Supermodel Leaving Twitter Following Death Threats After Tweet On America’s Gun Violence
On Thursday, a supermodel had the audacity to Tweet her opinion on gun control following the shooting in Ottawa, Canada, and she was spot on, Now after death threats poured in following her tweet, Chrissy Teigen is leaving Twitter.
active shooting in Canada, or as we call it in america, wednesday
— christine teigen (@chrissyteigen) October 22, 2014
That innocuous tweet resulted in this:
my timeline is a nice mix of toast talk and death threats
— christine teigen (@chrissyteigen) October 22, 2014
Amazing this isn’t punishable. RT “@fvvvvvvvvvvvvck I hope someone murders some you love, like your faggot husband” — christine teigen (@chrissyteigen) October 23, 2014
*peeks* hi mentions are you safe yet?
— christine teigen (@chrissyteigen) October 23, 2014
She’s leaving.
I feel sick. Bye Twitter. Taking my talents to instagram. — christine teigen (@chrissyteigen) October 23, 2014
Watch courtesy of Access Hollywood:
Sadly, this is nothing new. Moms Demand Action members receive outrageous tweets over their efforts to support common sense gun laws. Still, I wish she wouldn’t leave because of a few unhinged gun fetishists. The fact is, her tweet wasn’t just an opinion. It’s a reality.
It’s not just women or celebrities — no one, including our elected officials can have a discussion on implementing gun laws, or just background checks. It’s as if you’re killing their first born. The attacks pour in. Our country’s safety is being dictated by a minority. Most gun owners are responsible but there are a few who should never own a firearm.
H/T: LL’s own R.J. Carter with thanks.

I like her…she calls it like it is….
Allan Narci October 26th, 2014 at 10:24
no she doesn’t, she’s another idiot who thinks she has an opinion worth listening to.
bigotbeater October 26th, 2014 at 10:39
Her opinion is as valid as yours is and probably more so because she doesn’t spend her entire day trying to prove that she is better than everyone else. You are the idiot in the room.
rg9rts October 26th, 2014 at 12:04
AND YOU DID FOOL!!! LOL
KBW October 26th, 2014 at 13:58
And why is she an idiot? When there were – according to the FBI – 8,775 incidents of homicide by firearm in the US in 2010, with 12,996 fatalities in those incidents, and 19,392 suicides by firearm in the US in 2010 (the most recent year I found for statistics, so that is also why I’m using 2010 for homicides), you are trying to say NONE of them happened on a Wednesday? Or that the entire US got bent out of shape for ALL 32,388 of those deaths – that not one of those days was considered “just another day” in the US? That all Americans were ashamed on all of those days? Because her point was that Americans DON’T CARE, that murders are JUST ANOTHER DAY. And you are going to tell me that you paid attention to all 32,388 deaths in 2010? Or any year since, which aren’t much different, you can go to the FBI and CDC websites and see. Yeah, she is just a idiot with no point? If she’s an idiot, then I think that makes you a moron.

No, her comment is NOT reality, it was awash in hyperbole. Do a little fact checking before, in typical liberal Pavlovian fashion, agreeing when imbecility is put on display, masquerading as astute social commentary. According to FBI statistics, between 2001 and 2008, active shooter incidents, which is what she DIRECTLY referred to as a weekly occurrence here in America, averaged one every other month. THAT’S ONE EVERY EIGHT WEEKS.
So, unless your calendar works differently than mine, her asinine attempt to make a point about gun CONTROL, and rightly so, falls flat.
As for taking her “talents” to Instagram, I’m still trying to figure out, beyond the talent of standing like a statue while being photographed, what those “talents” are.

I wouldn’t talk about Pavlovian Hyperbole if I were from the the right on this,
I also wouldn’t call others ill informed.
“America sees far more gun violence than countries in Europe, and Canada, India and Australia, which is perhaps how it gets its bloody reputation among comparatively peaceful nations.
When a person kills another in the United States, though, he or she generally uses a gun: 60 percent of U.S. homicides occur using a firearm, which is the 26th-highest rate in the world. (In other gun-permeated countries, such as Finland (45.3 guns per 100 people), only about 19 percent of homicides involve a firearm.”

