Default Angelina Jolie brings out the big guns
Quote:
The pregnant mother of four told the U.K.'s Daily Mail that she owns guns similar to the ones she used in "Tomb Raider." Jolie and partner Brad Pitt are not against having weapons in their house for security reasons, she says.

"If anybody comes into my home and tries to hurt my kids, I've no problem shooting them," she said.

Jolie, 32, has starred as a heat-packing vixen in several action movies - two "Tomb Raider" films, "Mr. & Mrs. Smith" and the upcoming futuristic thriller, "Wanted."

"I can handle myself," she said. "There's a side to me that people know is humanitarian, and there's a side to me that's a mommy. But there's also the side that likes to get down and dirty and run and jump around and fire guns."

Take notes, wannabe intruders.

My respect for her just went up. It is refreshing to hear something like this from a Hollywood actress.images/smilies/smile.gif

Thanks for posting that. Very interesting to read....Considering all her humanitarian efforts etc, my respect for her was already pretty high.

I came in here expecting NSFW photos, but this is almost as good.

I wonder if she wants a range partner?

Uh, how is it flipflopping? I never said she was any less crazy, but owning and firing guns doesn't make her crazier or more sane than she is.

In what way? I've aways said "stay the course" and see this thing to the end.

Any idea where that "end" will be? I'm just wondering how many times my brother will be sent to that god-forsaken hell-hole.

I had to post it! Really I don't care about celebrities or their opinions. What I do see with Jolie is she actually puts time and effort into her humanitarian causes rather then just complaining like most of them. And yes the guns is a big plus for me too. Plus Brad Pitt has some kick ass Ducatis.

End for me is a presence for the next few decades at least. Something like Japan if possible. I'm hoping for a few large Airforce and Army bases to improve our strategic position in the region.

So basically you want to see more soldiers die. Why don't you support the troops?
