The issue of gun control has been a divisive topic among people all around the country for some time, and the Bravo-verse is no different.
Shahs of Sunset co-stars Golnessa ‘GG’ Gharachedaghi, and Mike Shouhed are taking aim at one another after Mike deleted an anti-gun comment after he posted a photo of his fiancé, Paulina Ben-Cohen holding a gun at a shooting range they were “stay[ing] fully prepared.”
In the since-deleted comment Golnessa wrote, “It makes no difference how many weapons you have. Unless those weapons are attached to your body every second of the day, then it’s sometimes pointless. With kids in the house then that means weapons must be locked away in safe spaces, so are you planning to ask the perpetrator to wait while you go grab your weapons? Maybe stop promoting guns and go get yourself some powerful dogs. They’ll protect you and take the bullet while you run free. Guns suck!!!!!”
After seeing the comment’s deletion, Golnessa then took to her own Instagram page to post her frustration that Mike apparently wasn’t mature enough to respect and see both sides of the situation.
“I’m so confused? Aren’t I allowed to have an opinion that’s different than yours or do you do delete anything in disagreement with you?” she captioned her post containing the screenshot of her original comment. The post even garnered a like from RHONY’s Eboni K. Williams.
Elaborating on her own anti-gun stance the “Genuinely GG” podcast host went on to further clarify her reasoning.
“I saw my classmate get shot right in front of me twice in the back while we were playing kickball during lunch break (he survived because the pellets spread),” she wrote.
Although Golnessa did admit that she used to love going to shooting ranges, her stance has since changed after educating herself on the topics of gun control and gun violence. However, she says she respects everyone’s opinions, and everyone should be allowed to express them regardless of differences.
“I truly believe in my heart of hearts, that guns aren’t the answer. You are ALL welcome to voice your opinions here. Let’s learn from one another,” she ended.
Reps for Golnessa, Mike, and Ben-Cohen have yet to respond when asked for statements.