And that doesn’t include the accidental shootings and deaths from “responsible gun owners”.
So spare us.
Maxx October 26th, 2014 at 10:15
Note she was referring to “active shooting” incidents in the country, otherwise, in her own words “Wednesday.”
I realize that point was lost on you but it is what it is, and thus, the cause for most of the critique she received. Gun violence is a serious issue in this country but addressing it with factually incorrect analogies is NOT the answer and she deserved the rebuttals she earned, albeit not from the lunatic fringe wishing her harm.

________
Factually wrong, as opposed to the NRA rhetoric??
Her inaccuracy is a drop in the bucket compared to that of the gun culture.
Please.
Most of the critique she has received is from lunatic fringe who have taken over the gun culture.
We DO a mental health problem in this country resulting resulting in a gun control problem.
That is why the gun lobby needs to squash the stats.
CDC Ban on Gun Research Caused Lasting Damage
The CDC conducted gun violence research in the 1980s and 1990s,
but it abruptly ended in 1996 when the National Rifle
Association lobbied Congress to cut the CDC’s
budget the exact amount it had allocated to gun violence research.

As for; If laws alone would be the answer, we wouldn’t have drunk drivers now would we?
_______
That’s why we need laws AND enforcement.
As
Dan Baum,
author of “Gun Guys: A Road Trip,” said;
“That is also why But my fellow gun guys have plenty to answer for,
too. We don’t live in a vacuum. Our guns affect everybody, and the
non-gun-owning public has a right to expect things to improve. More than ever,
after the transformative horror of Sandy Hook, the old defensive crouch is
inadequate. If gun culture is to survive, gun guys need to get in the game. If
we want to hold on to our guns, we need to be part of the solution.”
Or as Mike Weisser, aka Mike the Gun Guy said;
Gun Responsibility Should Be Led By Gun Owners;
“I was in my shop on December 14. The news from Sandy Hook made me sick. But what as soon as the requisite “silence” ended, the children buried and everyone voiced their concern, as a gun guy I had no one with whom I could share my shame, no one who was willing to stand with me and say ‘enough is enough.’
Why did the parents of these murdered children have to wait for the president to invite them to Washington to plead their case? Why didn’t a bunch of gun owners chip in and send a plane up to Connecticut to bring those shattered parents down to DC? I’ll tell you why we didn’t. Because after the massacre Wayne LaPierre and all the pro-gun organizations rallied around the flag saying the problem wasn’t guns. The problem was lack of school security, or lack of mental health facilities. It wasn’t “us,” it was “them.” “We” didn’t have to take responsibility because gun owners are responsible. But let’s be honest. The truth is that what murdered those kids and their teachers was an emotionally-disturbed young man whose mother should never have given him access to her guns.”

There were 4 mass shootings THIS WEEK alone. There are shootings in every city, every day. What the hell are you talking about, what are you citing? There are over 10,000 shootings in the US every year. Some cities in the US have over 400 people killed a year – most major cities have over 200. Even relatively “safe” cities can have between 50-150 a year. THOSE ARE JUST FATALITIES. There is not one day in the US when there is not a shooting. So I don’t know where you are getting your information, but this is not “hyperbole,” it’s common knowledge, common sense, and backed up by READING THE NEWS.
KBW October 26th, 2014 at 13:39
Also according to the FBI, in 2011, there were 8,583 firearm MURDERS in the US. That’s just murders, that is not incidents of shootings. That’s not shootings where the person did not die. So you are only looking at mass shootings or some other filter to make YOUR point, to make it look like YOU are right, but in fact, you are NOT telling the WHOLE STORY. The whole story is that, in addition to over 8,000 murders by gun in 2011, the most recent year for which they have statistics, in 2010, there were 19,392 SUICIDES BY GUN, accounting for 50% of suicides.
So there are almost 30,000 DEATHS in the US via firearm a year! That is not to mention – again – shootings in which the person DID NOT DIE. So I don’t know why you decide a filter to make it look like there’s less gun violence than there is, but the fact of the matter is that about 10.65% of the US population – that is according to the CDC – is dying by gun A YEAR. And I can’t find the statistics right now to show roughly how many are hurt but not killed, or shootings in which no one is hurt but the shooting happens nonetheless. But you sure are picky about your numbers.

I certainly don’t agree with the ludicrous death threats but if you’re going to comment on a serious topic, don’t whine when people call you out on not only your timing, but your inaccuracy. Efforts by ill-informed liberals to create yet MORE laws restricting firearm ownership by LAW ABIDING citizenry is not a topic which is particularly welcoming to sarcasm, as the model has learned.
On that note, as for taking her “talents” to Instagram, I’m still trying to figure out, beyond the excruciating difficulty of standing like a statue while being photographed, what those “talents” are. Perhaps more cell phone snapshots of her latest meal?

