Connery is best known as handgun toting James Bond. But every shooter in Britain now knows Connery in a different role, that of the front person for their outright handgun ban. Need we add that such a link is fatuous.
More rational minds believe there is a strong link between media violence and crime.
Just look at the Marilyn Manson inspired killers at Columbine High School. Sean Connery has been at the fore-front of media nasties. Crude, brutal imagery with language to match - but he made money from it. This despite the fact the millions of firearms owners live in their English speaking market. That is their choice in a free country.
