Oddly enough, from Breitbart’s BigHollywood.com:
On June 10 Battlestar Galactica actress Katee Sackhoff tweeted about gun safety and countered a follower’s pro-gun control tweet–as a result she lost half of her Twitter followers–or about 100,000 people.
And, further, her current job on Longmire.
Sackhoff’s original gun safety tweet was in response to a story CNN carried about a 4-year old Arizona boy who fatally shot his father by accident. The boy apparently found a handgun lying in a home he and his father were visiting, picked it up and pulled the trigger.
Sackhoff tweeted: “Please practice gun safety! This is horrible!”
After this, one of Sackhoff’s followers tweeted for more and more gun control. The actress responded: “Never going to happen in the U.S. Proper gun safety is a necessity though.”
As Reason.com reports, after a couple of hours Sackhoff had lost approximately 100,000 followers, but she did not give in. Instead she tweeted: “Well I guess just learned talking about #GunSafety inspires a massive debate. Pro-gun or Anti-gun SAFETY should be unanimous!”
And there you go. Common sense over sensationalism, and over rampant and idiotic emotions.
God bless Katee Sackhoff.

Once upon a time *The Truth Would Set You FREE*, that is no longer the case… PCness is the new order of the day and if you’re a Conservative in the entertainment business and you happen to be Pro-Guns and gun responsibility, you’re screwed…
Personally, I think she’s a damn fine actress, I like the Longmire program, mostly because of her, there is a serious LEFT HAND tilt to the program but it’s still a decent show..
And, quite frankly, I LOVED her in the new Battlestar Galactica because it was, after all, ALL about HER.
