Sackhoff tweeted that gun safety is important. Someone responded calling for gun control. She said that's not going to happen in the U.S and repeated her call for people to practice gun safety and quickly started losing followers.
She didn't even say that she opposed gun control, just that it wasn't going to happen. And that was too much for her Twitter followers who support gun control.

Hope she’s ready for her IRS audit.

And finally a lesson learned (and tweeted to her 99,500 followers), but she sticks by her (literal and metaphorical) guns:She has 101,828 followers as of about 3 seconds ago.

If I tweeted, I would follow...but I’m not a tweeter.

I think that was the original Battlestar Galactica.

Heard a caller on the (not) Mark Levin show today. Caller is military and said he was asked point blank that if he were ordered to go to his hometown and seize guns from his neighbors would he follow these orders?
So it’s not like we don’t know what they plan to do...turn the US military on the US citizens who are following the Constitution.
This is a coup.

This article was posted about five hours ago, so she’s picked up some. But she had around 200,000 when this all started.

I wonder how many people thought her retweet was anti-gun, vs. pro-gun?

Nothin like Hollywood actresses making their pointless careers shooting guns on camera while they call for the big government to take our guns away from us.
Can you imagine if these lib actors were the ones to get invaded by the Cylons?
They (Cylons) would pass out free birth control and bags of coke to round them (lib actors) up in one place.

Apparently, the only one’s I’ve seen we’re from the early 80’s- when Starbuck was a guy!
To: Chode
"i thought Starbuck was a guy..." In the original TV series, he was. Back then, Starbuck was played by Dirk Benedict; he's one of us, and IIRC, was friends with Breitbart.
When the new Battlestar Galactica came out, they changed Starbuck to a female. Benedict penned an article about it and the feminization of Hollywood that was originally up on Breitbart's Big Hollywood site:

He didn’t say and the host didn’t ask. The host today was Brian Sussman I think.
But the caller was clearly a conservative patriotic American.

Judging from discussion threads, including this one, it seems that even after it has been explained that one of her Twitter followers called for gun control and she dismissed it, some people think she’s the one who called for gun control.
So yeah, I guess some of those she lost could well have been confused pro-gun types.
To: Chode
Starbuck and Boomer became women in the “gritty” “realistic” PC version. And Boomer was a Cylon. And the Cylons looked like humans because they didn’t have the budget for a robot suit.
