I didn’t play the piece because I didn’t want my blood pressure to go out of control, so maybe when he talks it isn’t as obvious, but…Is it just me, or does this guy look a little bit like a very young Josh Marshall?
I thought it WAS him and that this was a joke. Sadly it isn’t.
The human race is nuts. We’re a diseased species. On our way out.
Look how they’re moving the argument:
This guy must be the demented spawn of Wayne LaPierre and Joe Arpaio.
Makes sense to me. If a student is the best shot in her class she could take out all her classmates. Even a GOTP troll with an IQ of 57 could become the smartest kid in it’s class!
Imagine a world populated by only the Sarah Failin’, Michelle Squawkman, and Screwy Louie Gohmnerts types.
Forced, mandatory gun ownership is the next step. The number of people who own guns continues to decline and gun sales have been maintained solely by convincing those who want them that twenty guns per person makes you safer than ten, and fifty makes you safer than twenty. At some point, even the mouth breathers, paranoid neurotics and OCD collectors accept the reality of the law of diminishing returns and begin scratching their itch to acquire and fondle new toys by swapping rather than new acquisitions. Forcing people who don’t want them to buy them is the only way to save LaPierre from having to park his psychopathic ass down on toilet seats that are merely plated with gold. .
Libertarian hipster douchenozzles are the next generation of NRA management.
This reminds me of the early tobacco company memos on how to get kids smoking.
It’s almost a Saturday night live skit, dreamed up by the crazy marketing people at Guns, Inc, thinking about how to keep the gravy train going for the gun industry.
The effort to “treat guns as a need” so that the government would “subsidize” gun ownership in this country, is simply disgusting.
It does look like the gun industry is running out of customers.
Although it does not deal with guns directly, I highly recommend Thank You For Smoking to get an idea of why this rhetoric actually works.
You should really read the book but lame-os can just watch the movie.
A better idea would be to simply shoot this clown.
Put him out of his misery - and ours.
Further proof that the NRA pimps for the firearms industry.
No doubt the NRA would require kids to memorize the Rifleman’s
Creed instead of the Gettysburg Address. Wonder if part of the test
for advancing to the next grade would include performing the manual
of arms. The lunacy of the NRA never ceases to amaze.
Where to start with this?
We limit access to guns because they are DANGEROUS. Yeah, it’s true a little knowledge is dangerous and the NRA just made a good case on why people need to be educated.
If there were no guns there would be no deaths by gunshot. We already know that the current level of gun ownership creates 30,000 deaths by gunshot each year in the USA. If we increase gun ownership then it stands to reason that gun deaths will increase.
Did you know that in 2015 more people in the USA will die from gunshot than will die in automobile accidents? Now consider how many vehicles there are and how much use they get compared to firearms. The conclusion … guns are more dangerous than automobiles yet we had the courage and determination to regulate auto safety. When will we begin effective gun regulation?
This is an Onion story, right? These people are evil. What is the point of living in the USA, if you have to arm yourself? It totally defeats being in a civilized, first world country. It totally defeats the evolution of humankind. The NRA greedy bastard board members are spawns of Satan. There’s no other explanation. No other.
Gun nuts. fucking. crazy.
The NRA oozes cowardice.
Reading, Writing & Shooting (no one really needs math anyway)
i don’t have to imagine it a world run by dumbs**t conservatives. i live in a world in which the freakin’ supreme court has come to the oh so logical and legally consistent decisions that corporations are people and christian corporations don’t have to follow the laws they don’t like.
Yes. Let’s establish a proficiency test where the students have to shoot an apple off the head of a NRA commentator, William Tell style.
Who knew Josh moonlights for the NRA?
Get a shave, ya bum!
