Steven King (author) a true hypocrite.

[PortRoyalDad]

Steven King declares that NRA members should clean up the blood, the brains, and the chunks of intestine after the next massacre.

Stephen King: NRA Should 'Clean Up Blood, Brains and Chunks of Intestine' After Next Massacre | NewsBusters

If you've ever read any of his books, one can readily see he has a very sick imagination, and much of his writing involves very graphic situations regarding sexual perversions, torture, blood, brains and chunks of intestine. For him to make millions of dollars off his books and then to make a stupid statement as he did in this article is simply beyond hypocritical.

In fact, given the types of books and stories he has written, King would be the last person I'd want to have a firearm. Perhaps Obama's latest series of executive orders regarding a doctors involvement of a person's mental capacity should begin with Steven King.

I think Steven King's 1st amendment rights should come under a doctor's scrutiny...before King is allowed to publish his next book and potentially influence some poor reader's mind.

I wonder if he offered to help at the scene of a huge massacre that occurred in the past,


Sept 11, 2001.

We will never forget!

He is what my Mom would have referred to as an "educated idiot". Lots of book learning, and college, but the common sense of a jackass. These guys would do well to THINK before they OPEN, and the fool just comes running out.

I have some theories about King that I probably shouldn't express here.

I certainly found him lacking in gun knowledge in his books. That was one reason why I didnt finish a book of his that I began.

I think he's a stereotypical liberal in some respects.

Please don't insult jackasses.

I picked up a Stephen King book a few years ago to read while waiting in the jury pool. While describing an undesirable character, he referred to them as "The type of trash that would have an NRA sticker on their bumper.".
I tore the book in half and tossed it in the garbage can.
I've enjoyed some of his books over the years. When I read it in college, I thought The Shining was brilliantly frightening, but I won't give that nasty, coke-head another dime.

He certainly is an expert on blood, brains, and guts. I wonder how many of his movies inspired the "not so mentally stable" to commit horrifying acts of some sort.

I guess we'll never know because most of these "mentally disturbed" *** ***** have killed themselves.

I’ve been reading King’s books since the 70’s and except for just a couple of published works, I’ve read them all (latest offering is one I haven’t read). HOWEVER, over the last 8 to 10 years, his obvious political leanings have made it harder and harder for me to take. I no longer rush out to buy his latest like I once did and it really bothers me as I find his writing style and obvious imaginative talent above the pale, but he ruins it all with just one or two idiotic references about conservatives or perhaps better described; non-liberal believing folk. What’s infuriating is that it adds nothing to the story, it’s obviously forced, which frankly spoils the whole body of work in my opinion. If he is so resolute in his political beliefs, he should write political pieces and keep it out of his ‘bread-n-butter’ works.

I seriously think he changed after the accident where he was nearly killed or at least it seems so to me. The man has talent, but if he continues to infuse his works with political cheap shots, he’ll lose a long-time fan in me.

Steven King is a damaged unit.

I just un-read all his books!

 

[Onomea]

I just don't like the genre, horror, whether in books or movies. But I will say this: He wrote one helluva an essay on being 19 as an introduction to one of his books.

 

[revho]

He's now on the list.

This from a guy whose book "Rage" is believed to have inspired two school shootings and two school hostage takings:

Anyone whose imagination can produce the strange stuff that his does is a sick puppy and, as others have said may well have been an enabler of those teetering on the edge of sanity.

There is just no cure for stupidy, and since it's a free country Mr. King is free to be as wrong as he wants to be.

I was a King fan back in the 70s and 80s with books like The Shining, Cujo, and The Stand. I saw him on TV a few years ago and he creeped me out. The last book of his I read was The Dark Tower I: The Gunslinger. I thought it was lousy. And after learning more about his political views, decided I'd had enough.

I'm currently a Vince Flynn fanatic.

Lets all hope he goes jogging again real soon. ( Hey did you just hear a bump or a thud)

Haha! He does seem weirder and creepier since the guy in the van speed-bumped him.

I was a regular reader back in the day, but he lost me about the time "From a Buick 8" came out. What a hunk of **** that was. I haven't bothered with him since, and I don't think I've missed anything.
