I think gun manufacturers should start being afraid. You can't open an aspirin bottle if you're a kid, but you can fire a gun at someone.
gave jury rehearsal sat shot stuff table
We sat around that table in the jury room, and it really gave us a lot of rehearsal time. A lot of stuff that we shot was really rehearsal stuff.

The gun issue is a big, unresolved issue in this country right now. I think it's out of control

I love improvisation.
