==Incremental Gun-Grabbing of the Police State - Nanny State==
 +
According to all of the major [[Second Amendment]] defender organizations, [[liberals]] and [[socialist]]s support so-called "common sense" measures - a "good first step" of the [[Police state]] - [[Nanny state]]. To a [[conservative]] [[citizen]]-[[prepper]]-[[patriot]] [[Oath Keepers|Oath Keeper]] and to the [[Bill of Rights]], this is "[[incrementalism|death by a thousand paper cuts]]". (See [[List of celebrities against Second Amendment]])
 +
 
 +
[[Conservative]] [[Gun Owners of America|gun owners]] support the [[Second Amendment Foundation]] and this video, which is the formal response to [[Hollywood values|Hollywood]]'s [[Demand a Plan]] [[gun control|gun-grabbing]] [[propaganda]] video. The video shows one of the main differences between [[liberal]] [[gun control]] [[Nanny state]]s ([[Blue states]]) and [[conservative]] and/or [[libertarian]] [[Second Amendment]]-supporting "[[free state]]s" ([[Red states]]). This video shows why [[conservative]]s and [[libertarian]]s "[[vote with your feet|vote with our feet]]": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UBelF4UddcY<ref>As of December 8, 2014, there are 60,819 views on [[YouTube]] of [[Second Amendment Foundation]]'s ''Equal [[Gun Rights]]'', Online. Published on Feb 24, 2013. http://equalgunrights.com and http://saf.org. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UBelF4UddcY.</ref>
 +
 
 +
It’s a common misconception that all [[celebrity|celebrities]] are liberal, anti gun snobs. This is simply not true. Just like in any group of people there are those who support and those who oppose private gun ownership, [[self-defense]] and [[home security]]
 +
 
 +
Now, I’m sure many of you who normally despise keeping up with what celebrities are thinking, “Hey, why should we care what these celebrities think?”
 +
 
 +
Good question, and the answer is simple, it’s good, positive exposure for private gun ownership. You might not care what some celebrities think, but a lot of people [sadly] do, so having some on our side certainly doesn't hurt.
 +
 
 +
Just like all other [[elitist]] "[[United Nations|one world government]]" [[globalist]] [[socialist]]s (including the celebrity-celebrating [[Obama Administration]]), one of the key elements to the [[National Socialism|National Socialist-Nazi)]]'s initial success in taking over all of [[Germany]] and much of [[Europe]] was [[citizen]] [[disarmament]] through the [[National Socialism|National Socialist]]'s [[liberal]] policies of [[gun control]] and [[mainstream media]] [[propaganda]] [[demonization]] through [[class warfare]].
 +
 
 +
In the article ''[[List of celebrities against Second Amendment]]'' is a list of [[liberal]] "[[gun grabbing]]" [[Hollywood values|celebrities]] who are against the [[Second Amendment]] and the [[unalienable rights]] of [[self-defense]], [[home security]], and [[Castle Doctrine]]. May of these persons have earned a lot of [[money]] in [[movie|movies]] and TV shows where they routinely use [[firearm]]s. You may consider [[boycott|boycotting]] them and not supporting these [[gun control|gun grabbing]] celebrities who make [[liberal]] [[mainstream media]] [[propaganda]] against our [[unalienable]] [[gun rights]].
 +
 
 +
The following is a list of generally [[conservative]] or [[libertarian]] [[American Patriot]] celebrities who are for the [[Second Amendment]]. May of these persons have earned a lot of money in movies and TV shows where they routinely use firearms. You may consider supporting those [[List of celebrities who support the Second Amendment|celebrities who support our gun rights]]:

==Detailed Profiles of Celebrity Second Amendment Supporters==
 +
<ref>[[Fair use]]: http://gunssavelives.net/blog/11-pro-gun-celebrities-yes-they-do-exist 23 Pro Gun Celebrities – Yes, They Do Exist! **UPDATED July 2014** Accessed December 26, 2014</ref>
 +
 
 +
===Brad Pitt===
 +
[[Brad Pitt]] said in a recent interview with British magazine Live (in response to more gun control following the [[Colorado]] movie shooting), “I absolutely don’t believe you can put sanctions or shackles on what is made. Nor do I want to pretend the world is different than what we witnessed that night… America is a country founded on guns. It’s in our DNA. It’s very strange but I feel better having a gun. I really do. I don’t feel safe, I don’t feel the house is completely safe, if I don’t have one hidden somewhere. That’s my thinking, right or wrong.”
 +
 
 +
Pitt also recently built a $400,000 shooting range as a wedding gift to fiance [[Angelina Jolie]].
 +
 
 +
===Angelina Jolie===
 +
[[Angelina Jolie]], an avid shooter (she has to be, to be getting her own $400k shooting range), Jolie has several times expressed her support of the Second Amendment.
 +
 
