Carey Hart, a famous motocross freestyler and husband to pop star Pink, faced backlash on social media this week after posting images of his kids learning to shoot firearms.
“Fun morning shooting w/ my kids! Willz is getting seriously good w/ the rifle and handling of a firearm. And Jamo absolutely loves shooting! And the rate that he is processing the handling of them, he makes me proud,” Hart posted on Instagram.
“I’m a firm believer in teaching my kids to shoot, but more importantly, handle a firearm. No better sound than the bullet of your kids gun plucking a steel target at 30 yards,” he said.
His post didn’t escape the notice of the woke mob, of course.
“Doesn’t strike me as a kids activity … not at all. [Your] son is 3 or 4 at most and learning to shoot a gun?” replied one commenter. “No one asked you,” Hart responded.
“Explain why this is important to someone from Europe,” another commenter demanded. “It’s not my job to explain common sense,” Hart said.
Another commenter from Australia wondered why anyone would ever need a firearm.
“I understand using guns for hunting etc they are used here for that purpose as but the thought of needing one for protection is crazy to me,” the person wrote. “We have gun laws here in Australia we are lucky to see on the news maybe 5 to 10 gun related crimes a year in the whole country and it shocking when we do! It just interesting to me how different things can be.”
Most of the comments were positive, but Hart also had to field questions from pro-gun commenters wondering why he would support Democrats who are opposed to guns.

“It’s bada — you are teaching your kids. Which is why I’m so confused you would support the Democrats who have stated they will take our guns,” one user wrote on Twitter. “Unless only the rich will be allowed the privilege [sic]. Let that sink in as to why people will vote Trump.”
“1st they don’t want to take your guns, and why has none of the 44 before been able to take them??” Hart replied. “Second I’m a Republican who hates Trump, so I have no choice.”
Hart doesn’t just oppose Trump—he’s actively endorsed Joe Biden. While defending one of his wife’s Instagram posts, which featured the pop star wearing a Biden/Harris shirt, Hart gave his rationale for supporting the Democrat.
“Reason I am voting for him is because I ‘hope’ he puts together a great team that will do positive things,” Hart said. “And that is what most of Trump’s high-profile early [supporters were] planning for him to do. But his narcissism kicked in and away he went.”
The motorsports athlete continued: “Trump retweets white power s–t all the time. Called peaceful protesters animals, and called the racist pieces of s–t in Charlottesville ‘good people.’”
When commenters pointed out Biden’s stance on gun control, Hart claimed that the Democrat won’t be able to “take that away.”
“[The Second Amendment] is a constitutional right, and no two people (Biden and Beto) can take that away. I for one think there needs to be stricter gun laws, ‘cause guess what? That won’t affect me because I’m a law-abiding citizen,” he said.
Hart may want to reread Biden’s gun control plan—or rethink his gun collection. One of the images Hart posted includes an AR-15 pistol, which would likely be outlawed (or placed under NFA guidelines) under a Biden administration.
They have to back the left(ist) other wise they will never work in Hollywood since its controlled by the left along with the media. Its all about keeping the money rolling in while his wife sings here mediocre songs, and he lives on his past laurels. He’s a nobody now. Lives in bumf#%k and you know he has an AR for home protection, along with a security team for the famous”Pink”‘s pink “V” and kids…hate that mass pop rock that she does for 12 year old girls…just like all that hip hop sh!t.
Just a thought. It’s great that the Aussies’ gun crime rate has been dropping (even though I don’t agree with gun confiscation ) but is it a fair comparison? Hell no! Australia is an island, a BIG island! And if you have ever traveled there, their airport and seaport security is first rate. We have porous land borders and in some areas, not much water between us and other high risk countries. ( ie. Cuba, Mexico and other Central American countries ) Our big island state of Hawaii has the lowest rate of gun crime of all of our states and shares both the island status and restrictive gun laws with Australia. Just like I would not compare the state of Hawaii to any other state in the U.S., you can’t make a fair comparison with the U.S. and any other country. You could however, compare a city like Chicago to other cities in the U.S. and make the determination that tougher gun laws do not reduce gun related crime. BTW – if the mayor of Chicago still believes that the majority of her violence problem is due to straw purchasers from Indiana, she could work with the Feds to eliminate that problem quickly. Great way to deflect from the real problem and accept zero responsibility.
