One of the many reasons I despise Hollywood

I agree, many hypocrites, but not all of them; remember Charlton Heston.  :)

Thy hypocrisy doesn't just end at the movie theater.  Many of these Hollywood folk denounce firearm ownership, yet they own guns of employ armed bodyguards themselves.  It is ok for them because they are important.

There are a few on the side of gun owners, but not enough that will speak up for fear of not being employed.  Tom Selleck and Joe Mantegna are a couple that come to mind.

Glad to hear Tom Selleck is one of them.  I really didn't know, but I like him in most of his roles.

After Quigley Down Under came out Tom Selleck donated the Shiloh Sharps rifle used in the movie to the NRA for a fundraising auction.  He's one of the good guys. 

I need to watch that movie again, for about the 400th time.  It's the reason I own a Sharps.

bullit:
Selleck is a long time board member of the NRA.  Pay particular attention to his gun handling skills in the Jessie Stone series and you can see he's had lots of training.  And last I could tell, he carries a "Gunsite" 1911.
