It just seems like a joke, propagandized by the left in an attempt to prove the NRA is crazy.

Liberals: Honestly I was wrong bout em.

Why would the left need to attempt to prove the NRA is crazy? They prove that themselves often enough.

No worse than any of the others pro-rights groups. Its just one you disagree with, and therefor that makes it crazy.

again i dont see the issue, except to say look at the crazy gun people.
The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion … but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.

The most fundamental problem of politics is not the control of wickedness but the limitation of righteousness.

It helps if you find someone arguing for a particular position before you start arguing against it.

The idea of these is ridiculous in the first place, simply owning one would be hilarious to show off. Plus, target practice, no?

i think the majority of men who buy these things will do so not just because they are saddo gun nuts, but just to pretend to others that they've actually once had a girlfriend :rofl:

Apparently. I'm not the one making the argument, though. It seems mostly sad to me.

It's a tasteless ex-girlfriend joke. The fact that you shoot it makes it no more tasteless and no more dangerous than any other ex-girflriend joke.

By 'propagandized' do you mean 'noticing'?
"...I have been gravely disappointed with the white moderate. I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in the stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Council-er or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I can't agree with your methods of direct action;" who paternalistically feels he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by the myth of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait until a "more convenient season." -MLK Jr.

Except when I say "My ex-girlfriend left me for another man, which is fortunate because she doesn't know he's got herpes." I'm not shooting a simulacra of her in an effort to make said simulacra bleed and fly apart gorily.

Except nothing, I don't consider that a worthwhile distinction.
