Gotta love James Woods! Conservative actor James Woods was quick with a response Thursday after left-leaning fellow thespian Alyssa Milano decried the recent surge in gun sales in the U.S. “Americans bought over 2 million firearms in March of 2020, over a million more than this time last year,” wrote Milano, who backs Joe Biden’s presidential campaign. Tying the gun statistics to the coronavirus outbreak, Milano then shared her advice for how the public should deal with the crisis. “We have to keep each other safe by social distancing and washing our hands and not bringing dangerous firearms into our homes,” she wrote, adding the hashtags, #StopTheCoronavirusGunSurge and #NoRA. In his reply, Woods suggested some gun buyers may have very pragmatic safety reasons for planning weapons purchases. “Thank you for the reminder,” Woods wrote to Milano in retweeting her post. “When the looting starts, always be prepared. Buy more ammo!” Some recent news seemed to back Woods’ concerns. With many businesses closed and Americans struggling to find items they need amid the outbreak, reports of burglaries and other crimes have been in the news. In California, authorities in Stanislaus County said this week that 10 suspects had been charged with looting, which refers to thefts that occur during emergency situations. Police in Modesto say a man and woman were recently seen in a store parking lot pushing a shopping cart containing about $400 in items for which they allegedly hadn’t paid, the Modesto Bee reported. The woman was arrested but the man remained at large. In another incident, police arrested two men who allegedly broke into surrounding businesses so they could access the ATMs at a Wells Fargo Bank branch, the Bee reported. In New York City, police say burglaries at commercial addresses have risen 75 percent since March 12, when Mayor Bill de Blasio declared a state of emergency, The Wall Street Journal reported. Seattle has seen burglaries rise 21 percent, including an 87 percent spike in the city’s downtown area, police recently told radio station KTTH-AM. Rising crime and rising anxiety – such as that prompted by the coronavirus pandemic -- often lead to a rise in gun sales, gun store owners and others recently told Fox News. "Firearms are a psychological symbol of being safer in uncertain times,” Dennis Santiago, a California-based firearms instructor, and financial risk analyst, said last month. “People will gravitate to them. They are not acquiring them to use them. They are purchasing them, hoping they won't have to.” https://www.foxnews.com/entert...-tweet-buy-more-ammo | ||

Alyssa Milano is nothing but a has been liberal mouth piece. She is the SeeNSay toy of the left. Pull the string, and she's good for hours of liberal family fun. "The cow says.....cows must be banned to save the planet". "The turkey says......Orange man bad" "The rooster says......Joe Biden deserves due process in his sexual assault allegations (but a conservative never does)" | |||

Perhaps, but at her peak, she was more pleasant to the eye than Mr Woods. For an actor / actress, that is about the full expectation that I have for any of them. To hope for more is somewhat folly on our own part. | |||

Both of these people are acclaimed actors, but one of them is intelligent, well spoken and attractive. The other one is Alyssa Milano. | |||

F...123, Say what? B/c someone is pleasant to look at, you elevate their opinion? It’s not folly to care about their political views, if actors want to shoot their goddamn pieholes off on topics they no zero about or that oppose mine 100%. I make it a point to hold such accountable by exercising my consumer right to not watch their shit and mute them whenever their sorry, liberal, good-looking or not visages cross my path. | |||
