Leno's a class act....

It's a shame he let the ignoramuses over at Moms Demand Action bully him in to cancelling his appearance at the upcoming SHOT show in Las Vegas, sponsored by the National Shooting Sports Foundation.

Celebs who want to keep their fans ought not delve in to the realm of their own personal politics or religious views..... That's the best way to lose'em.

Anybody got a clean punch bowl? This one seems to have developed a bit of a wang to it.

Anyway, good for you Jay. As a fellow unabashed car guy, I suspect you made some guy REALLY happy.

She'll send plenty to the poor.

I'd love to get my mitts on a Hellcat. Just for a couple of hours.

co-signed.

"It's yours," Leno said handing Leberge the keys. "America loves you. Thank you buddy. Have a lot of fun. Don't get any tickets."

"I can't promise that," Leberge said with a smile.

I posted it here to prove that a certain contingent of haters will try to start a controversy.

Not one of them ever criticizes the actors who have made hundreds of millions. Why? Because those actors beg other people to donate to charity.
