“All gun purchases should require a background check.”

That has been the law for quite a long time. The mindless clapping seal idiot.

Stop using guns in movies. Hollywood has been glorifying gun violence since before there was a Hollywood.

How many movies has he done where he used a gun?

Does he go anywhere without either being armed or having an armed guard?

How about we hold schools and parents accountable for their mentally ill kids who often show many “red flags” over the years and never gets reported to police, mental health agencies. This last incident friends, ex girlfriends, coworkers all knew he was mentally ill, violent, killed animals, etc. No one called it in- if they did, no one did anything. How about we beef up our mental health centers for kids in high school.

People may disagree with me, but I do feel age needs to be raised to 21 to purchase a gun because almost all the shootings at schools were kids in high school. I think we need to raise voting and drafting age to 21 as well.

Society has changed so much from when I grew up in 60’s. Social media, tik tok, the bullying, the ability to post video’s, etc has exploded. A kid bullied, suffering with mental illness in high school, can’t get a gun legally until 3 years after they graduate. Maybe by then they will have got help or not been so angry to just go buy a gun at 18 and kill people.

Folks can say whatever they want about background checks, the FBI,
celebrities with armed guards.

Why didn’t the cops go in after him?

Why did it take 1hr 22min for someone to finally go in?

Ramos wasn’t even in the school when the school resource officer arrived at the school.

Why didn’t the cops go in after him?

Let’s see.
There are adults in congress.
Are they educated? You’d think so.
But they want him control. They think taking the guns is the answer?
Educated? NO. Playing political game for dummies? YES.

Now on to another post.. Wanting Trump pounced on... But biden family, child trafficking, mistakes out the wadzu on foreign policy and making millions from countries.. And on and on...

See? This stuff makes my blood boil!!!

I don't always talk about gun control, but when I do I ask morons from Hollywood their opinions...

Then I do the opposite.

Waiting to get gun control advice from Alex Baldwin...🤓

I though he was intelligent and well-educated. Turns out he’s just a very good actor.

I was fooled.

Having a common name I’ve had to wait up to three days to pick up my gun on the last several purchases due to the background check.

It’s The Tool That’s At Fault!

Isn’t that right Miatthew?

/S

Give up your car because some mental retard used his car to run over a mother and her baby.

Give up your airplane because some mass murder terrorists used them to destroy the World Trade Center and kill a few thousand people.

Make your armed security give up their weapons because a few mental cases and evil-doers used theirs to kill some innocent people.

Lop your weenie off because some men used theirs to rape women.

Matty thinks he’s the greatest male actor since Paul Newman.

If my memory is correct, McConaughey has made statements in the past with which I have agreed. Lately, he’s batting zero. Same with Jon Voight.

I think the “press” puts the conservative Hollywood actors on speed-dial and harasses them 24/7, at these times for statements like this.

The most important thing an actor needs to learn is when to shut up.

I like your idea of the volcano sacrifice. I have climbed many. I would suggest Popocapetl Volcano east of Mexico City. Currently active with a nice deep crater. Not too far away so it minimizes C02 from the transport.

Also, patriots are reminded that they must vote twice this election year. Your first vote is to primary career RINO incumbents. Your second vote is to replace outgoing Democrats and RINOs with Trump-endorsed patriot candidates.

Insights welcome.

Private sales do not require a background check. The proposals would essentially outlaw private sales, unless they are made through an FFL dealer - which then creates a federally accessible record of the transfer.

Be careful about accepting the gun grabbers’ premise for their ugly plans.

Obviously you don't have to be very smart to be a big Hollywood movie star.

An armed population will not easily be forced into railroad cars!

I would rather sacrifice socialist, NAZIs, communists and liberals.
