Justin Bieber was spotted playing with a gun on the set of Selena Gomez’s new movie Feed The Dog. Unfortunately, it was bad timing for Justin considering The Dark Knight massacre and other recent shootings around the country in the past few weeks. Justin definitely should have used better judgement — prop or not. Justin, what is wrong with you? Not only does this new photo show bad taste, but you’re also pointing it at the other man in the photo. Considering that 10 people were shot in front of the Empire State Building on Friday Aug. 24, and 3 people were killed at a New Jersey supermarket on Aug. 31, Justin’s action was made in bad taste. Guns are clearly becoming a problem for our country and Justin is only making light of the situation with this photo. I’m not sure how Selena can sit there and smile as her boyfriend is holding a gun — acting as if it’s a toy! Justin, whether you like it or not, you’re a role model. And millions of fans, 27 million on Twitter, are following your every move. You have power in this industry, and holding a gun in jest is just plain foolish. I hope that Justin reconsiders the message he’s sending with this recent photo and feels ashamed for making light of guns. Guns are not cool, Justin.

This reminds me of all the criticism Madonna received (and still receives) for using guns on her MDNA Tour. People seem to forget guns are used all the time in movies, television, etc.

Moreover, if they're going to criticise Justin Bieber for posing with fake guns then where are their criticism on owners and employees of major toy stores that sell toy guns? Where are their criticism for parents/guardians that buy toy guns for their children to play with?

I dislike people that pick and choose what they criticise about.
