If you didn't catch Matthew Mcconaughey from the White House breifing room, live, You need to

[White 6]

I cannot post the video, not out yet, but it will undoubtedly be available later. No matter what side of the gun debate, or what party you belong to, or like me, not a party member, you need to see his presentation, on the Uvalde shooting and his plea for reforms to stop this ongoing carnage across our country.

As a gun owner, raised with guns, trained to be responsible with weapons by my own dad, I can say I support his message of being able to advance legislation that will move us forward and indeed make the 2nd amendment even more relevant, than we are being sold by both sides of the political divide. Saying the 2nd amendment is paramount to considerations of protecting our kids, our schools, our churches, our public spaces, must take precedence. To do otherwise, out of hand, as usual is bullshit.

Actor Matthew McConaughey gives impassioned speech for gun reform in White House briefing

Actor Matthew McConaughey delivered an emotional White House appeal for gun regulations in the wake of last month's massacre in his hometown of Uvalde, Texas.

He is talking for gun owners? No gun owner I ever listen to talk talks like this. Does he own a gun? When he starts talking about what the government is going to do about criminals and guns instead of hurting legal gun owners. Then maybe I will listen.

[yidnar]

i didnt see his message as ant 2nd amendment ...

Who cares he is an actor with writers to write his speeches.

 

[basquebromance]

Let me get this straight: Matthew McConaughey is AGAINST dead kids?

Sir, your bravery leaves me awestruck

 

[The Irish Ram]

He also heaped accolades on Fauci at a star studded party for the little Nazi..

 

[Canon Shooter]

I don't have a problem with what he had to say...

The debate and appropriate application of regulation, does not take place, as it is cut off by the supposed supremacy of the 2nd amendment, as if doing anything negates it, but it doesn't and never did. What we are paying for in carnage has to be addressed. We are electing representatives to do something, yet they are stymied at even having the conversation. McConaughey is correct. Responsible gun owners are closer together on knowing something must be done than we are being told and sold by media, the loudmouths and the NRA. It is not a partisan issue it is literally, day by day becoming and has become a survival issue, honest middle of the road loyal Americans want addressed.

Normally, I would agree, but not this time. He is from Uvalde, I am not, but it looks like he was brought up as I and I agree with his speech and chose to bring it to the message board for consideration.

 

[White 6]

Thank you very much MisterBeale for posting it, as it was not available when I started the thread.

 

[Confederate Soldier]

Holy shit, you made a thread about something other than black people.

 

[bodecea]

Who cares he is an actor with writers to write his speeches.

He's from Uvalde. But then again, you wouldn't care even if he had lost a family member.

 

[bodecea]

His private security guards do.

Will he need them now against the "well-regulated militia"?

 

[Missourian]

The answer to infringement is always no.
