Some celebrities like packing heat—and not just in the movies. Fox News rounds up 14 of them. A sampling:

  • Tom Selleck: He's a member of the NRA.
  • Dax Shepard: After the Sandy Hook shootings, he tweeted, "I love guns. I have several, but I would gladly get rid of them if it would help prevent anything like this from happening again."
  • Clint Eastwood: He once said, "I have a very strict gun control policy: if there's a gun around, I want to be in control of it."

  • Howard Stern: He has a few guns but says he's not a "gun enthusiast." Even so, "I believe that people who particularly live on The Island (Long Island) in a home should have a gun to protect it," he once explained.
  • Eric Clapton: He's a gun collector, and has said, "I like a gun to look like a working tool but it's a magnificent piece of art as well."
  • Joe Perry: The Aerosmith guitarist says he's "always been fascinated with guns."
  • Sherri Shepherd: The View host said she planned to get a gun after her burglar alarm went off one night.

Add Sean Penn to that list. He owns 65... of which Charlize Therron has been working on him to destroy them.

And I care, why?

They are neither my neighbors nor role models for me.

Plus they have stellar alarm systems and body guards.

I don't care whether you care or not.

O/T but related - ABC (I believe 20/20) will air a segment on children and guns. The curiosity of young children and how they interact. What I saw from the clips is eye opening.

I don't understand the topic or the subject line. What makes it charming or not? Millions of Americans own guns, some happen to be celebrities. So what?

I care about the family that just sent my kid a birthday party invitation and situations like that!

When my middle son was in the 2nd grade he came home with a story about the kids finding a gun in the drawer during the party. Yeesh.
