Post Liam Neeson under fire from Taken 3 gun makers
Quote:
The firearms company that provided the guns for Liam Neeson's Hollywood movie Taken 3 has criticised the star for his comments about US gun laws.

PARA USA said it "regrets" working with Neeson after he said the proliferation of guns in the US was a "disgrace".

It had never occurred to me before that firearms in a film may be part of a product placement deal before. A bit stupid of me not to realise that, really. :shock:

Well, maybe if the gun manufacturers all boycot his films he won't be able to make Taken 4. This would be a good thing :D

Typical gun company. They just can't accept people voicing an opinion different to their own.
So much for free speech.
