Jamie Foxx, Jon Hamm, Beyonce, Will Ferrell, Chris Rock demand a plan to End Gun Violence

[Eric the Reddish]

Along with Ellen DeGeneres, Conan O'Brien, Brooke Shields, Sarah Silverman and more.

But hey, we don't really have to pay attention, right?

Right?

[UnrepentantLiberal]

1. Well done.

[GETTINGTIRED]

2. It's Time

3. The Hollywood elite at it again

I oppose artists, actors and entertainers taking these radical political stands. Better to heed advice from intellectuals like Chuck Norris, Victoria Jackson, Craig Nelson, Charlton Heston, Ted Nugent, Bo Derek and their ilk.

Down with the Hollywood elite.

Disclaimer: I do realize I just listed a bunch of mostly washed up actors and has beens, but that doesn't stop the righties from posting quotes from any one of these dipshits every couple days or so.

[Eric the Reddish]

5. Bo Derek is a Rightie???

Aw, jeez, I wasted all that semen as a teenager! DAMN!

[Zoeisright]

6. THAT is a 'radical political stand'??

You seriously need to get your priorities in order if you think gun control is radical. And comparing the people in that honorable video to nuts like Norris, Jackson, heston, and Nugent is really sick.

Time to pull on your big girl panties and grow up.

[Eric the Reddish]

9. Ah.....

I think kwolf may have posted that sarcastically.

[etherealtruth]

7. Demanding an end to Gun violence

This is a radical stand to you?

Does being an entertainer mean one should not let their voice be heard?

[Bjorn Against]

16. Read that post again, it is clearly tongue in cheek

[Eric the Reddish]

21. Yes

[etherealtruth]

27. Oh God ...

Embarrassed and sorry

[uponit7771]

28. Don't be...the GOP FUDr memes have been abundant in the last couple of weeks

[Eric the Reddish]

30. We all make mistakes

Don't sweat it.

[ReRe]

11. Respectfully...

...why do you hate Hollywood?

[fascisthunter]

19. says the goofie conspiracy theorists who listen to Rush Limbaugh

[Eric the Reddish]

22. He was Kidding

Read Bjorn Against's post above.

[fascisthunter]

33. I realized after I posted but didn't bother editing

I should have....

[Eric the Reddish]

35. For Shame!

KIDDING!

[loyalkydem]

4. How many more babies will die before NRA nuts get it. Enough.

[etherealtruth]

8. I fervently believe they will never get it

They are deranged

[ReRe]

10. Demand a plan now!

Message is not complicated, is straightforward. Now who's going to see it? Will this be seen on Main Stream Media?

[libdem4life]

12. This is about changing the conversation. Not likely to see our buddies Ted, Hank, Jr and Kid

in the post Sandy Hook conversation anytime soon. They've already had their say.

[loyalkydem]

13. aren't they suppose to be in prison right now

[libdem4life]

14. I'd certainly go for that, but hadn't heard.

[Deep13]

15. Will Ferrell also demands more cowbell, just FYI. nt

[raquel69]

17. Thanks for

making me laugh. So heartbroken over this tragedy. I so wish we can prevent future incidents.

[Sedona]

18. K&R

[CBHagman]

20. Reese Witherspoon has been speaking out on this issue for some time.

Unfortunately the media decided years back that we were supposed to give up.

Getting to the video, Chris Rock has just the right line ("As a human being!&quot .

[Nero No Hero]

36. Reese has been a warrior on this issue

And she doesn't need a weapon!

[Omaha Steve]

23. K&R!

Waaaay too many dislikes. The nutz are not happy.


Update: less that 12 hours later, it has gone from 30% dislikes to nearly 40% dislikes.

26. That's the problem. The "Other Side" of this argument is armed...

dangerous and somewhat irrational when backed up against the wall of public opinion.

[progressoid]

32. "somewhat irrational"

That might be an understatement. Let's hope they limit themselves to just clicking buttons on the internet.

[Martin Eden]

29. LaPierre has a plan.

My point being, the devil is in the details. Some plans (like the NRA's) would do more harm than good.

But I wholeheartedly agree with the OP -- we can't just wail & gnash our teeth for a couple months, then do nothing and revert to the status quo (which is essentially the NRA's status quo).

I hear Joe Biden's working on it.

[ok_cpu]

31. Here's a celebrity on gun control

How is it that 30 years ago people knew the idea of "arming everyone" was pure satire?

[trumad]

34. LOL

Great find...pass pistols out at the beginning of the trip---pick them up at the end. ROTF
