Paul McCartney lent his voice to the gun control proponents this week. The former Beatle joined singer Tony Bennett's "Voices Against Violence" campaign which allows Americans supporter tougher new regulations on the gun control issue to text a number to receive contact information for their local legislator.

McCartney, a British citizen, is the latest celebrity to join Bennett's push for harsher gun control regulations. Gloria Estefan, Alec Baldwin, Rosie O'Donnell and Josh Groban are some of the other voices callers will hear in addition to Paul McCartney's plea that nobody has to "Live and Let Die" in his view.

"Tell [your] congressperson that you support common-sense laws that keeps guns out of the hands of the wrong people: Enough is enough, please add your voice to end gun violence," Paul McCartney's recording read.

Bennett himself was the subject of major criticism when he likened the United States to Nazi Germany because of the existence of the right to bear arms in the Constitution...

FUTB and FUPM. When did foreigners gain the right to dictate their beliefs to us? Do I go over there and shout at the Queen and bother the Prime Minister? Go back to your increasingly Muslim has-been island and leave us alone you old windbag!

[ConservativeStatement]

Did his latest wife tell him to think that?

[Secret Agent Man]

seriously paul, shut your effing eurosocialist trash mouth. go back to your own wimp-ass, welfare, godless, disarmed country being overtaken by muslims.

Imagine - no liberals

She gave him a leg up, I believe.

“Freeeeedom. We’re talking about freeeeedom!”

How quickly they forget.

Happiness is a warm gun...

The Beatles inspired Barack Obama's support of abortion.

So Tony Bennethinks thinks we are like Nazi Germany which had strict gun control, because we do not have gun control?

[Pollster1]

Sounds like Paul did too much “Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds” when he and John were writing and performing together. People who are not brain damaged know that it’s better to be armed than drugged up when a criminal starts a gunfight.

What McCartney fails to realize is that the 2nd Amendment keeps America strong and free.......strong enough to keep ourselves and our weaker allies from being overrun..........if not for the 2nd Amendment, McCartney would most likely be speaking Russian.

Instead of criticizing gun owners, he should be thanking them......

And, tell me, Paul, how many armed body guards do you have? You hypocrite jerk.

Oh, and why do you look like a woman?

He refuses to do a Voices against Violence concert in Chicago.

[ScottinVA]

No Paul.... we’re not interested in having our country become a euro hellhole under sharia law, like yours is rapidly becoming.

[ScottinVA]

Interesting Gloria Estefan, part of a family of CUBAN immigrants, would push for this as well. Hey Gloria... how has gun control worked out for the people in YOUR native land???

[Smokin' Joe]

We may be allies, now, but the last time they came for our guns, we kicked the British out once...and then did it again, for good measure.

Mind your manners in America, y'all don't own it any more.

[Steve_Seattle]

McCartney is a has-been who’s been peddling nauseating drivel ever since the Beatles split.

[oyez]

Paul, how much did you make from “Happiness is a Warm Gun”?

[exnavy]

Who?

[maddog55]

Excellent.. and I’’ll ad, Sir Paul, Let it be.
