Jim Carrey is apologizing for calling gun owners “heartless mother**kers” — but not for the sentiment behind his initial comments.
As Gossip Cop previously reported, the actor filmed a Funny or Die sketch in March in which he mocked pro-gun advocates, and ranted about the issue in a series of expletive-filled tweets.
But on Sunday — nearly 4 months later — Carrey took to Twitter again to distance himself from his previous behavior.

“Asslt rifle fans, I do not agree wth u, nor do I fear u but I do love u and I’m sorry tht in my outrage I called you names. That was wrong. 3^{” he tweeted.
He continued, “Btw I don’t need a crisis mgr, just a conscience. Calling ppl names is inappropriate but my position on assault weapons hasn’t changed. ;^}”
What do you think of Carrey’s apology?