 +
In 2008, Jolie told the U.K.’s [[Daily Mail]], “I bought original, real guns of the type we used in ‘[[Tomb Raider]]’ for security. Brad and I are not against having a gun in the house, and we do have one. And yes, I’d be able to use it if I had to … If anybody comes into my home and tries to hurt my kids, I’ve no problem shooting them.”
 +
 
 +
===Joe Perry of Aerosmith===
 +
[[Joe Perry]] of [[Aerosmith]] recently spoke at length about his support for the Second Amendment in an interview with [[Fox News]]<ref>http://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/2012/09/21/aerosmith-leader-joe-perry-talks-ons-guns-classic-firearms-defending-second/?intcmp=features Accessed December 26, 2014 </ref>.
 +
 
 +
Perry says, “I have always been fascinated with guns. I grew up in America so granted, it is part of our heritage and it is written into the laws of how this country is run,” he said. “I’ve been fascinated with all kinds of weapons my whole life, and as I have been able to afford to acquire pieces, here and there I started to collect.”
 +
 
 +
 
 +
===Miranda Lambert===
 +
[[Miranda Lambert]], the famous [[country music]] star told Self.com earlier this year that she’s packing heat.<ref>http://www.self.com/healthystars/2012/06/miranda-lambert-slideshow#slide=6 Accessed December 26, 2014</ref>
 +
 
 +
Lambert said, “I carry a weapon. I got a death threat a few years ago and was really scared. But I don’t want bodyguards. I am my own security.“
 +
 
 +
===Johnny Depp===
 +
[[Johnny Depp]] recalls fond memories about shooting as a kid and plans to teach his children to shoot.
 +
 
 +
Depp says, “We would just go out and line up a bunch of cans and shoot with [[rifle]]s, [[handgun]]s and at times, [[submachine gun]]s,” Depp admits. “When I was a kid it was a controlled atmosphere, we weren’t shooting at humans – we were shooting at cans and bottles mostly. I will most certainly take my kids out for target practice.”
 +
 
 +
===Clint Eastwood===
 +
This list obviously wouldn’t be complete without [[Dirty Harry]] [[Clint Eastwood]] himself.
 +
 
 +
Eastwood once said, “I have a very strict gun control policy: if there’s a gun around, I want to be in control of it.”
 +
 
 +
Eastwood is a tireless supporter of the Second Amendment and a supporter of the [[NRA]] and other pro gun organizations.
 +
 
 +
===James Earl Jones===
 +
[[James Earl Jones]] once said, “The world is filled with [[violence]]. Because [[criminal]]s carry [[gun]]s, we decent law-abiding [[citizen]]s should also have guns. Otherwise they will win and the decent people will lose.”
 +
 
 +
Jones is also a member of the NRA.
 +
 
 +
===Bruce Willis===
 +
[[Bruce Willis]], the famous action star, said in a 2000 interview with USA Weekend<ref>http://www.webcitation.org/5msOk5618 Accessed December 26, 2014. Original was at http://www.usaweekend.com/00_issues/000213/000213willis.html</ref>, “Everyone has a right to bear arms. If you take guns away from legal gun owners, then the only people who have guns are the bad guys.” Even a [[pacifist]], he insists, would get violent if someone were trying to kill her. “You would fight for your life. You’d use a rock or tear one of these chairs out of the floor.”
 +
 
 +
 
 +
===Ice-T===
 +
The rapper/actor [[Ice-T]] is not only a supporter of the right to bear arms, but it sounds like he understands the historical point of thee Second Amendment better than most. Saying earlier this year following the shooting in Colorado, “The right to bear arms is because that’s the last form of defense against tyranny. Not to hunt.”<ref>http://www.hollywood.com/news/Ice_T_Pro_Guns/34931660 Accessed December 26, 2014</ref>
 +
 
 +
 
 +
===Ted Nugent===
 +
We would list some sources to show [[Ted Nugent]]’s support of the Second Amendment, but I don’t think we have the space. Nugent might be the most outspoken celebrity supporter of the Second Amendment ever.
 +
 
 +
 
 +
===Tom Selleck===
 +
[[Tom Selleck]] is a member of the [[NRA]], an NRA board member and one of the NRA’s spokesman. Selleck has long found himself defending his views throughout his career, but has remained a staunch supporter of the Second Amendment.
 +
 
 +
===Chuck Norris===
 +
[[Chuck Norris]] has been a long time defender of the right to bear arms.
 +
 
 +
While Chuck Norris’s feet and hands may be more deadly than any weapons, and as such he doesn’t need firearms, he supports the rights of normal humans to own them.
 +
 
 +
He even did a funny commercial a while back for “Trigger the Vote” campaign.
 +
 
 +
Norris is an [[Air Force]] [[veteran]], [[martial arts|martial artist]] and [[actor]].
 +
 
 +
===Eric Clapton===
 +
According to an interview with The Sun in 2008, the rock singer [[Eric Clapton]] took up shooting in 2003 and has built up quite the collection of firearms including many high end shotguns.
 +
 
 +
The singer/songwriter said, “I like a gun to look like a working tool but it’s a magnificent piece of art as well.”
 +
 
