Hollywood is Actually Dominated by Gun Rights Fanatics

Newsmax

Here are 12 quotes from Hollywood stars who reject gun control arguments:
1. “I want violent crimes curbed as much as anyone, but not at the expense of our Second Amendment rights — which are there to protect us,” action star Chuck Norris wrote in a column.

2. “It’s a Second Amendment right and bad guys aren’t going to turn their weapons in, so good people need to be able to protect themselves,” actor Gary Sinise told Larry King.

3. “I think that you can't start to pick apart anything out of the Bill of Rights without thinking that it's all going to become undone,” said “Die Hard” star Bruce Willis. '”If you take one out or change one law, then why wouldn't they take all your rights away from you?”

Gun Violence Memorial Tells Stories of Victims as Young as 3 Years Old



The Washington Post


Marked with the names of the dead, the T-shirts hung in rows outside a Washington church Saturday, just as the tombstones stand in Arlington National Cemetery.

Only here, the 155 gunshot victims fell during more personal battles last year and — ranging in age from 3 to 73 — are now part of the war against gun violence in the United States.

In its second year, the “Memorial to the Lost” tribute to gunshot victims in the Washington region began a two-week stint outside Chevy Chase Presbyterian Church, with a bugler playing taps and a small group reading the names of those whose tragedies have largely been forgotten since they occurred in 2014.

From there, the memorial that asks passersby to pray for the victims will move to at least 13 other locations in Washington, Virginia and Maryland before it is taken down in the fall, said Lisa Delity, a chief organizer.
