Chris Reed Of Sons Of Anarchy And Big Bang Theory Gets Political!

Chris Reed has been a working actor for over an entire decade, but most know him as Filthy Phil from the show Sons Of Anarchy. Other things you might have seen him in are Big Bang Theory, Justified, Wizards Of Waverly Place, Bones, and Eastbound And Down. The following is reposted (by permission) from his personal Facebook page. His public pages are linked below. Was he being sarcastic? Hyperbolic? Read the post and decide for yourself.

HELL YES LET’S KILL DRUG DEALERS.

We execute murderers for killing one person while we let the guy who kills 5000 with his smuggled drugs go off to the plush confines of maximum security prison! That’s bullshit. Let’s kill em. And not with painless chemicals either rather FIRING SQUAD. Pill salesman, doctors and nurses too! I mean, we have a heroin problem in the US largely due to the abuses of Pharmaceutical companies and their clients, so why exempt them? 

If we’re smart, we won’t stop there! We’ll have to pass some new laws for sure but we should take a close look at it. See next, we’ll throw all the brewers and distillers against the wall. Alcohol kills literally HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS of people every year, directly or indirectly. Should the scumbugs who enable such behavior walk free? 

I say NEIN!

Once we’re all safe from those evil doers, we’ll move onto the other bastards killing our families. Burger flippers, donut fryers, BARISTAS! They kill MILLIONS. WIPE THAT FILTH OFF OF OUR NATION’S FACE. 

Cuz we’re about Lady Justice and her sword here in Trump’s ‘Murica. 

Lady Liberty was just a fucking slut with a torch who had whatever happened to her coming.
