'HAPPY DAYS' STAR POUNCES ON NAVY YARD SHOOTING TO PROMOTE GUN CONTROL

It's a sad celebrity ritual. Tragedy strikes somewhere in the U.S., and a star uses Twitter to politicize it for their pet cause.

Henry Winkler of Happy Days fame joined the club earlier today.

The actor rushed to Twitter today after news broke that a shooting at the U.S. Navy Yard in Washington, D.C. left several people dead. Many details are still unknown, but that didn't prevent Winkler from assuming gun control would have prevented the shooting.

You’d think a Jew whose parents fled Hitler would have more affection for self-defense and an armed citizenry, huh?

I remember of my Italian friends from back in our neighborhood in NY making the comment: “Hollywood is really amazing - they can take a short, skinny, Jew and turn him into a tough goomba!”

This puerile has-been should just change his wet, pink panties and fade away. Idiot.

As a counterbalance: http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2013/sep/12/james-woods-obama-hes-gift-hell/

It’s a safe bet there’s no love lost between Hollywood actor James Woods and President Obama — the former has taken to Twitter several times over the last few months to trash the policies and politics of the latter.

The latest came this week, in response to a report from British press that revealed the National Security Agency commonly provides Israel with intelligence data — without first stripping out private and personal information on American citizens. The Guardian in London reported the item, the latest in its coverage of document leaks from Edward Snowden.

Mr. Woods unleashed his views of the matter — and of Mr. Obama’s role in allowing the practice to occur — on Twitter.

He wrote: “Report: Data on Americans shared with Israel … Obama: the gift from hell that keeps on giving.”

This is hardly the first unfavorable rating Mr. Woods has posted on his Twitter account about Mr. Obama. In July, the actor ranted over Mr. Obama’s insertion of his personal opinion into the George Zimmerman-Trayvon Martin trial, characterizing it as fueling racial tensions and wondering why the president would speak his mind about the death of the 17-year-old Trayvon but not worry so much about American’s soldiers and wounded warriors.

Well, let’s see. I don’t suppose there are many US cities that have stricter gun control laws than D.C., so how would more gun control have prevented this? These stupid Hollyweirdoes are so annoying.

Thumbs down, Fonz.

I prefer Clint Eastwood on gun control: “If there’s a gun around, I want to be controlling it.”
