We’re all heartbroken about the shooting in Thousand Oaks, California.
These things are truly awful… and prove we have a mental health crisis in America.
Ashton Kutcher, like most celebrities, wants to remind everyone that we don’t JUST need mental health care… we need GUN CONTROL.
This isn’t an either/or it’s a both!Support mental health initiatives & support Gun Reform Now!! My friend gave me a gun as a gift in the parking lot of the borderline on my birthday. I’ve never shot it. I don’t think I ever will.❤️to the families of the lost. Change is coming

Ok… here’s the thing. He’s LITERALLY proving gun laws DO NOTHING TO STOP PEOPLE.
How?
Well… the story he just told is ALREADY AGAINST THE LAW in California.
So…… you just admitted to breaking the law?

YUP.
I think Ashton Kutcher just admitted to violating California law. Firearms transfers have to go through a federally licensed firearms dealer who performs a background check and holds the firearm for the mandatory 10-day waiting period. https://t.co/GN0TH1kzeO

Not only did @aplusk just describe an illegal firearms transfer in California, he’s now in illegal possession of that gun. pic.twitter.com/npy1boIKIN

And he misses the obvious point. Several actually. If it’s that easy for him to receive a gun illegally, what laws – words on paper – could possibly prevent someone with criminal intent from doing the same.

BINGO. A GUN LAW didn’t stop him, did it?
HOW does he expect it to stop someone with CRIMINAL INTENT?!
But by ALL MEANS – make more laws.
They don’t stop people who SHOULDN’T have guns – they only infringe upon the rights of those who do.
Thank you, Ashton, for proving it.
