Red Carpet Politics: Dustin
Hoffman Tells Piers Morgan
‘God Bless You For What You’re
Saying About Gun Control’

Mediaite, by Matt Wilstein

Original Article

Posted By:KarenJ1, 2/25/2013 10:08:57 AM

Dustin Hoffman could be appearing on Piers Morgan Tonight in the near future. Piers Morgan caught up with the legendary actor (and recent first-time director) on the red carpet for the Academy Awards, and the two talked about more than just Hollywood. Hoffman revealed that he’s a big fan of Morgan’s, saying he doesn’t often get “starstruck” but felt “extraordinary” to be standing next to the CNN host. At the tail end of a short conversation about the Oscars and Hoffman’s new film Quartet, Hoffman told Morgan “God bless you for what you’re saying about gun control,”

Comments:
The hypocrisy of these morons is beyond tiresome. What would they do without their bodyguards?? Oh that´s right, it never applies to them.

A licensed, trained bodyguard having a gun is different from a psychotic person with schizophrenia having a gun. Those supporting gun rights need to suggest solutions to keep guns out of the hands of people who are delusional/psychotic.

This from a person who thinks it´s a breakthrough to get Maggie Smith to use the F word in his movie. Scheesh!

suggestion to keep guns out of psychopaths hands: how about following current laws?

but this presupposes that innocent people deserve to have their rights violated because someone else causes problems. Should we ban all cars because some people drive drunk? Should we have the government monitor all peoples internet use because some people use it for illegal things like child pornography?

although the Gun Control advocates are probably just fine with All State Control, All The Time.

A trained permit holding citizens is different from a psychotic person with schizophrenia. So why does the Kneepad Media and Democrat party treat them the same? Or is the difference permit holders are protecting their knuckle-dragging selves and loved ones while bodyguards are protecting a major source of Democrat funding? And the real issue isn’t scary looking weapons in the hands of a nutcase, but any weapon in the hands of a gang, drug dealer or scorned lover/spouse. Keep the guns out of a nut jobs hands and mass murder is prevented once a decade or so. That still leaves the 99%ers out there killing.

#1, every LEGAL NY handgun owner undergoes a months long vetting process, so what? Does that make NY state safer than Vermont? No. Did the rigorous NY process stop Colin Ferguson or the Webster hammer murderer? No. Ferguson went out of state, lied, broke the law there, then traveled back to NY, broke more laws, then shot up a L.I. commuter train. The Webster killer traded drugs for some guns, breaking multiple laws, but since he beat his relative to death with a hammer, laws didn´t really bother him.

Try shifting your focus from the NRA which has tried in vain to get Democrat mayors to enforce Project Exile, to the ACLU and some parole boards which changed the laws to allow maniacs like Ferguson and the Webster murderer to walk among us.

Dustin Hoffman is just another sheeple from NYC. He has somehow many a fortune by pretending to be someone else, so understandably he thinks he is better than gun owners who he thinks are evil. He tried to mimic Buckley when playing Captain Hook, because William F. Buckley was the ´most evil person he could think of.´ Straw Dogs, Dusty.

A supposed “artiste” i.e. he reads scripts well, whose views on any subject are no more valuable than anyone else’s and--given his one year at Santa Monica College--very probably less, wailing about the guns and violence that Hollywood glorifies and presents 24/7, and which, along with sex, forms their chief product line and money maker, and then leaves, likely trailed by an armed bodyguard or two.

#1, until you can suggest a solution to keep cars out of the hands of people who drive under the influence and kill innocent people, you are not allowed to drive a car.

See how that works?

Law abiding citizens of the United States do NOT have to suggest ANYthing in order to justify our Constitutional right to bear arms. We have that right regardless of what criminals or the insane do.

Didn´t Dustin Hoffman live next door to a bunch of Weathermen who blow themselves while trying to make a bomb, in NYC, 1960s-ish?

Yep, gun control would have stopped THOSE guys!

Especially ironic when one considers California´s already draconian firearms laws, and the widely reported fact that the area around the Academy Awards was essentially an armed camp, manned by paid bodyguards and taxpayer-funded law enforcement.

