Any Madonna fans out there??? Check out her new music video, embedded below, called “God Control.” In it, the 60-year-old songwriter uses graphic imagery, a shooting at a night club, to marshal the masses against the Second Amendment.
“This is your wake up call,” said the Queen of Pop upon releasing the video Wednesday. “Gun violence disproportionately affects children, teenagers and the marginalized in our communities. Honor the victims and demand GUN CONTROL. NOW.”
“Volunteer, stand up, donate, reach out. Wake up and insist on common-sense gun safety legislation. Innocent lives depend on it,” she added while inviting fans and viewers to join pro-gun-control organizations like Everytown for Gun Safety and March for Our Lives.
Madonna, like so many other celebs, lacks perspective. Despite what the mainstream media says over and over and over again, gun violence has not reached “epidemic” proportions in recent years. Society is, in fact, much safer today than it was in the ’80s and ’90s.
To give you one example, Madonna cites gun violence against children in her statement. Does she know that children were four times more likely to get gunned down in schools in the early ’90s than they are today?
I doubt it.
As James Alan Fox, the Lipman Family Professor of Criminology, Law, and Public Policy at Northeastern pointed out last year in an eye-opening report following the Parkland attack, “There is not an epidemic of school shootings.”
Fox, who is known for his unbiased research on mass killings, noted that more kids die each year swimming in pools and riding bikes than are murdered at the hand of a school shooter.
The professor also said that while he favors banning bump stocks and raising the purchase age of black rifles from 18 to 21, he doesn’t believe that any specific policy would stop a determined killer.
“The thing to remember is that these are extremely rare events, and no matter what you can come up with to prevent it, the shooter will have a workaround,” Fox explained, pointing out that over the past 35 years there have been only five cases where an 18- to 20-year-old used an “assault weapon” in a mass killing.
Does this mean we do nothing to prevent these tragedies? Of course not. Better school security, better counseling for troubled students, better parenting — would all help to make a positive difference on this front.
What doesn’t help, though, is when an uninformed pop star calls for sweeping policies designed to strip away the singular Amendment that safeguards our freedoms, including our right to defend ourselves and our children from those who would do us harm.
WOW, coming from a woman in the 80’s that was rubbing herself all over a cross in a sexual manner in one video and doing a strip act in front of a minor in another video. I have always thought this person was garbage from the beginning. And as others in this post have brought up about this individual, she has no room to talk.
PS, the video sucks by the way but seeing how society is today where right is wrong and wrong is right, evil is good and good is evil, she will probably get a Grammy award for this horrible video.
Queen of pop? More like queen of fools. This piece of white trash said that she “thought about blowing up the white house”. Why wasn’t she questioned by the secret service? Then she glorifies mass murders? Stupid as hell, and thinks that if the Democrats get total control, that they won’t come after the “useful idiot’s” like her when she outlives her usefulness to them. Hollywood stars,musicians, authors “journalists, &anybody else who thinks that the Democrats are saviors of America, not only don’t have a clue, they need to pull there heads out of their asses. We know they won’t, because none of them have a winch big enough to get the job done! God help us.
Interesting perspective, from the woman how kept her mouth shut when she was physically abused by her nut case ex husband, Sean Penn. So, now she is pro gun control..
What imbecilic old whore, your 15 minutes of fame has expired. Please leave the stage because nobody is interested in your delusional thoughts anymore.
The same person who offered oral sex in exchange for people to vote for Hillary Clinton trying to lecture us about morality associated with gun control?? WTF!?
Some criminal moron will shoot something up and when a forensics search his/her social media footprint is done, guess what’ll be there as his insperation?
No doubt that the Far Left anti gun entertainment industry will dig up some cheap as award for her.
Shitty beat and you can’t dance to it.
Dang wat an idiot. She needs to travel into the Alaskan interior and meet with grizzlies to convince them to become vegan.
Just another sad old whore trying to stay relevant well past her prime. Sad…so very sad.
This is fake on so many levels I can’t even count. This is the delusional preaching to the uninformed.
So Modanna is making money off “guns and gun violence” just like her Hollywood friends do by pretending they are “Making a political statement” . But really it’s just a ruse to get people to buy her crap pretending they are being SJW’s/
And this is the same woman who said, quote: I would like to blow up the White house! And she is advocating Gun Control? It is people like her who needs psychiatric help along with those who display this kind of mental issues.
How to succeed in old age stardom:
Step 1. Produce and promote political propaganda.
Step 2. Get paid.
As if we need to take any advise from a disease infested filthy unclean who-re.
I can understand peoples outcry over gun violence. But it is a symptom, not the cause. Thew cause is the lack of a mental health system that works. Socialism is not the cure. For the price of socialism is your freedom, the end of our collective individual freedoms. No longer will we be citizens of the United States of America. We will be the subjects of the Socialist Democratic Republic of America. Subjects, that are subject to the whims of the ruling few. Socialism, aka Communism, will stifle the free will, free though of all who are forced to live under it. Think that I am a liar, then see it first hand in the documentary, “Tiananmen: The People Versus the Party.” See the horror that the second amendment prevents. Don’t be sheeple, lambs led to the slaughter!
Poore, Richard
She’s an attention seeking whore. Go f**k yourself Madonna.
She should stick to what she knows.
I don’t try to tell her how to sing or perform.
What “I” know – that “She” does not know:
There is one Sure Way to Stop the Killers Cold in their tracks.
But it cannot be done in “Gun Free Zones”.
How? – Simple Concept – You shoot them in the head ASAP.
Put them out of their misery.
But you have to have a gun and know how to do it.
Many CCW People, like me, have the skills and know how.
I propose a new Law : If you declare an area a “Gun Free Zone”
you “Must” provide “Certified Armed Security”.
Otherwise allow Certified Concealed Carry.
Still trying to play on our emotions by injecting ‘the children’ into the conversation when kids are safer now than they ever have been. Should have locked her up when she threatened to blow up the White House.
Madonna should lead by example.
Her security detail should publically surrender their weapons to the authorities.
If guns are so bad, then she obviously wouldn’t want anyone protecting her to be so armed.
Do people really not see how blatantly she’s pandering to certain groups. She’s not offering any specific measures we need to take.
Just the same old “common sense” gun control BS.
Truly lame song, elementary school lyrics. Stick to what you know Madonna. By the way when you Hollywood elitists decide to live without armed bodyguards then you can preach to the rest of us normal people about the right to self protection…
Isn’t this the same celebrity that wants to meet with POPE FRANCIS to convince him that GOD is ok with abortion? Not surprised she would put out such blatant propaganda to promote gun confiscation.
Thank you for the truth, something the left/progressives always seems short on.
