Background checks on gun sales more popular than Taylor Swift [View all]

Last edited Sun Feb 7, 2016, 06:12 PM - Edit history (1)

What do Taylor Swift, dogs and football have in common?

They’re three of America’s favorite things, according to a new Funny or Die video sponsored by the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence.

Calling for background checks on “every single gun sale” are actors Amanda Peet and Dennis Quaid, the latest in Hollywood to lend their clout to the gun control cause.

"Football, Taylor Swift, and dogs are some of the most popular things in this country," Quaid says.
