Many celebrities have participated in the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge to raise money for the cause, but not many of them have put a put a spin on the challenge like Orlando Jones. The actor used a bucket filled with bullet casings and poured it over his head. He then stated, “I’m a lifetime member of the NRA and an active member of the great state of Louisiana’s police force, obviously a special member. So I’m not pointing any fingers here at anybody but myself, and I’m asking something very hard of myself. I’m challenging myself to listen without prejudice, to love without limits, and to reverse the hate. So that’s my challenge to me, and hopefully you’ll accept this challenge too.”
Orlando still said that he is donating money to the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge while bringing attention to the important issue of the Mike Brown shooting.
