SPENCER TRACY

Spencer Tracy, 1900-1967, was not my favorite.  Good actor but I just didn't understand his humor when I was a kid.  When I watch him today I am impressed by his repartee with Katherine Hepburn. 
What I don't like is this shot in "Adam's Rib," where he eats a gun, albeit one made of licorice trying to make the act funny.  But there's nothing funny about eating a gun even if it is in jest.  But this is what Hollywood does.  It adopts globalist, anti-second amendment position and inserts it into movies, songs, and scripts.  What's wrong with Hollywood actors doing stupid things is that their actions, though scripted, are suggestive, meaning that they give out the wrong message.  Guns are used for self-defense and survival.  Not for self-destruction as is implied by the scene however dismissive or whatever disregard Hollywood producers give to important matters of life.  Hollywood will never be held accountable to anyone offing themselves as this scene suggests.  The suggested act, of course, by Spencer is one of suicide, an act witnessed by terrified Katherine Hepburn and David Wayne, 1914-1995, the latter of whom I watched recently in an older episode of Banacek. But we're supposed to laugh at Tracy's gesture, believing it to be a joke. Ha, ha, ha.  So funny.  Yeah, right. It is despicable on the part of the writers, producers, and directors, anti-life and anti-Christian.  
This is not the only time that we've seen this happen.  It happens all the time.  Remember the first Lethal Weapon, 1987, where Gibson is drinking in his trailer, watching a Bugs Bunny leading Christmas carols, loading his gun and turning it on himself?  The scene reveals that he is distraught over the loss of his wife.  That was a full 40 after Tracy's trick.  So this is a theme that runs through gun-control Hollywood.
