It's putting money into the pocket of someone who is actively supporting those trying to prevent me from using my 2nd amendment rights, man.

I would hope that more republicans would teach the filthy liberal a lesson.

I didn't care to see the movie. But he was on Stern last week and was soooo fucking funny. I had no idea he could be so self deprecating and hilarious. He had Stern dying laughing sometimes it was great. Now I want to see it.

He hosted Saturday Night Live about ten years ago now, and he was really quite funny, so I can believe it. After "Oscar" I bet he wouldn't touch a movie comedy with a ten foot pole, but I wish they would let him host again.

His political activities are very anti gun.

THE CITIZENS JOURNAL: Sylvester Stallone - Anti Gun activist with a CCW Permit

What a hypocrite. Just another instance of the elite, "I need a gun but you don't crowd." What's even worse than Stallone being an anti-gun activist promoting Brady Campaign Fundraisers in Hollywood and getting a rare California CCW permit is that the permits are indeed rare.

Do you think that a regular joe like you or me would get one in California ? I don't think so.

This from Rifle Gear, "In early June of 2007, Los Angeles County Sheriff Lee Baca was making headlines in the news because of his role in the sensational "Paris Hilton goes to jail" story that was all over the media. This incident started a flurry of allegations that Sheriff Baca gave special and preferential treatment to the stars and celebrities of Los Angeles County. In one article that was published on the web, it was alleged that Sheriff Baca had issued concealed carry weapons permits (CCW) to Hollywood stars such as Sylvester Stallone and Ben Affleck.
The rumor that Sylvester Stallone was issued a CCW permit struck my interest as I had recently been made aware that he had attended a Los Angeles event sponsored by the Brady Center to Prevent Gun Violence. The "Brady Bunch", as they are commonly referred to by gun-rights advocates, are one of the most well known organizations that are lobbying to take away our rights as lawful gun owners. I was also learning that Stallone had been quoted in the past saying some very anti-gun statements, even advocating door to door gun confiscations! I found all of this terribly hypocritical.

"Look at what's happening in America's inner-cities. If our hopeless legal system continues going the same liberal direction, there will be anarchy before long. We need one person in an influential position to stand up and tell the truth about gun control lobbies, the death penalty and that our criminal justice system basically stinks."Sylvester Stallone, interview in Cinefantastique magazine, June 1995

"until America, door to door, takes every handgun, this is what you're gonna have... It really is pathetic... We're livin' in the Dark Ages over there."Sylvester Stallone, March 28, 1998
"I know we use guns in films," but insisted the time has come "to be a little more accountable and realize that this is an escalating problem that’s eventually going to lead to, I think, urban warfare."Sylvester Stallone on Access Hollywood, June 8, 1998

"It [2nd Amendment] has to be stopped, and someone really has to go on the line, a certain dauntless political figure, and say, ‘It’s ending, it’s over, all bets are off. It’s not 200 years ago, we don’t need this anymore, and the rest of the world doesn’t have it. Why should we?"Sylvester Stallone on Access Hollywood, June 8, 1998

After writing a couple of letters to the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department and once being lied to by the Sheriff's Department he finally got the smoking gun he'd been looking for. It turns out according to records that Stallone applied for a CCW permit on September 29, 2004 and was issued a permit on November 30, 2004.

Busted.
