This week in Crazy Racist Gun Nut Playhouse

by Hunter

Holy effing eff, these people are nuts. Whenever someone asks how much of the current hysteria from the gun fetishists is based on crazy-ass racism and general hallucinatory fantasies as to the imminent doom of lily-white America, point them to this, and stand back:

(Gun Owners of America president Larry Pratt) predicted that President Obama may begin confiscating guns in order to provoke a violent response to justify further oppression, which host Stan Solomon feared would lead to the imprisonment of hundreds of thousands of people.

Pratt once again insisted that Obama is acting like King George III, a sentiment with which Solomon concurred, saying, “That will happen quickly and they will wipe those people out to set an example.”

But Solomon wasn’t finished: “I believe they will put together a racial force to go against an opposite race resistance, basically a black force to go against a white resistance, and then they will claim anyone resisting the black force are doing it because they are racist.”

Howard agreed: “You may be right because he has been sowing the seeds of racial hatred; we were healing quite well as a nation on racial issues until Obama came along and now we have a lot of racial discord.”

First off, nice touch on the Mr. Rogers sweaters, that really adds a capping touch of surrealism to the whole batshit enterprise. Second off, if you believe President Obama is planning to put together an army of black people to hunt down white people and take their guns away, or whatever the hell that was, then Oh My God you are the pitch-perfect example of someone who should never, under any circumstances, be allowed to own a gun, or a knife, or even a sharp pencil. It's felt markers for you or nothing, buddy. All of these people are about one dark-skinned mailman away from declaring that the race wars are upon us, climbing to the top of their very own custom-built wood pallet clock towers, and shooting anything that moves.

See, this is what I'm talking about. If you own guns primarily because you think you will someday need those guns in order to someday start shooting at the government for wanting to take those guns, then you are the exact sort of person who should not be owning guns. Good Lord—the NRA wants us to start making a big, national list of crazy people? We've found another three, and make sure to use a bold font for these ones.

There's a difference between a gun hobbyist or enthusiast and a militia-styled fetishist. The enthusiasts are perfectly reasonable people, and are generally in favor of things like basic public safety. The fetishists, on the other hand, predicate their gun arguments on the potential need for "legitimate" mass violence or anti-government violence; the only varying detail is what the suggested last straw should/will be, from their surrounding society, before it happens. And it's the fetishists that have taken over the debate for the last two decades, and it's the fetishists that, ironically, Congress bows and scrapes to.

3. Maybe someone should write these people a letter ans send it by Pony Express they do not

Have to be surrounded when drones are used. Can't you picture a bunch of then surrounding the drone, what a laugh. They are terrorists plain and simple. Maybe they should also be told they are the minority and the majority rules. BTW, Democrats has weapons also.

4. I didn't even read down

before thinking, " I have to post something about those Mr. Rogers-style sweaters. "


Holy Land-of-Make-Believe...


There are no words condemning enough for that level of irresponsible, batshit-lunatic, sociopathic drivel.

But the damn sweaters are what gets me....

[BainsBane]

5. These are the terrorists who threaten America

far more than jihadi groups.

[Kalidurga]

6. Mr. Rogers wore a cardigan.

Those are ugly pull overs. That aside their views are twice as ugly as their sweaters and they are twice as crazy as bat shit insane.

7. These sonsabitches have been drinking out of hubcaps

Back in the hills of East Tennesse, we had a problem. Folks would
toss old car hubcaps on the ground inthe yard and let rainwater collect in them so
the dogs would have something to drink. Problem was, over time, the
chromium salts on the hubcaps would seep into the water and, after a
couple of years, the chromium salts would eat at the dogs brains and
you'd have a couple of absolutely batshit crazy, staggering,
tail-twitching, chasing-their-own-tail, howling-at-the-moon dogs.

These guys in this video have been drinking out of hubcaps.

8. Awesome analysis of the week!

9. They are getting crazier by the day.

But this psycho has about as much credibility of starting a war as Cart man does.

[Swede Atlanta]

10. These guys are crazy.....

Racial relations were getting better before Obama was elected? WTF? I suggest his election supports that position...how else could we have elected the first African-American president if we hadn't made progress?

Oh...well because people looked back at the 8 years of the failed Bush presidency and said, enough. But as soon as Obama was elected the racism began.

So which is it dude? Things were moving along fine until the first true test of how fine things were came under scrutiny.

The fact we elected Obama in the first place and then re-elected him suggests progress. But the hatred and violence projected against this president is unprecedented. That suggests that as much as people say we are a post-racial nation, we are far from it.

I love the guy who suggests there will be a black force come against the white force. Where in hell does that come from? Where will these "black forces" come from? Let's see the President's cabinet and advisors are what 90% white? So where is the "black" conspiracy?

These talking heads make me want to go out and get a gun (but I won't because that is stupid). But you know there are times when I think....you know...you are so stupid you should be eliminated. I'm waiting for the days when the "good guys" like me get a ray-gun that will simply evaporate the "bad guys".....SARCASM
