Rambo’s Sylvester Stallone supports gun control (New movie FLOPS!)
Washington Times AP ^ | 2/2/13 | Ryan Pearson

BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. — Sylvester Stallone says that despite his “Rambo” image and new shoot-em-up film “Bullet to the Head,” he’s in favor of new national gun control legislation.

Stallone supported the 1994 “Brady bill” that included a now-expired ban on assault weapons, and hopes that ban can be reinstated.

“I know people get (upset) and go, ‘They’re going to take away the assault weapon.’ Who … needs an assault weapon? Like really, unless you’re carrying out an assault. … You can’t hunt with it. … Who’s going to attack your house, a (expletive) army?”

Actors will eventually learn to shut up and act.

Stallone's comments best read in a Rocky Balboa voice.

Go ahead and vent, Sly. But it ain't gonna help your box office receipts.

The funny thing is that in the movie “Demolition Man” he stole guns from a museum to protect the unarmed utopiatards from a crazed killer.

Who … needs an assault weapon?

Movie actors, for one. Provided they star in action films, Mr. Stallone.

Seems like many of the folks with private armies of security are all for gun control. Interesting, isn’t it?

Stallone’s comments are very disappointing.

Who … needs an assault weapon?

Your body guards. And everyone else who wants one. It not need, it's want. You own a LOT of shit you don't need, but you bought it because your fans dropped a lot of money some of them needed so you could buy things you want.

Who’s going to attack your house, a (expletive) army?

Sometimes, Syllie, it can be. For a single person, more than one attacker is as good as an army. Ever had a house invasion? Oh, that's right. You have heavily armed bodyguards, so that wouldn't happen.

So why does he need so many assault weapons in his movies?
Mega-hypocrite!

Yoah Rambo,

Using your head for a punching bag.

Control your own gun then, Sly.

But if you attempt to control my gun, you and I are going to butt heads.

I'm sure all the ghetto gangsta's, and drug cartel street-workers will line right up to Register their weapons, pass background checks, etc.

I think an Amendment to the High-Capacity Magazine Ban should address Criminal Background Checks for those who want to recieve EBT's, WIC, Food Stamps, or ANY other Means-Tested handouts, along with MANDATORY Drug Testing, periodically, to CONTINUE to recieve ANY Public Assistance, including Housing under Section 8......
