Jim Carrey: I Never Wanted to Take Your Guns Away
Celebrity Newsie ^ | 04/03/2013 | Jim Carrey Op-Ed

Posted on 04/03/2013 7:13:05 AM PDT by SeekAndFind

I disagree wholeheartedly with individuals who say that there are just too many guns available in the market to regulate and that extra gun laws is not going to make a difference. trade must begin someplace. i am beautiful certain that no worthwhile undertaking has ever been finished and not using a starting and lowering gun violence in the united states is a worthwhile pastime.

These mass shootings and day by day body counts to your native information are bad tragedies. The utter devastation that must be persisted by means of the victims’ families is unfathomable. These horrific occasions are additionally an invite for us to develop into extra civilized and to take care of our dependancy and entitlement to violence. to not shut our eyes and ears and scream at those with a unique opinion than ours to “fuck off and return to Canada.” i will gladly go back and seek advice from Canada as i’ve many friends and loved ones there. i’m so happy with that u . s . and the whole thing it can be given to me, but i’m also a naturalized American citizen and i have been bringing as so much pleasure as i can to individuals on this u . s . for 30 years. I care deeply about our future and i feel it’s my responsibility as a citizen to do the whole thing in my energy to make this a better position.

for individuals who say i am a hypocrite as a result of i’ve an armed bodyguard, lets make one factor clear: nobody in my rent is allowed to carry a large magazine and no person IS ASKING any person to give up THEIR proper TO undergo hands, although it is in the vested pursuits of folks that revenue with the aid of gun sales to make it appear so. it’s just the kind of palms, the easy get admission to and the way with which to result in large devastation to just right and innocent folks that i’m hoping we will restrict. it can be the standard of mercy, the tiniest spark of empathy that i know lives in every person of us that I are looking to ignite in you.

And to the bullies who will try to marginalize and discredit me through pronouncing, “Shut up, you might be just an actor,” while they brag about what a really perfect president the ACTOR Ronald Reagan used to be, who threaten me with the loss of life of my performing occupation and much worse, I say SO BE IT! How shallow do they suspect i’m? i might trade my money, my fame, my popularity and legacy if there have been the slightest likelihood of preventing the agony of some other Columbine, Virginia Tech, Aurora, or Sandy Hook fundamental school. I ask you, really, what method of human being would not?

i have been aghast at the degree of hatred heaped upon me, my household and the folks I work with over a mere distinction of opinion on this problem. most likely my phrases were slightly harsh on the onset, but calling somebody a “Motherfucker” is some distance completely different than wishing them to die. it is shocking to look this concerted effort to brutally intimidate anyone who speaks of a compassionate compromise.

These thugs, though menacing, are a minority however they are going to have their manner if just right individuals don’t step ahead now and make a difference. each American has the right to speak their thoughts. each American has the appropriate to bear hands. however it’s up to each American to draw the road in terms of the type of weapons which are considered a cheap way of self-protection.

no person is allowed to personal a bazooka. In a movie theater an assault rifle with a a hundred-round drum journal can result in simply as so much injury.

So do not just take a seat there and do nothing. Contact your representatives and let them be aware of that their jobs depend upon change. It is not going to all the time be any person else’s kids within the line of fireside.

The time is now. LET YOUR coronary heart BE HEARD.

RE: Shouldn’t you have posted what Huffinton wrote for him and not the incoherent rantings if that is what you wanted people to read?

Huffington Post is NOT WELCOME in FR. That’s why I had to post the link to it.

The least people could do is read the threads before commenting.

And no, I am not covering for him. All I want is for people not to attack a strawman if they want to be serious about it.

Now if all they want is to mock the man, by all means, mock this incoherent article.

All the man deserves is to be mocked. Nothing he writes, coherent or incoherent, is to be taken seriously.

Huffington Post is not welcome on FR because it’s garbage.

Re: ...for individuals who say i am a hypocrite as a result of i’ve an armed bodyguard, lets make one factor clear... nobody in my rent is allowed to carry a large magazine...

Woodrow, I once said, "I'd like a chance t' shoot at a educated man once in my life,"... you do recall that, right?

I do recall... you saying that.

Well, confound it! That Jim Carrey fool... is going to live after all.

That's a fact, Gus... he sure isn't educated at all--

Fellas, we can rest assured, when it comes to book learning... old Jim Bo has been firing blanks for a long time--

Not only is he uneducated... he hasn't a steel ball to his name.

Gus, if you cannot shoot... try it the way I used in Oz... to get her done.

That's genius, Dorthy! Even in California, they haven't banned house dropping... yet!

If California does ban house dropping... just throw a bucket of water on Carrey.

If all else fails, I'll just eat the bum but I'm betting that scrawny arse of his... will give me indigestion for a month--

He sounds like the other nut, the one in the White House. That’s what he keeps saying while going to Connecticut to push for more gun laws.

As I said, I checked the thread article's website, celebritynewsie.com, and found no other parody on that site. Did you?

If not I will not assume that their version is a parody and will only believe the HuffPuff version is Carrey’s own writing when the email he sent it to them is released with complete header information.

Leaks and misdirected cc emails account for the much of the limited truth us lowly proles get from the Ministry of Truth and its agents.

IF this was written by Carrey, he wrote in on his iPhone because of the word replacement. None of it makes sense. Or maybe he's on drugs. Either way, he is really irrelevant.

Ronald Reagan was a govenor of your state before he became president. It is not like he walked off the set of some soundstage and into politics on Jan 1st, 1980....

Then why are a certain SanFran Congresscritter and two US Senators still wasting oxygen?

Re: Then why are a certain SanFran Congresscritter and two US Senators still wasting oxygen?

Gee, Sarge, Oz is a long, long, long way from California, but I am... clicking my heels as fast as I can!

Yeah, Sarge, it took her years of clicking... to just visit me here in Spain.

And, Sarge, Dorthy is supposed to first click up here in space... to bring me some Oz Brandy.

And when she get back from space, Sarge, she is lending me the red slippers... to complete my outfit for the Choreographers Ball--

And we are... going to win this year!

My take on it is that he wrote the piece on his cellphone in stream of consciousness mode and then hit “send” without bothering scroll back to the top to check it for logical flow along with wording, grammatical, and spelling errors.

He did himself no favors with this editorial. He should cut his losses and quit providing more material for his opponents to use against him and his “cause.”

“Could someone please translate? Is this language Canadian?”

No its not Canadian nor even Austrian. It sounds like the manic babbling of a Bipolar person who is in his manic phase and not on his meds. Carrey does say he is manic-depressive. His father was and the condition does run in families. The writing seems to resemble a condition called confabulation sometimes called “honest lying”.
