Ryan O'Neal Uses Handgun to Defend Self...

[Shuckins]

...against an assault by his son, Griffin.

In a family dispute gone wrong, Ryan fired a handgun while being menaced by a fireplace poker wielding Griffin.  No one was hurt, and Griffin was detained by the police.


Hey Lasz....wonder what Ryan's "official" "Hollywood" position is on gun-control?

chalk one score up for the gun control crowd

I belong to the "Gun Control Crowd"


Deep breath
Let half of it out
Achive proper sight alignment
SQUEEZE the trigger

Wash rinse repeat however it sounds like this guy doesn't understand these little "tips" because he MISSED. Of course it was his son so he was probably just trying to scare him but it all goes back to the old addage "don't pull a gun unless you plan to kill what's in front of you"

Not true.  Griffin took a swing at his dad with the poker and missed and struck his pregnant girlfriend in the head.  She was hospitalized.

Point is... a gun was used to prevent a crime...  nashwan should take note not me.

It seems to me that without the gun this could have turned into a double homicide at least.    the girlfriend would have to have been killed to cover up.

Ryan oneil was a former boxer and in pretty good shape for a 65 year old but.. a 42 year old druggie with a club is pretty hard for an old man to take.

nashwan would have liked to have seen a different outcome.

nashwan would relegate ryan and all of us to helpless victims.

You can't really comprimise with nashwans position and you can't help but think of nashwan as the enemy.

I don't just "think of them as the enemy," they are the enemy.  Everyone who believes in gun control means me great harm.

Triple, actually...since the GF is pregnant.

Nice catch!  However, to the liberals, it is not murder; it's termination of an unborn foetus.

End this thread.
This is another Hollywood freek that will go to rehab and not get charged. Waist of time.
