The National Rifle Association (NRA) recently released a list of gun control advocates.

According to the list, these people and companies have given money and/or support to gun control measures and/or organizations such as the Brady Act and the Clinton assault weapons ban, reports the Daily Mail.

According to the NRA, celebrities who believe in some sort of gun control in America (the most violent industrialized nation) include: Jack Nicholson, Sylvester Stallone, Dick Van Dyke, George Clooney and Lauren Bacall.

The NRA claims that these businesses support gun control in an effort to reduce deaths: National Spinal Cord Injury Association, the American Medical Association, Levi Strauss & Co., Hallmark Cards, Blue Cross Blue Shield insurance, Ben & Jerry`s and the American Association of Retired Persons.

The NRA also listed the Episcopal Church-Washington Office, Kansas City Royals baseball team, Gannet Publications, the New York Times and Motorcycle Cruiser Magazine.

Here is the complete list:

What a shame and embarrassment these people are. Instead of solving the problem, They stand up like the mindless fools they are and go against the very people who support them. Trying to take away our Constitutional rights when they would not hesitate to hire people with guns or have guns themselves is convoluted thinking.

I am ashamed of them. I also hope they will soon realize before it is to late the regime does not care about them and they will suffer the same fate as the rest of us. They may feel all comfy and secure now; but not for long if they continue with this stupidity.

They need to read history, real history, and fire their PR people. They need to come out from behind their rose colored glasses and face realty before it hits them square in the face.

I’m sure that all these celebrities live in the “hood”, have no personal weapons, no bodyguards, no Mercedes, no swimming pools, no gated community, no unlisted phone numbers and addresses, send their kids to inner city schools, and eat grits and hog jaws for lunch.

Welcome to the world of Bizarro, or it is the planet “Hypocrisy”, located just outside Uranus.

Dick Van Dyke? A household word when TV sets had rabbit ears.

Barney Miller!

I especially like Sgt.Wojciehowicz, AKA ‘Wojo’.

A total dumb bell but a good cop.

Lists of collaborators could come in very handy if the gov’t attempts to use force to remove the citizens’ ability to protect their families. These people think your family should be made vulnerable and at the same time assume theirs will be safe. They need to be informed about the reality of the situation.

Don’t you just love it when liberals can’t get you to agree with them and they tell you to grow up?

The NRA use to also list businesses that contributed to anti-2nd Amendment clauses. I know in the late 80s, Oscar Meyer was listed, and I’ve boycotted their food products ever since. I have no idea what that status is now.

The NRA needs to update that list because I saw a number of people they list who have past away.

If they’re dead their opinion wouldn’t matter.

Amazing how many of those actors play very violent parts in movies using guns and all sorts of other weapons. Total hypocrites.

One of the companies on the list is no longer in business...

This list has surfaced before, it's a few years old. There are a few individuals listed who are now dead, too.

Basically, this just means cancelling your cable subscription once and for all, and staying away from malls, movies theaters, and any vestiges of so-called contemporary society.

Which I am increasingly inclined to do without missing it one bit.

I thought the same thing. 10% probably are hanging on by a thread. And disarm their security team and you bet they will arm themselves or live underground.

I guess I will quit eating Earthgrains bread,

Wonder if SILVER DOLLAR CITY still has their gunmaker on site, or their shootout between the sheriffs and bandits, or their train robbery skit.

Otherwise I could care less when some organization with two members issues an anti-gun statement.

Britney Spears!? Comeon! Who looks to any of these fakes for instructions on how to live your own life, when they make their money pretending to be someone else, mouthing words written by someone else!
