John Voight Buys Thanksgiving Turkeys For Stranger At Walmart
Breitbart ^ | 11/22/16 | Daniel Nussbaum

Jon Voight helped dozens of children to have a Thanksgiving dinner after the actor purchased turkeys for a complete stranger while in line at a Kentucky Walmart on Friday. According to ABC News, the Oscar-winning actor was in line at the grocery store in Louisville when he noticed that the woman ahead of him, Sydney Gholston, was getting ready to purchase six whole turkeys ahead of the holiday this week.

“I was helping the lady scan the turkeys and the man behind me said, ‘You must have a big family. That’s an awful lot of turkeys,'” Gholston told ABC News. “I said, ‘I work at the Home of the Innocents.'”

Gholston — who works as the director of food and nutritional services at the nonprofit organization, which provides care to at-risk children and to children who have been victims of abuse — said she chatted with Voight for a little while before the actor offered to purchase all six turkeys for her.

Voight is a rare animal -- a Hollywood star who's conservative. And he just proved that he's willing to put his money where his mouth is.

Good man.

Jon Voight what a great guy and conservative!

Plus, I bought his ‘89 LeBaron convertible!!

It caught on fire, though.

That’s very kind of him. By the way, where has he been? He did a great job on the Trump bus last summer, but then disappeared. What happened?

overall, i like Jon Voigt.

I could get used to seeing him and Clint on Trump’s radar for something.

Jon Voight won an Academy award in 1970. He is an established star, like Robert Woods. They can both tell the liberals where to stick it. It is the younger actors who are on the way up who have to be very careful about what they say, or they will never work in Hollywood again.

That’s refreshing! Normally the only ones who could buy that many turkeys are the EBT crowd.

He makes his (so far just one) vid by himself; writes it, films and uploads it.

LOVE THE GUY..!!

I guess the rich Corinthian leather went up too. Ricardo Montalban pushed it so well.

Anyway JV, hell of a guy.

I think Jon misspelled his name!!! He accidentally put in an “h” on some of the paperwork!!!!
