Samuel L. Jackson: It's Not About Gun Control, It's About Not Being Taught Violence

 Actor Samuel L. Jackson is taking a position that might surprise you:

“I don’t think it’s about more gun control,” said Samuel L. Jackson, who stars as a conniving house slave in Quentin Tarantino’s upcoming revenge fantasy “Django Unchained.” “I grew up in the South with guns everywhere and we never shot anyone. This [shooting] is about people who aren’t taught the value of life.” Parents and role models who emphasize that value, he said, will accomplish more than legislators reducing the number of firearms.
