Fox News took aim at Jamie Lee Curtis for doing this and these are the only replies you need
Fox News wasn’t happy with actress Jamie Lee Curtis and in particular her role in the latest Halloween movie.
Why? Well, who better to tell than Fox News themselves.
Jamie Lee Curtis wields firearms in new 'Halloween' movie despite advocating for gun control https://t.co/OL2q5nXtUx

And here’s what they had to say.
In the 11th installment of the horror film series, Jamie Lee Curtis’s character, Laurie Strode, is seen wielding firearms in her quest to kill the film’s legendary villain, Michael Myers.
At one point, she shoots him as he’s standing in front of a window.
But Curtis’s on-screen actions stand in contrast to her real-life persona as an advocate for gun control — one of several Hollywood actors who use firearms in their films while preaching against them away from the set.
It even went on to share some of the star’s tweets.
Assault weapons ban now! Assault weapons ban now! Assault weapons ban now! Assault weapons ban now! Assault weapons ban now!

And here’s what people made of what Fox News had to say and it was perfect.

I need to admit that I have appeared in several movies promoting the purchase and consumption of Cornettos, when in reality I can't stand them. https://t.co/7WUeYz7rOS

Shocking. In other news, I played Hamlet once, despite never having actually stabbed my uncle to death with a poisoned rapier. https://t.co/tiVkx94jku

I bet she's also against men putting on terrifying masks and stabbing people the death, the useless liberal. https://t.co/MuceIVbWdj

Still not as shocking as when Leonardo DiCaprio boarded the Titanic, despite the devastating impact cruise ships have on the environment. Hypocrite. https://t.co/bRSTaObvrP

Disgraceful. I also hear Anthony Hopkins continued to play Hannibal Lecter, despite being against cannibalism. https://t.co/OXA3ccI8uP
