Need to apologize for posting this inaccurate thread.
Matthew McConaughey is not an Anti Gun guy after doing more research and reading other comments he has made.... Please shit on me for the next few pages..... This was the original article in question: http://downtrend.com/brian-carey/matthew-mcconaughey-on-the-2nd-amendment-lets-forget-that-right/ I'm sometimes too quick to jump on someone I think is an Anti Gun idiot. I'll make a donation to the NRA to make up for this bad post... |

Meh, he's allowed his opinion while pontificating hippie style, add long as he doesn't start making it some issue or crusade I'll give him a press this time...

He should focus more on pronouncing the letter s without whistling.

Is it just me or is that not what he's saying at all?
That's all it took?
When you're 4 years old, that's all it takes. I got a Redskins hat in my bag right now. What do you think about the calls for the team to change its name? Man, it's twofold. What interests me is how quickly it got pushed into the social consciousness. We were all fine with it since the 1930s, and all of a sudden we go, "No, gotta change it"? It seems like when the first levee breaks, everybody gets on board. I know a lot of Native Americans don't have a problem with it, but they're not going to say, "No, we really want the name." That's not how they're going to use their pulpit. It's like my feeling about gun control: "I get it. You have the right to have guns. But look, let's forget that right. Let's forget the pleasure you get safely on your range, because it's in the wrong hands in other places." View Quote ETA: He's comparing the people who were fine with the Redskins for 80 years then suddenly changed their mind to people who want to ban guns because it's the cause of the day because of some event. |

He attends church every Sunday he's in town with his Mother at the non-denominational congregation at Sun City, Tx (Georgetown). I've met him there before. Pleasant for a celeb. Too bad he's a banner...

He gets it. Bible thumping gun huggers like their guns. Like forget those rights. There's more important stuff than your feelings.

Apparently he was being sarcastic. I'll withdraw my statement for now.

After reading, I also don't think he is condemning the 2nd. I think what he's saying is, should we give up our gun rights because someone uses them in the wrong way.

He's all social justice warrior with the Redskins name. He's still going all social justice warrior with "it's in the wrong hands in other places". Like CC. Or the home. Or in your car. They belong on a range. Period. The 2nd amendment is about target practice/ sport. British style locked up on a range when not in use type analogy. That's what I'm reading. New age social justice warrior. Forget your rights. |

He was in Dazed And Confused and True Detective. I could care less what his opinion is.

I wasn't planning on seeing it anyway.
Maybe get it from the library later. |

After reading it a few more times I see what you are saying...
|

Yeah guys...he's on our side...he is quoting gun banners when he says that line...he is saying he disagrees with the people who say "I get it you have a right to own guns but forget that right...forget the use of them safely at the range because some people use them for evil..."
Get it? |

What did you expect from a liberal with ties to UT Austin? He seems to think people who want to ban guns are irrational, seems fine to me. Exactly. Read the original article.

He's a very good actor (anyone seen True Detectives?) and has a right to his opinion, which appears to support the RKBA. Even if he didn't, I can appreciate his talent without agreeing with his politics.

I never have any idea what he is talking about, he talks in circles.

I'll wait for the usual ARF "movie critic" peeps to pan it then go and most likely enjoy it.

Choke on it Matthew.
I don't intend on seeing interstellar anyway. Hippie dippie bullshit |

If you need a reason to not see Interstellar, I'd say there's a bigger one than gun control.
The Earth isn't becoming unlivable and crops failing because of "bad luck" or some sort of natural disaster. It's pretty clear that MMGW/Climate Change/pollution is to blame. Which of course is bunk. Even with a wormhole, even if MMGW/climate change were real, it would still be 10,000 X easier to make greenhouses, irrigation systems etc. to save as many people as you can vs. trying to abandon earth. |
