That was quick. Yes the hypocrisy is astounding. I wonder if they will pony up first and have their security details hand over their weapons. Same with the congressors.

I'm assuming this is why they've disabled comments for the video as Jamie Foxx, the first to speak in the video, is in the newest gun violence and gore fetish movie.

"Demand a plan"? Yeah sure. Our politicians will come up something, whether it makes sense or not, just to say they did.

As far as those in the video, if the gov't were to start with taking a hard look at the glorification of violence in the entertainment and game industry they'll go, uh, ballistic.

Until they're paid to look the other way. I'm sorry, "lobbied".

I noticed this as well. They know the comments against it will be probably 2 to 1 in pro-gun favor.

Seriously, this PSA makes me sick. These self-righteous, opportunistic pricks. I liked Renner, O'Brien and a couple others on there but I will no longer support these tools in any of their endeavors in any way, shape or form from here on out.

Yeah, like I am about to take advice from celebrities who have bodyguards and properties that are monitored by armed guards 24/7.

And I bet most of them have guns in their houses too.
