Emma Stone, Melissa McCarthy, and Sheryl Crow are among a number of celebrities urging Americans to “reject the NRA” and concealed carry of firearms in the wake of the shooting at a Las Vegas country music concert this month.
Laura Dern, Bill Hader, and Adam Scott are also taking part in the anti-gun campaign, as is noted gun control advocate Julianne Moore. The celebrities are part of the Michael Bloomberg-funded Everytown for Gun Safety PSA against the NRA specifically, and against gun rights generally.
In typical Everytown fashion, the PSA does not present real solutions to the attack in Vegas–after all, the attacker complied with all gun controls, including background checks, so no new law would have stopped him. Even gun control advocate Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) admitted as much on the October 8 airing of Face the Nation. Therefore, in lieu of a substantive position, the celebrities are urging Americans to call Congress and oppose things that had nothing to do with the Las Vegas attack.
“The mass shooting in Las Vegas has all of us grieving, scared and angry,” Stone opens the video. From here, various other celebrities appear, telling people to text “REJECT” to Everytown. They inform viewers that the gun control group will call those who text, give them contact numbers for lawmakers, and “give [them] guidelines” on what to say when they talk to their lawmakers.

So sayeth those with bodyguards.
Wow I was on the fence before, but now this group of intellectual heavyweights really changed my mind.
As soon as they give up their armed guards........
they all gonna promise to never used armed bodyguards for the rest of their lives? if not, just the usual bunch of celeb hypocrites to be ignored.
Free men (and women) have firearms, slaves don’t.
The last thing I need is a lecture on anything from Hollywood types... Where do they get the damn gall???
I’ll do that very thing but first these celebrities will have to ESAD!!! IDIOTS!!
I’ll renew my son and I for two years this time. Thanks again, Hollywood!
Of course they will never give up their own guns and armed body guards.
Idiots.
I prefer Sheryl Crow’s advice stick to toilet paper.
Sheryl Crow is the academic heavyweight of the first three, actually earning a BA in Music. The fat one graduated from Catholic school and Stone is a HS dropout. So they are of course eminently suited to lecture us on guns.
Shove it you bunch of mattress-backs.
read my tagline. All I’ll say about it.
celebrities the shut up and bend over crowd
Hollywood really hates armed citizens because they're afraid that one time when they molest an adult or child the victim's spouse or parent will blow the pervert's brains out on the spot or shortly thereafter. Their "concern" has nothing to do with what happens to "little people", it's a manifestation of their damn guilt or guilty knowledge.
JMHo
reject the NRA
How about we reject the celebrities?
I imagine the toilet paper sticks to her...
So what is your first gun purchase going to be? Fully automatic glock AK is my recommendation.
All you have to do is go to a gun show, look for the covered display with the giant neon cannon.
Say these words exactly. “Yes, I would like to participate in the gun show loophole.”
Bam. A curtain will lift up and you’ll be able to buy anything you want. Pulse plasma rifles in the 40 watt range are obviously pre-order items.
