But they use guns in movies. How hypocritical is that?
Exactly. Hollywood loves guns - most action movies feature multiple guns, many of which would run afoul of Kalifornia’s rules. Both the good guys and the bad guys fire guns (just like real life!) The only action movie that didn’t have any guns was Charlie’s Angels, because Drew Barrymore insisted. Most Hollywood stars and execs are protected by bodyguards packing heat.
The only guns Hollywood doesn’t like are the ones that the common man carries
“MYTH: Guns are more likely to do harm than good.
REALITY: Guns are used at least hundreds of thousands of times a year for self-defense, far more often than they do harm”.
THIS is the No. 1 point that needs to be spread far and wide, but which the MSM does all it can to hide!
The recent tragedies have not altered this fact, they maybe nudged the percentage point .00001%.
I have had to use a firearm in self defense more than once, I moved away from that city/state to avoid it inevitably happening again.
I know far too many people who have had to defend themselves with a firearm in some manner.
They range from having to remodel the house once the cops released the scene to just yelling at the crud trying to break in that they would be shot if they came in.
All are self defense with a firearm, but only the ones with blood or a toe-tag make the biased news.
In fact most cases of self defense don’t even get a police report as victims do not need the hassle of becoming the “Suspect” from LE.
Which is the attitude they get since they are usually the only ones still around to be “Investigated”.
Most of the productions coming out of Hollywood could not be made were it not for the liberal and excessive use of gun violence. If you are not packing heat in these movies, you are a wimp, just plain dirt.
Hypocrisy is literally a foundational element of leftism.
