Jim Carrey Pens New Pledge Of Allegiance For Students In Bullet-Riddled Schools
Jim Carrey’s latest portrait isn’t a caricature of a politician or media figure, as many of his works have been. Instead, the actor/artist has painted a stark image of a bullet-riddled classroom along with a new version of the “Pledge of Allegiance.”

Several of Carrey’s past portraits have tackled gun violence, the NRA and politicians who choose not to take action, including President Donald Trump:
It’s President's Day and Chief Little Hands has been busy tweeting from his golf resort, a chip shot away from the latest bloody school shooting. He was hoping to play a few holes while grieving families are busy digging them. I support @cameron_kasky #neveragain pic.twitter.com/ndJcrk3Sw5

They're saying the NRA took Russian money to support the Republican party in the last election. Maybe that's why Trump and his flying monkeys are so accommodating? Is Wayne LaPierre also Putin’s stooge -- or just another run of the mill demon from hell? #BanTheNRA pic.twitter.com/7r0J9NP2ng

Someday they’ll say we turned a blind eye to the suffering and slaughter of our own children and gave ourselves over to scoundrels and sadists. The NRA is a national disgrace. The venom of greed is killing America. pic.twitter.com/bhiMMHTVGN
