Can you believe the hypocrisy?

Actors and actresses in anti-gun Hollywood will be surrounded by armed security on Sunday as they attend the 77th annual Golden Globes.

New York Daily News reports Beverly Hill Police Department Capt. Michael Hill saying, “We have a robust security plan that includes assistance from our local, state, and federal law enforcement partners. Additionally, we will be using the most contemporary technologies in an attempt to ensure the ceremony is held without incident.”

Breitbart News reported that 2019 security included barricades, bomb-sniffing dogs, armed guards, LAPD officers, and numerous security checkpoints for attendees as they arrived for the Golden Globes.

Golden Globes security has been high level for many years. Breitbart News noted that the January 8, 2017, Golden Globes were surrounded by good guys with guns and body armor. There were also security dogs, SWAT, and special FBI teams taking part in security.

Breitbart noted that Matt Damon was at the 2017 awards, the very Matt Damon who made millions of dollars using guns in the Bourne film series, yet called for an Australia-like gun ban for the rest of America. Other gun controllers, including Jessica Chastain and Ryan Reynolds, were also in attendance, enjoying the benefits of good guys with guns while fighting off-screen to limit those benefits for average Americans.

These are people who believe government can handle normal people's lives and make decisions for them, better than the normal people themselves can.

And they also believe that the structure of our country permits them to go ahead and make those decisions.

They are wrong on both counts, deeply so. But if you point that out to them, they will simply decide you are an ignorant and evil bumpkin.

(Strike three.)

Golden boobs. They can hardly make a show without guns and explosives. Part II simply means more guns and explosives

Its almost as if there are certain people that care about gun laws and certain people that just want security. Neither possibly care about one another... Despite living in the same state...

True that. They aren't armed with facts nor talent nor usefulness.
