Vince Neil

As we recently reported, Motley Crue vocalist Vince Neil found himself in a Twitter battle after advocating gun control while reacting to the horrific shooting in Newtown, Conn. After withstanding a barrage of criticism and firing off additional tweets attacking those who challenged him, Neil has now posted that he was "misunderstood" and offered apologies to those he offended.

The tragedy that unfolded last Friday (Dec. 14) in Newtown, Conn. has provoked a wide variety of responses, as well as a renewed national debate over gun control laws and mental health policy -- and, as it turns out, Motley Crue singer Vince Neil has his own viewpoint to add to the discussion, whether his fans agree or not.
