Rapper Ice-T on Gun Control

He said the same thing we said at work today.

Good to hear him say that but i don't think that sways the anti gun crowd. True anti gunners, ala the English outcome, hear that and say "that's why you have to get rid of all guns!" My gun ownership logic isn't based on "because the bad guy may have a gun". If all guns in the world magically disappeared tomorrow my kids, parents, and eventually myself (I'm not getting younger) will be basically defenseless against even an average young physically fit punk.

We need to change cultural norms so that the handgun is once again referred to as the great equalizer.

great video. As he states, do you really want to be the one without one if something happens? So very well put as well. Much more elequent then that rant by the nobody on Seinfield, or however you spell it. Never cared for the show,

Agree on it, not that its lame. Hell, I call them Hollyweird too

Outstanding statements!

Well said.

Today I find myself hating George Costanza and loving Ice-T. It feels like bizarro world.

odd day, i am saying well done to a rapper... he was spot on. the 2a is the LAST line of defense against a tyranical .gov

 

[TopDog]

I am pleasantly surprised. I dont know that much about the man, I didn't know he was pro gun. But he was well spoken and thoughtful with his answers.

I was reading the comments on the youtube page. I'm pretty sure it is the only time in my life I will see, "Paul and Ice T in the white house!"

So what would the anti-gun crowd have done if the Aurora shooter came back in the theater with a chain saw?

Blame video games/hollywood/Stihl. Bloomberg would complain about how easily accessible these flesh ripping death machines are. Costanza would show how most chainsaws are overkill for cutting down the average sapling. Rosie O'Donnell would be fat somewhere, probably complaining through the syruppy Hostess-snack crust that has developed around her Twinkie intake.

Wow, that was so awesomely put, that I had to quote it, so I could see it again. Nice.

 

[jgreiner]

Always like him as an actor, now I have even more of a reason to enjoy his work.

 

[Westside]

Wow! Completely unexpected by me, and I am very pleasantly surprised.

did not expect that answer. I figured he would be pro-gun but that was a great answer.

 

[Kutnupe14]

When I can avoid thinking about his "Cop Killer" song, he's "meh"

 

[littletommy]

I've always liked his acting! I heard him speak a few years back and gained a new respect for him then. Good for him!

 

[Excalibur]

Wow, that is unexpected for an old rapper

 

[repeter1977]

As pointed out, he probably understand the reasons behind having firearms more then others. I would like to think I know the mechanics behind it, and the main reasons, but sounds like he knows that and more. Always nice to see when someone educates themselves before they speak. And I am sure this is not the first time he has had this debate either.