On a final note, after nearly three decades as a moderate Democrat, I’m a registered independent, which implies I’m capable of forming my own opinion on a variety of subjects, no longer encumbered by some nonsensical loyalty to any party which promotes “our way or the highway” be it left OR right.
We don’t have a gun control problem in this country, we have a mental health problem. To date, no Glock has ever been read its Miranda Rights. When liberals finally accept the fact that shooting people is a BEHAVIORAL problem and not a logistical one, perhaps progress can be made.

Case in point, there were 4 mass shootings this week in the US that resulted in fatalities, yet the only one I saw wall-to-wall national media coverage on was in Canada. And Teigan was wrong? It’s a fact that more than 10,000 shootings happen in the US per year, where our closest “rivals” have fewer than 500. Americans want to bristle when they hear the truth – OWN your truth, people. Why not say, yes, we know we have shootings all the time in the US? Why get bent out of shape when someone says that? THERE ARE SHOOTINGS EVERY DAY IN THE US. Why get pissed off when someone says that? Read the news for goodness sake – that is, if it comes to that, that you are that clueless. And please, I could not care less who comments what on me, when you can prove to me that there is ANY day in the US when there isn’t a shooting, then you can cast that stone.
KBW October 26th, 2014 at 14:17
I want to update my numbers. In 2011, according to the FBI, there were 8,583 incidents with firearms resulting in homicides. Those incidents resulted in 12,664 deaths. In 2010, according to the CDC, there were 19,392 suicides by firearm. That would be considered a shooting also, since you have to shoot the firearm to kill yourself with it. THESE ARE JUST HOMICIDES.
Every day, there are shootings in which people are just hurt, or not even hit. But those ARE shootings.
Americans DO NOT get bent out of shape for ALL of those shootings. Americans do not moan, mourn, have wall-to-wall media coverage, of close to 30,000 shootings a year. It’s IMPOSSIBLE.
And this was Teigen’s point: every day is just another day in the US. We get excited when there is a high-profile mass shooting — in fact, mass shootings in and of themselves don’t even make much news anymore. I didn’t see saturated coverage of the shooting in California this week in which two people were killed and two more were wounded. There were 2 school shootings this week, also, which resulted in fatalities. Didn’t see – not only massive national media coverage, but even much LOCAL media coverage of the events. I’m talking about the week of Oct. 19-25.
America was focused on a shooting in Canada, yet at home, we had shootings that had several fatalities, and I saw next to no coverage of them, and am lucky that I saw any at all.
And Teigen was wrong? There is a liberal conspiracy to take away your guns by making gun violence worse than it is? The FBI and CDC report on deaths and incidents, period. Raw figures. They don’t value them, don’t moralize about them, they don’t even advertise that they do these reports. And before anyone throws in that Obama influences these agencies, people who work for the government WORK FOR UP TO 30 YEARS – that means NO MATTER WHO IS PRESIDENT these people hold their jobs. They do what is on the books, what is law and the presidents DO NOT REWRITE LAW, they can’t even write law in the first place! Only Congress can! Go back to 4th grade and learn about government again if you think the president makes laws or influences people who work under 5 different presidents.
The fact of the matter is that GUN VIOLENCE IS AN EVERY DAY OCCURRENCE IN THE US AND AMERICANS NEED TO JUST OWN UP TO IT. You don’t get upset unless it’s someone you know who dies, or is injured, and you don’t notice unless it’s little kids who get killed and only then you notice so you can scream that it’s mental illness that kills kids, not guns. Yes, they killed them with mental illness. The gun had NOTHING to do with it. Mmm hmm. NO ONE HAS TAKEN YOUR STUPID GUNS AWAY FROM YOU, SO STAND DOWN. You are showing what a bunch of lunatics you really are when you have these overblown reactions to someone’s statement that it’s just another day in the US when someone gets shot. IT *IS* JUST ANOTHER DAY IN THE US WHEN SOMEONE GETS SHOT. How many of you who don’t live in PA know that a State Trooper in Pennsylvania got killed by a sniper, and another one injured, last month? I’d be surprised if 10 of you do. THAT is what she meant.
