Ben Affleck, Bill Maher, and Brad Pitt All Own Guns to Protect Their Homes and Families
Ben Affleck, Bill Maher, and Brad Pitt All Own Guns to Protect Their Homes and FamiliesMaher then used Affleck's comments as a springboard to launch into a short discussion on self-defense and the rights a private citizen has to defend himself and his property.
He said: "In California, anyway, you can shoot an intruder in your home." Maher then looked at Affleck and said, "I mean, you have guns."
To which Affleck responded, "I do."
The audience grew quiet for a second and then roused up when Maher said, "So do I, and for that exact reason." Maher added: "I'm not disarming unilaterally."
According Fox News, Pitt told Radio Times "there's a rite of passage where [he] grew up of inheriting your ancestors' weapons." Subsequently, his brother inherited their father's weapons, while Pitt says of himself, "I got my grandfather's shotgun when I was in kindergarten," which was age six.
He said his father "instilled [in him] a profound and deep respect for the weapon." Two years later, at age eight, Pitt fired his first handgun. He said he does not "feel that his family is safe unless there is a gun in the home."
In September 2012, Outdoor Life reported that Pitt gave Angelina Jolie a "$400,000 shooting range as wedding gift."
