Avengers: Infinity War Josh Brolin actor is trending on Twitter for the wrong reasons. The celebrated film star is being compared to Aaron Brick, the father of the suspected gunman in the Club Q, Colorado Springs shooting. Netizens endlessly compared the two for their facial features.
The suspect, Anderson Lee Aldrich’s father, Brick appeared in an interview outside of his San Diego residence with CBS 8. In the exclusive interview, the MMA-fighter turned adult entertainer shockingly expressed relief that his son was not gay. Brick said in the interview:
“They started telling me about the incident, a shooting involving multiple people, and then I find it was a gay bar and I was like ‘oh my god, is he gay? S**t, is he gay?’ And he’s not gay, so I said, ‘Phhhewww…’”
Aaron Brick also stated that his family were Mormon and that he was a “conservative Republican and we don’t do gay.”
Speaking about Aldrich’s upbringing, that father admitted to praising the former, who goes by they/them pronouns, for showcasing violent behavior. Brick admitted:
“I told him it works. It is instant and you’ll get immediate results.”
Speaking about his views on firearms, Brick revealed that he believes that “guns are good.” He added:
“To me the guns are the hands. I do believe in the right to bear arms.”
Anderson Lee Aldrich’s court appearance is scheduled to take place on December 6. He is currently being held without bail and is facing murder and hate crime charges.
