Unhinged Actor Alan Ritchson Goes Full TDS: Tells Americans to Hold Onto Rage Against Trump, Republicans, and Catholic Priests Until Someone Gets Beaten Into ‘a Pool of Their Own Teeth and Blood’
Hollywood’s latest Trump-hating tough guy is escalating his rhetoric from vulgar political attacks to graphic fantasies about bloody retribution.
“Reacher” star Alan Ritchson appeared Monday on Dax Shepard’s “Armchair Expert” podcast, where he launched a profanity-laced rant arguing that people should cling to their anger at abusive Catholic priests, Republicans, and President Donald Trump hard enough that someone ends up waking up in a pool of their own teeth and blood.
Ritchson recalled working with director Guy Ritchie on The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare. According to the actor, Ritchie once said the world would be better if “everybody should wake up in a pool of their own teeth and blood.” Ritchson initially pushed back. Now he’s on board.
When Shepard asked if he could let go of resentment, Ritchson refused. He turned the conversation straight to politics and the Catholic Church:
Alan Ritchson:
“Look at the politics that we deal with right now. Like, the White House is in ruins—a f*cking UFC cage on the lawn—and, like, you just do it. You just f*cking do it, and nobody says anything. No consequences. Nobody asked. It wasn’t done legally.There’s no plan in place. Now you’re asking for money to create. So, it’s like, what are we doing and there are no consequences.
I’m just supposed to let go of my resentment that this f*cking guy is just raping the world that he lives in for whatever gain he personally can have, and I’m supposed to let that go. And then what? It f*cking still exists… I f*cking hate it.
So, no, I’m not going to let him go. I f*cking hate it. I hate that that sh*t still lives in the world… unabated, unchecked, unresolved, uncleansed.
Look at the Catholic Church and, like, the predatory behavior that is just going completely unmet—with those victims who are still, like, unheard, unseen. No forgiveness, no resolution, no cure. And what is releasing the f*cking resentment going to do for the world?
I think we should hold on to some of that anger so somebody gets Guy Ritchie’d and wakes up in a pool of their own teeth and blood.”
