Bill Maher: 'I’m very radical on the issue of gun control'
American comedian Bill Maher says he is “very radical on the issue of gun control”.
The 59-year-old Hollywood star said he was against the right to bear arms - despite owning two guns himself.
“I live in the gun country. Do I wish we didn’t live in the gun country? Absolutely,” said Maher.
“I think we should completely get rid of the Second Amendment, that’s our amendment that’s misinterpreted to believe individuals can have guns. I think we have to get that out of the ground by the root,” he added.