Since Australia took away guns, assaults, burglary, rape are all up over 500% in some cases. Way to go clowns
C.H and pink are typical famous frauds. Left wing culture has completely changed the rules forever. Pink and her bitch neutered husband like to come off as straight shooting take no BS celebs. Fact is they would not ever dare step out of line against this new radical democratic movement. The backlash for speaking your true beliefs now a days means public spanking by the agenda driven left wing media. If a famous person said they like trump it would be a wrap for their career. For C.H to say that the left can’t take our guns, WHAT A FN clown he is. Hey Carey maybe they won’t knock down doors to collect our guns, but you dumb POS , they are trying to make it possible for anyone to file suit against the gun manufacturers. Which means all those Anti American liberal dirt bag lawyers will be filing so many cases that gun manufacturers could eventually be forced to stop making some of the popular guns. And cities like Pittsburgh and Philadelphia are currently trying to make it illegal to discharge a firearm within city limits. So that owning and having a CCW will still be fine , but Gun ranges will be a rare thing. F. Carey hart and is fraud wife.
For all those Biden supporters: Fear the government that continuously wants to disarm you in the name of keeping you safe. Biden will say anything to get elected.
My Father began hunting with my Grandfather at age nine .
I began hunting with them both at the same age .
My Son began at the same age as well . It’s a family tradition
that I am hopeful will continue with my Grandchildren .
Yet Pink and her husband continue to call themselves proud democrats. Even though democrats are the ones slamming them, and want to take their 2nd amendment rights away from them. That’s the stupidity and hypocrisy of liberals combined.
I belive he called himself a republican, but I think you are correct that he is a democrat. He follows the old rule “I’ve got mine, screw you!
What he said quote: “Second I’m a Republican who hates Trump, so I have no choice.”
With all due respect, what I have read here does not address the real problem. However, there are some great comments. Children need to be taught to respect guns and how to use them, as they someday may need to do so. My granddaughters are nearly 7 yrs old and I have just started teaching them this.
To the fellow in Australia, I remember when your government demanded ALL guns be turned in and they subsequently destroyed them. Purpose, to make sure that they can control the people without fear of retribution. In the USA, this would certainly be attempted by our left wing, Democrats as they want to control the entire population. Their end game is to get elected and take away your rights to defend, so that when they enact or demand certain laws and rules, there will be no backlash. A nation unarmed is a nation of puppets. If this was implemented here, they would not succeed, as the gun owning population would not surrender and would fight until the last bullet.
Our Democrats don’t give two hoots about the public at large. They want the power and money and will do anything to get it and make those that have no backbone their slaves. If your think I am wrong, look at what took place in Europe before our forefathers defected.
Don’t ever surrender our country over to these Socialists or we will cease to exist as a Republic.
One last thing, POTUS is a man, a human being and a sinner, like the rest of us. He is not perfect, but he is God’s choice for this time. I fully believe, with all my heart (and have said this for the past two years) that he will win re-election and in a landslide victory. We will have another 4 years of MAGA and then, the end.
Prepare your hearts to receive Jesus as the alternative is going to be uglier than anyone can possible imagine.
Blessings to all,
Rev
You Trumpers are a bunch of crybabies. They can in no way take your gun collection, just maybe outlaw a few out for 10-15-20 yrs. I’m a stout Republican but agree that control needs to be alot better so other law abiding citizens like myself can enjoy guns for a long time. It’s just unconstitutional for Dems to do that. And no, they cannot change the constitution to their liking by packing congress or executive order. It will never hold up. Stop with the damn sensationalism, you’ll sound worse than the damn media and your president.
And of you think Democrats care about the constitution, you are a stout idiot.
Maybe if we had laws against murder, you wouldn’t have to worry about gun laws…
What kind of guns do you plan to enjoy for a long time? BB guns?
I love how all of you Trumpers love to swing from his nuts. I get great satisfaction trolling you all. Tell me, where will your staunch pro-Trump voice be in the event he doesn’t get re-elected again? I know where, crying in your hillbilly shithole where you all belong seemingly invisible to the rest of the world. You all sound like a bunch of radicals in his fanclub. Sheep all of you, following his poor example and reverberating his rhetoric. He gave you clowns a stage to prance about on but eventually the rug will get pulled from underneath. Compromise is key to survival. You retards will still go down guns blazing, huh? Sounds to me like less idiots running about. We need a better candidate to represent this party.
I’m registered as a “No Party Affiliation” voter in the state that I live. I don’t vote along party lines and try to avoid being a one-issue voter, though sometimes that’s challenging NOT to do. In the past, I’ve voted for Republican and Democrat candidates alike, depending on who I thought was best suited for the position or might prove to be the lesser of two evils over the long haul.