If only the commoners had the means and/or were "entitled" to such protection. . .

Anyway one can get Hollywood to donate funding to pay for armed guards for families in South Central or Crenshaw?

At a Democratic National Committee fund raising event in Atherton, California Thursday morning, President Obama declared that the United States government still needs to get its fiscal house in order: We still waste money in all kinds of things that don´t work, and we have the capacity to shift those dollars into things that do work and that will grow our economy. And we can reduce our deficit, stabilize our debt, and do so without sacrificing the kinds of investments that are going to be required to grow. During his remarks, the president spoke of the

Michael Pfleger, the controversial Catholic priest who made racial remarks about Hillary Clinton and defended Louis Farrakhan, has been removed as a keynote speaker at a diversity day event sponsored by a federal government agency. A spokesperson for the Broadcasting Board of Governors told Fox News that Pfleger’s office has been notified that his invitation to address the group has been rescinded. “This is an event that is meant to celebrate inclusiveness and diversity,” spokesperson Lynne Weil told Fox News. “It was deemed by our senior management that it was not appropriate to have him as a speaker.”

First key fight in immigration battle

One of the first political issues negotiators must tackle in crafting an immigration reform bill is among the most important: what to name it. It’s a decision that will bruise egos, create legacies and deeply affect subsequent messaging battles. “Every time the bill is mentioned in the press, you either have a brand that´s positive or a brand that doesn´t mean anything or even hurts you,” said Frank Sharry, the executive director of the pro-immigration reform group America’s Voice. The wrong name, he warned, could doom a good bill. “If there´s not a

In a revelation that may have Colorado voters rethinking their state’s push on gun control, court documents revealed that the mass shooting in Aurora that killed 12 and injured 70 more could have been prevented by law enforcement. The psychiatrist for suspect, James Holmes, had warned campus police that Holmes was dangerous and homicidal a month before the shooting took place. Lynne Fenton even told the police that Holmes had begun to stalk and threaten her, and yet no action was apparently taken: A University of Colorado psychiatrist told campus police a month before the Aurora

President Obama is eager to build public support for his health care overhaul in the few months remaining before its implementation, but waning enthusiasm from Democrats threatens his effort right out of the gate. Two-thirds of Democrats now believe Obama´s health care reforms will either hurt them personally or have no effect on their daily lives, a Quinnipiac University poll released Thursday shows. In comparison, just 27 percent of Democratic respondents said the reforms would help them. The president has long struggled to convince independent and Republican-leaning voters that his health care blueprint would lower premiums and expand insurance coverage.

President Obama´s biggest gaffe yesterday when speaking of California Attorney General Kamala Harris was not in flirtatiously complimenting her as "the best-looking attorney general," but in introducing an observation from the system of beauty into a forum that was about the system of power.What´s that, you say?

No one is more preoccupied these days with Hillary Clinton´s 2016 plans than the Beltway political class—not even the former presidential candidate herself. To hear some tell it, her decision will be dispositive for all other Democrats thinking of entering the race. And pundits and reporters aren´t the only ones positing the "The Hillary Factor": No less than the House Democratic whip, Steny Hoyer, told BuzzFeed, “I don´t know that anybody would run against Hillary…. If she runs, she clears the field.” It´s an understandable conclusion, given Clinton´s stature in the Democratic Party and her 70 percent

The Obama White House is scrambling to blame Friday’s abysmal March jobs numbers on the sequester’s trimming of the rate of growth in federal budgets that have yet to fully commence. After the Labor Department announced that a mass exodus of 663,000 workers left the U.S. workforce last month and that job creation fell 112,000 jobs short of projections, Obama’s top economic adviser Alan B.

The 34-year-old information management officer was one of four Americans murdered in the Benghazi embassy attack on September 11, 2012. In the chilling interview, a distraught Ms. Smith, in tears, pleaded for answers and spoke of the efforts to silence her. Ms. Smith first relayed how her son, prior to the attack, requested additional security in advance and warned the State Department: He did tell them, ahead of time, he typed it into his little typewriter over there,
