Most of the names on here I don't know.
Some I expected: Brady, Bloomberg, etc.
Some are disappointments: Burt Reynolds, Stan Lee, Gerald McRaney
Just because they are on the board of trustees of an entertainment group does NOT mean they agree with all policies of the group. They are entertainers and have a vested interest in influencing it as much as possible.
At last report I perused, neither McRaney nor Reynolds were gun control nuts.
Actually, Gerald McRaney stared in "A Woman's Guide To Firearms".A training video I use in my basic pistol class, and I believe I purchased thru the NRA.
I did some searching and McRaney is supposed to be an NRA member according to wikipedia. Then there is this:

Let it be remembered that in the bass tones of Major Dad's exhortations, we heard the call of a Republican era. "I like to hunt," he once said. "And Clinton is for gun control. Well, I can tell you that I'd like to be able to keep my gun and hunt some more."
Didn't find much on Burt Reynolds. He did apparently do an NRA PSA a long time ago. There were some allusions to him not being against owning guns but favoring certain kinds of restrictions but I couldn't find anything specific. OTOH, Steven Spielberg is anti-gun and supposedly has a big collection of "assault" rifles....some of the "elite" are fine with guns for themselves...it's just us proles they want disarmed --not that this applies to Burt.
