James Woods has an actor we all know and love, even before his great political commentary on Twitter he was just a good actor. But since joining Twitter and showing his conservative side, he’s not been afraid to throw his weight around. You name’em, he’s taken them on!
So it should come as no surprise when the famed Hollywood actor noticed a pretty odd Twitter involving David Hogg, Parkland shooting survivor, and his sister, Lauren, and noticed something a little off about their latest project.
The original Tweet was deleted (we’ll explain below) but it said: ““Inspired by the Supreme Court Landmark case Tinker vs Des Moines I’m starting #armbandsforchange. Make your own and wear it to school or work to protest gun violence,” Lauren tweeted.”
Think about World War II as you look at this… see any resemblance? Well, James Woods sure as heck did!
“You might have a little trouble getting Jewish Americans to embrace this look. Do you have any shiny jackboots and brown shirts to go with it? Guessing you might’ve skipped history class while you were shilling for the @DNC,” Woods tweeted.

A little firestorm of sorts started up over this on Twitter, leaving Hogg no choice but to feel she had to delete it, saying “I am so sorry if I offended anyone with my former tweet, I had no intention of bringing any bad connotation to what we are trying to do which is using our past as in the Tinker vs Des Moine case to create a better future for us all.”

James Woods goes the extra mile and proves he’s a class act. He encourages her to pursue her passion for a better future but warns her to not be a shill for the DNC:
“I commend you for correcting an image that could be mistaken for a hurtful one. We all want a better future. I respect your voice, regardless of any differences we may have. Please just beware of political hacks trying to commandeer your genuine aspirations for a better world.”
