"Jim Carrey has aired his opinions on gun control laws in America. The comic actor wrote an article in The Huffington Post, passionately arguing that &amp;quot;reducing gun violence in America is a worthwhile endeavour&amp;quot;.  He said that he disagrees with those who claim that more gun laws would not make a different to the amount of gun crime. He stated: &amp;quot;NO ONE IS ASKING ANYONE TO GIVE UP THEIR RIGHT TO BEAR ARMS, though it is in the vested interests of those who profit by gun sales to make it seem so.  &amp;quot;It&amp;#039;s just the type of arms, the easy access and the means with which to cause massive devastation to good and innocent people that I hope we can limit.&amp;quot; He went on to say: &amp;quot;These mass shootings and daily body counts on your local news are terrible tragedies. The utter devastation that must be endured by the victims&amp;#039; families is unfathomable.  &amp;quot;These horrific events are also an invitation for us to become more civilised and to deal with our addiction and entitlement to violence - not to shut our eyes and ears and scream at those with a different opinion than ours to &amp;#039;f**k off and go back to Canada&amp;#039;.&amp;quot;  Carrey also addressed those who said that speaking up about the subject would see the demise of his acting career. &amp;quot;I would trade my money, my fame, my reputation and legacy if there were the slightest chance of preventing the anguish of another Columbine, Virginia Tech, Aurora, or Sandy Hook Elementary School,&amp;quot; he insisted. &amp;quot;I ask you, truly, what manner of human being would not?&amp;quot; Photo gallery - Jim Carrey&amp;#039;s career in pictures:  "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
