What pro 2A celebrities think doesn't mean much if it isn't reported. What we really need is more pro 2A reporters in the MSM to report more pro 2A news.
We need to have more pro-2nd Amendment celebrities like this

Ahh, more of those tricky "half-liberals" that don't belong in the olde whyte guy bloc ?
Thats some rogue logic you got there, and I like it
Mebbe we can scrape some common sense and decency together and contact them. Sounds like a start to me.
We need to convince air head voters that "celebs" don't know squat about most things. I don't see any purpose to them in our culture. I respect good acting skills but we all know that celebrity goes way beyond talent. Those people live for it and are often willing to die trying to get it. That is sick IMO. Literally sick. I don't care if that's the way things are. They shouldn't be and my efforts will go to turn people's thinking away from star worship.
Warp is right. We still have "May Issue" laws in places where the rich and famous get protection while we are only the people they get protected from. That's not right. America was founded to end that baloney and I'm sticking to the law of the constitution as it is plainly written as long as I possibly can.

Whats the real reason fot this headline?
Call me skeptical, but its kind of funny how this story was released right around the same time that his new "war" movie comes out.
I'm sure that he could care less about the common folk, and is just trying to spur interest in his latest film.
Whether the statement about him being a gun enthusiast generates negative interest from the liberals, or positive interest from the conservatives... it still generates interest and headlines at a time that his new film hits the box office.
I don't see him out there spending his millions to help the cause!
Does anyone know if he's a member of the NRA?

I like it.
Surely he's saying it in connection to the new movie but I don't see anything disingenuous with it. Firearms use in the film leads to the topic in an interview. Seems quite valid and reasonable.
I read and watched the interview and found it to be well presented, rational and nicely supported. The overt statement as to a firearm being a sound component of one's own security was especially gratifying. No qualifiers, no extreme statements... I liked it.
I think another aspect to this - and I don't fault a fella for protecting his income, when honest - is an awareness of the impact of tools making overt anti 2A/gun owner statements.
Make no mistake, the people like me that are ABSOLUTELY 100% UNFORGIVING with regards to jerks like Stallone and Neeson are making an impact to their bottom lines and then of course to the producer's bottom line as well. Social media is priceless in spreading the word after these jack-wagons spout off offensively about American firearm ownership.

Pitt, 2A issues, Colin Noir.....
As noted, Brad Pitt is 50. He's been in the film/TV industry since the mid 1980s.
His 2A or politics have no real bearing on me(just like my views or lifestyle has no bearing on him).
The US general public doesn't need celebs to dictate what they should do or how they should think.
I wouldn't call Pitt's 2A views refreshing either. There are 100s of entertainment industry professionals or actors/singers who are pro-2A, support the US armed forces or veterans & have conservative views but they aren't public about it. Some avoid expressing their beliefs because they want to work in the mostly liberal/anti gun industry or they don't want get a "label" & be singled out.
The late actor; Paul Walker of the Fast & Furious action films was a excellent target shooter & 2A supporter. His father shot match grade 1911a1s & was widely known in ISPC circles.
As for minorities, the NRA, www.NRAfreestyle.tv has Dallas Texas area atty; Colin Noir. He's young, "fresh", hip & urban.
I don't agree with all his remarks or politics but he's a good host for the NRA that wants new younger members.

I think we've made some real strides in Hollywood. Joe Mantegna is the real deal, a guy with his own star on Hollywood Boulevard and the star of a hit television series, and he's 100%. The fact that GUN STORIES is a net positive for Joe has NOT gone unnoticed!
I had lunch with Dean Cain last time I was out Playing Hollywood, and I'd love to build a firearms-oriented series for him!
Incidentally, one of the top acting coaches takes his students to the range to get his students out of their comfort zones. I'm planing on taking one of hs acting seminars just for the heck of it.
I recently read the book CONSERVATIVE INSURGENCY...you should read it as well...and Alinsky, too. Culture war is a bear, but it's what we have!
BTW, shamelss plug here, 2nd Quarter 2015 we're rolling out a "Duck Dynasty"-type show featuring Jerry Miculek and his wonderful family. I believe we can cross this show over to a wider audience WITHOUT compromising the solid gun content.
We are playing for very big stakes here...

Actually, according to the State Bar of Texas, he practices in Houston. And it is Colion, not Colin and that is not his real name anyway.

Noir....
Noir's own official IG background says he's from Houston Texas but lives-works in Dallas.
To my knowledge, he's a atty & has a JD.
I'm not sure what his real or legal name is but that's not a big issue.
Many celebs use stage names or fake names due to union regs or legal issues(privacy).
If I were in the shooting sports industry, Id be reluctant to do a unscripted series or gun related show.
The whole Red Jacket Firearms/Sons of Guns mess is a good example.
The Wyatt family/American Guns series seemed fake & stale. It had decent production values but I think the US political climate in the late 2012/early 2013 worked against it.

I've had the pleasure of meeting Brad and Angelina while working on the film, 'Twelve Years a Slave'. They loved talking guns and are both very friendly, nice and polite people - which is rare amongst movie stars.
Angelina has collected guns from every movie she has starred in that had her carrying guns. Alsoplustoo, she is incredibly beautiful in person. Just sayin'...

I'm not so sure you are right about Stallone. I used to shoot at the Beverly Hills Gun Club (located in West LA, not Beverly Hills) when he was a part owner and even though I never ran into him there I understood he was anything but anti 2A. I may be wrong though.

Both Brad and Angelina have been pretty open about their guns and ownership many times, not just before this movie.
There was even a rumor of him buying her a gun range a little while back.

Chef Alton Brown is such a cool guy, I believe he is a big time firearms enthusiast.
Rumors abound that Sarah Michelle Gellar supports our cause as well.

It would be more interesting to hear how these celebrities feel about background checks, deregulating NFA items, loosening import restrictions, concealed carry, open carry, carry permits, etc.
But, I really only watch them on tv to be entertained. Don't really care about or pay attention to their politics, whichever way they lean.

the support for fully-automatic Uzis being sold without any background check and then you can carry them openly afterwards is very slim.... but good luck finding a celebrity supporting that

Joe is the main reason I started watching Criminal Minds. It's now a can't miss for me.
Thinking back, Leslie Easterbrook was a Hollywood type that bucked the tradition of Hollyweird antis. She was heavily into guns, and supremely hot back in the 80s.
