Mass respect for VV

So I was reading CNN, the most trusted name in entertainment news (because it's funny, you see?) and it was like "omgerd which actor would have more guns in schools oh noezz!1!11" and I was like "woa boy what now" and low-n-behold it was Vince Vaughn taken out of context or something, who knows.

But anyway I was checking it out and apparently he aligns with Libertarian and supports Rand Paul and all kinds of other cool freedom-minded political stuff. How cool is that!!!

So now I have much much respect for Vince Vaughn. I wish more actors were like him instead of left-leaning sheeple that are fine making their money off of liberty then turn around and stab it in the back in real life.

Horray for VV!

You just don't know what you're talking about. In (very liberal) Minnesota, my father and his younger brother, as well as countless other young boys around the nation, brought their rifles to school for gun club. My dad not only kept his rifle in his locker, his so-called "locker" had no lock!

In the fall, he and his friends left school with their rifles slung over their shoulders and walked out into the fields, where they hunted pheasant until the sun went down.

Rifles were just as lethal in the 1950s. The only real thing that has changed since then is the culture. Inanimate objects aren't hellbent on killing you, despite your irrational fear of them.
