"Jim Carrey has apologised to gun owners for &amp;quot;calling them names&amp;quot;. The actor caused controversy recently when he announced that he no longer wishes to support his movie Kick-Ass 2 because of the level of violence it contains.  Carrey, who explained that he had changed his position following the Sandy Hook shooting, was then urged by some fans to donate his fee for the movie to charity. Carrey has now apologised to gun owners for his use of language during the row, but insisted that he stands by his original sentiments. &amp;quot;Asslt rifle fans,I do not agree wth u,nor do I fear u but I do love u and I&amp;#039;m sorry tht in my outrage I called you names,&amp;quot; he wrote. &amp;quot;That was wrong. 3^{&amp;quot;  Carrey added: &amp;quot;Btw I don&amp;#039;t need a crisis mgr, just a conscience. Calling ppl names is inappropriate but my position on assault weapons hasn&amp;#039;t changed. ;^}&amp;quot; The actor went on to wish his followers &amp;quot;a brilliant and miraculous day&amp;quot; and told them: &amp;quot;Only love is cool. ;^)&amp;quot; Following Carrey&amp;#039;s original comments about Kick-Ass 2, producer Mark Millar admitted that he was &amp;quot;baffled&amp;quot; while Universal exec Simon Hewlett acknowledged that the movie is &amp;quot;dark and often offensive&amp;quot;. Kick-Ass 2 is released in cinemas on August 14 in the UK, and August 16 in the US. Watch the red band trailer below:  "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