 +
Clapton liquidated some of his collection in 2008.
 +
 
 +
“It is following the same pattern as when I collected guitars,” he says. “I get obsessed, then engulfed and finally narrow the collection down.”
 +
 
 +
Trust me Mr. Clapton, we can all relate.
 +
 
 +
===Gary Sinise===
 +
[[Gary Sinise]] gave a great, commonsense interview to Larry King (see below).
 +
 
 +
Sinise makes the point that it’s a Second Amendment right and that bad guys aren’t going to turn their weapons in so good people need to be able to protect themselves.
 +
 
 +
 
 +
===Joe Mantegna===
 +
[[Joe Mantegna]], the Criminal Minds star, has been an outspoken supporter of gun rights, giving interviews and hosting pro gun TV shows as well. Mantegna is an avid skeet shooter and competition shooter.
 +
 
 +
In an interview with the [[NRA]] magazine [[American Rifleman]]<ref>http://www.americanrifleman.org/articles/talking-with-joe-mantegna/ Accessed December 26, 2014</ref>, Mantegna sheds some light on his favorite guns.
 +
 
 +
I guess we’d have to break it down into categories. For a handgun? No question. It would be the [[M1911]]. That wasn’t the very first handgun I shot, but it was the one I ultimately used competitively. I just enjoy the [[caliber]], I’ve shot pretty much every handgun caliber you can think of, and the [[.45 ACP]] is perfect. It has mass, the recoil is a little more, you get a lot of push, but you don’t get a lot of torque. And it’s just the aesthetics of it—it’s old school—it’s what I carry on “Criminal Minds.” I made that choice as I thought this guy would be old-school and this would be the firearm he would carry. The M1911 is classic. I think it’s the first one we’re doing in our series “Gun Stories.”
 +
 
 +
 
 +
===Adam Baldwin===
 +
[[Adam Baldwin]] is no relation to the anti gun Baldwin brothers.
 +
 
 +
It wasn’t just Baldwin’s iconic character Jayne on [[Firefly]] and [[Serenity]] who liked guns. In real life Baldwin himself is also an avid gun owner and Second Amendment supporter.
 +
 
 +
Baldwin regularly uses his Twitter fan base of over 100,000 followers to promote pro gun articles and ideas.
 +
 
 +
Baldwin also wrote an editorial on [[Breitbart]] in the wake of the recent Sandy Hook shooting.<ref>http://www.breitbart.com/InstaBlog/2013/01/11/Godwin-s-Gun-Grabber-Salon Accessed December 26, 2014
 +
 
 +
 
 +
==Kevin Sorbo==
 +
[[Kevin Sorbo]] has regularly used his Facebook page (with over 150,000 followers) to talk about the issue of [[gun rights]]. Sorbo posted the following to one status update last year, “You can [take] all guns away and the bad guys will still get guns!! Do you honestly believe the bad guys care about any stupid law that is passed??!! This is why we call them bad guys!” It sounds like he gets it!
 +
 
 +
==R. Lee Ermey==
 +
The Gunny himself! [[R. Lee Ermey]] is a [[veteran]] [[Marine]] and accomplished actor now spends his time as one of the official spokesmen for [[Glock]] firearms. I’m pretty sure being pro-gun is a requirement for that job. Ermey can often be found at media events, gun shows and other public engagements to promote the Glock brand as well as firearms ownership overall.
 +
 
 +
==Dan Bilzerian==
 +
[[Dan Bilzerian]] has had minor roles in “Lone Survivor,” “Olympus Has Fallen,” and “The Other Woman.” He is also an accomplished professional poker player with reported winnings in the tens of millions of dollars.
 +
Over the last 2 years, Bilzerian has continued his movie and poker career, but has also become a social media celebrity. Between his Instagram, Facebook and Twitter accounts, Bilzerian has tens of millions of fans who follow him for his photos of beautiful women, extreme adventures, and his impressive gun collection, including numerous NFA items.
 +
 
 +
==Dean Cain==
 +
[[Dean Cain]] who played [[Superman]]. Yep, it seems like Superman himself is fairly pro-gun. The actor has repeatedly used his Twitter account to slam gun control policies and he told fellow celeb Rob Lowe that he “would be keeping his guns” during one exchange.
 +
Another celeb who gets it.
 +
 
 +
==S.E. Cupp==
 +
[[S.E. Cupp]] is a well known political commentator, writer and television host. Cupp is currently a regular on [[CNN]] and is a co-host of the popular television show [[Crossfire]]. Cupp regularly uses her position to speak out in favor of gun rights and gun ownership.
 +
 
 +
==James Hetfield (of Metallica)==
 +
[[James Hetfield]] of [[Metallica]]  is a strong supporter of both gun rights and hunting. In an interview with [[Field and Stream]] Magazine Hetfield is reported as saying the following, “I love my guns. I love that my dad handed them down to me, and I’m taking care of them. To me, though, some of the gun laws definitely don’t make any sense, but also the Second Amendment is very important to me.”
