Gun Control Group Brady Campaign Teams with Major Studios to Push Gun Control in Violent Hollywood Shows​

Hollywood and the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence are teaming up via CBS’s S.W.A.T. to include gun control messages during the show.

For example, CNN reported that in one episode, actor Shemar Moore’s character Daniel “Hondo” Harrelson comes home from a shift as a cop and makes sure to take his service firearm to the closet and lock it up before sitting down to talk with his wife.

Moore commented on the scene, saying, “I’m big badass Hondo, and I get out there and take down bad guys, but when I come home…I own a firearm, but it’s safe, it’s protected.”

The scene is a result of a collaboration between Hollywood and Brady’s “Show Gun Safety” campaign.

The “Show Gun Safety” website says:

Guns are prominently featured in television, art, music, and movies across the globe, but only America has a gun violence epidemic. In America, we have more guns than people. Every year, over 40,000 people are shot and killed. Our nation’s gun violence crisis impacts nearly every fabric of American life. It will take a comprehensive approach to end this epidemic, and changing the culture and behaviors around firearms must be part of the solution. The creative community can play a powerful role in leading those solutions.

The website also contains “principles” which they want Hollywood to follow:

1. Use our creativity to model responsible gun ownership and show consequences for reckless gun use. We will make a conscious effort to show characters locking their guns safely and making them inaccessible to children.
2. Have at least one conversation during pre-production regarding the way guns will be portrayed on screen and consider alternatives that could be employed without sacrificing narrative integrity.
3. Limit scenes including children and guns, bearing in mind that guns are now the leading cause of death for children and adolescents.

Ironically, Brady posits “over 40,000” as an approximate figure of gun deaths annual gun deaths but does not mention that over 60 percent of those deaths are the result of suicides rather than gun violence.

UC Davis pointed out this often overlooked fact regarding 2019 death figures: “There were 39,707 deaths from firearms in the U.S. in 2019. Sixty percent of deaths from firearms in the U.S. are suicides. In 2019, 23,941 people in the U.S. died by firearm suicide.” This means the number of gun violence deaths–i.e., homicides–in 2019 was approximately 15,766, a much lower figure than “over 40,000” and not as easy to use for gun control fund raising.

Just for informational purposes.

On NCIS they keep their guns in drawers while in office, and have for 132 years. CPD puts theirs in locked lockers when interrogating a prisoner, with good reason.

There is nothing wrong with good gun safety practices.

When it goes off the rails is when they force people to lock up their guns at home, when they have guns for self defense. And make it a criminal offense when you don't.

If you have children, you are in a different world. You really need to take steps to protect them from inquisitive minds and play things, as they see it. Back in the old days they use to put their long guns over the door or fireplace. Still a good practice, but what do you do with pistols? Leave the magazine out and chamber empty?

FJB and FHW. Neither are needed, neither are wanted- but by the traitors and the brain dead…

Seems to me that the last place you want a loaded long gun is above the heat of a fire. The heat could cause problems building up pressure in a round, or could perhaps warp the barrel, etc.

My parents told us: You cannot "kid-safe" guns, You must "gun-safe" kids.
Any measure that would "kid-safe" your guns is a hinderance to self-defense.
When seconds count, locks fail and people fumble.

But then again, we live in a rural area, with all of the common sense that entails.

Can they do medical doctor shows next since malpractice kills way more than the boomsticks?

Back in the old days, my father taught me about firearms... Did something change???

My son and I spent two hours this weekend doing hand gun training with my 11 and 12 year old grandchildren and my daughter. We did proper drawing from a holster, made sure fingers were off triggers, malfunction clearing, laser cartridge practice with a cool cell phone app that tracks your hits and so on. We emphasized keeping fingers off triggers and nuzzle discipline. We will move on to live fire soon. My son was a police firearms instructor, shoot house instructor and active shooter instructor. I was on SWAT for several years. We will have the kids very well trained over the next several months. After my son gets them up to speed shooting, I will teach them entry. When we got that done I sighted in a new build. The 3x magnifier helped my old eyes. I never liked them before this year but I guess it is time.

True, but the only gun i keep out is the one that's on my person, so i don't worry about the kids.

I am REALLY SURPRISED that they got "Shemar's Abs" to go along with that.

More fathers/mothers need to do that.

We were at the range on our club, back when deer season started in Nov. having a great time. And about 4-5 cars pulled up, everybody jumped out, and started putting their guns and ammo on the table. A bunch of people on a range without a range instructor/controller doesn't sit to well in the first place. You got a couple of people no harm, no foul courtesy rules the day.

This one guy put his weapon down next to me, and his kid sits down behind the rifle, and starts looking down range with his finger on the trigger. I asked him if he was going to shoot? (we all had our muffs off, and nobody was paying attention) His father comes busting in and say Naw he just likes to look through the scope. Then the father takes off down range, without asking if anyone was going to shoot. Tears down all of our targets and puts his up.

I see what this is, a father who thinks he owns the club just because he is a member, and will stick up for his kid, even if he is in the wrong. I left. Wasn't worth getting shot over. BTDT with members before.

Good gun safety, and good range management is always a good thing.

Glad you are doing it.

Very true

When it goes off the rails is when they force people to lock up their guns at home, when they have guns for self defense. And make it a criminal offense when you don't.

Exavtly as they do in Csnuckistan. Of course if you were present when some armed individual was breaking i to your abode snd you capped the invader, LEOS would investigate the time ot took you gathet yoi locked firearm snd suitabley stored ammo, unlock all, load and engage the jnvader.

If you were too quick, there'd be another charge of storing a firearm unsafely (i.e. loaded).


that'll all be moot anon as TURDO II is set to have all handguns confiscated as the owners pass away.

And yes, that's ALL Handguns, includinguding SAA clones used for CAS AND War memorabilia

If you have children, you are in a different world. You really need to take steps to protect them from inquisitive minds and play things, as they see it. Back in the old days they use to put their long guns over the door or fireplace. Still a good practice, but what do you do with pistols? Leave the magazine out and chamber empty?

If JB&CO prevails & clones the Cdn Firearms Act, su h evil drvices would be at least double locked and ammo seperately lock away.


Fineswine tried get that through the senate & into law about 20-25 years ago.

I think these shows should lead by example. Guns arent good enough for us, then they aren’t good enough for Hollywood either. No exemptions. The should make movies and shows that are watchable without the violence.

You're asking a lot of Hollywierd & it's associates.

Personally, I don't think the hypocrits are up to the challenge . . . .

 

[naegling62]

I’m a gun enthusiast. I enjoy a good movies. I really think Hollywood over uses “guns are the answer” scenario. Just like in the old movies where folks get shot and it’s no big deal. It is a “big deal” lives are changed forever many times. People who hate guns love to use gun violence as the solution in entertainment.

THAT IS TRUTH THERE!
