So if they do it anyway, kill them back. Simple.

He was talking about running for some office or other, wasn’t he? Last year?

And now he gets a presser at the White House?

Because why? because he’s famous and recently had a success with Sing 2? (which didn’t even sound like him, frankly).

Looks like the democraps might be circling their jerks around him - he might bring a few votes from the white women, yeah?

And I see a window of opportunity for you to screw yourself you POS.....grandstanding without a bit of knowledge of what the hell you’re talking about. Movies drying up? Phone not ringing?......I thought so.

Sounds like we need to BAN ALL GUNS from Hollywood Productions and Permanently BAN All Movies and TV shows that depict a Gun.

Who is he acting as now? He has no special knowledge of anything except memorizing lines and lying professionally.

Heard about it, read about it, but after seeing it, McConaughey is nuts. Creepy cadence.

Matthew needs to get behind the wheel of his Lincoln Continental, and drive off into the sunset.