In 2016, I went third party because I saw both Trump and Clinton as equally ill-suited in their respective ways to represent the 300+ million citizens of the U.S……and still feel the same about Trump. Sure, I urinated away my vote in 2016, but at the same time, didn’t betray my conscience. I feel pretty much the same about the current major party presidential candidates and their running mates.
I couldn’t agree with you more about the Republican party needing a better candidate than Trump to represent it, though I can say the same the Democrats and Biden. I just wish independent / third party candidates stood a fighting chance against the major party presidential hopefuls.
At least for now, they don’t…..and perhaps never will as long as being elected to the U.S. presidency is more about who can spend the most money to buy it and spew the most inflammatory, damning vitriol about the other major party opponent (and running mate)—this, versus, being elected primarily due to the person’s EXCEPTIONAL qualifications for the position and potential to do the best job for all, or at least most, of the hundreds of millions of constituents that person represents.
Trumpers are crybabies? Sounds to me like you are the crybaby. Want a little cheese with that whine?
Another TDS sufferer with no knowledge of historical precedent.
In addition, you also don’t understand Constitutional law, nor apparently how Congress works.
The number of times the Democrats have TRIED to outlaw certain firearms is a matter of record, which YOU are obviously ignorant of.
You claim of being a “stout” Republican is arguable based solely on your own post.
You say you are a stout republican, I say you are a Stout democrat, a stout liar, and a stout hypocrite.
Quote: “It’s just unconstitutional for Dems to do that.” And when was the last time people in California were allowed to go to church? That is also a right protected by the constitution that the Democrat governor simply ignored.
FROMB what? What gun laws would you like to see smart guy? Please explain. We are responsible for our own decisions. You get a background check when purchasing a gun, after that be an adult not some wannabe gangster running around our cities calculating 400-750 yearly murders. And gun show sales are less then 3% so don’t drive down that road either. It’s like with pit bulls, some cities have banned certain types of dogs. Why is that? Do you think the dogs are born and naturally run around attending dog fights in their own. And running aimlessly through community biting innocent people. No . They are bred, the raised to be vicious. Same gun owners big the guns. Democrats want to Tax the shit out of us, impose regulations that make the most basic things a pain to do, and create laws that in no way do anything except help criminals.
Everyone should teach their children how to properly handle and enjoy shooting targets.
My kids were in diapers shooting guns and learning Respect for firearms.
I gave all my kids guns for protection and for target practice which the Entire family enjoys.
So I live in the same small town as Cary and pink. Although they are nice people and great parents they are strongly misslead by Biden and commie harris. They do want to take your guns. That is a fact!!! One of the problems is they can’t seem to stay off social media. They are always getting criticized for something. The other thing is here in CA if you are any kind of entertainer you generally have to be a Democrat or your career will be over before it starts. She doesn’t have much left in the tank if you ask me. If they said they support Trump her money would be gone. California is a evil corrupt place. As far as Cary goes I think it’s easier for him to just go along with what his wife tells him to do. She seems like a extremely difficult person that gets her way far to often. But hey if she’s the one bringing in the money, what else would you expect.
Just stay off of social media and you will not have problems like this.
5 or 10 gun related crimes a year in Australia? Guy doesn’t read the news much. It is more like low 200s for fatalities, and yes, they have gangs and home invasion robberies.
I think Hart is wrong about Biden and Harris. I live in Ca. We know all about Harris, and she is dyed in the wool guns for me but not for thee kind of a gun banner, like Little Mikey. She will do everything she can to push an gun ban and licensing scheme with an added national red flag law.
Hart is clearly a leftist tool. “Their not going to take your guns!”
He is a clear example of more money than brains. Pure giveaway is he is using democrat and the democrat media’s talking points.
The motorsports athlete continued: “Trump retweets white power s–t all the time. Called peaceful protesters animals, and called the racist pieces of s–t in Charlottesville ‘good people.’”
Point made. Total and complete fabrications of the truth. Really sad when a gun owner has no ability or makes no effort to seek the truth and is just another lemming.
Yeah. He’s a moron. A fudd, too. All that money and look at those crap guns.
Just another R.I.N.O.. PLEASE people read Biden’s website and listen to what he’s said on and off the campaign trail. He claims to own a shotgun but I find that highly doubtful. From everything I have read and heard this man should have his own “red flag” laws used against him. I wouldn’t feel at all safe anywhere near an armed Joe Biden. Why won’t the democrats answer the question about packing SCOTUS? My mom taught me that if someone won’t answer a simple yes or no question that person is hiding something. They won’t answer because Trump has thrown a huge monkey wrench into the Democrat agenda and he’s just making things worse for them but better for the American citizens.
TRUMP 2020!
Remember if you come for mine you better bring yours!!
