Hollywoodsterren furieus na schietpartijen in El Paso en Dayton
Verschillende filmsterren hebben gereageerd op de schietpartijen in El Paso, Texas en Dayton, Ohio vorige week. Daarbij kwamen respectievelijk twintig en negen mensen om het leven. Er vielen ook tientallen gewonden.
“Mijn verontwaardiging is op,” tweet actrice Julianne Moore, “en vervangen door een vastberadenheid om een einde te maken aan geweld met vuurwapens.”
Bij beide schietpartijen werd gebruik gemaakt van zwaar geschut en atrice Jamie Lee Curtis herhaalde eindeloos op Twitter dat dergelijke wapens moeten verboden worden.
Actrice Bette Midler schreef dat Amerika in een oorlog met zichzelf verwikkeld is en sprak over terrorisme van eigen bodem.

America, we are at war with ourselves. Another mass shooting, this one in Dayton, Ohio. Let’s just call it what it is. #domesticterrorism

I am sick to my stomach over what has happened in El Paso today. I can’t believe this is happening in my country and no one is doing anything about it. Who has to die for laws to change?

Woke up to the news of #DaytonOH shooting. This senseless loss of life is unbearable. When will our US representatives give the people of this country the common sense gun laws we are all demanding? I’m calling my congressman. Again. @Everytown

When are we all going to admit that the biggest threat to Americans, terrorist or not, is ANGRY, WHITE MEN with guns?

Weapons of war used in department stores in America. Will it ever stop? Congress doesn't even try anymore, it's thoughts and prayers and back to the same fucking thing. So goddam depressing.

This is a nightmare that never ends. Hey! Let’s be exactly like NZ & Australia and ban these weapons designed to slaughter as many humans as possible. Get the pieces of do nothing shit out of office. Everyone vote. And a big F U to anyone who disagrees with sanity. We are done.

Why are you horrified? This is exactly the sort of thing that you, ESPECIALLY and SPECIFICALLY you, facilitate. It’s your cowardly self-interest that keeps these massacres happening. Keep your prayers. You don’t get to mourn. You only should feel shame, you empty greedy ghoul. pic.twitter.com/h7gVrU5Kvp
