assault rifle
This is pretty standard anti-gun rhetoric:
Yawn. I really wish they would get new material. The whole “this rifle looks scary” thing just shows their ignorance.
The NEED argument is getting annoying too. Come up with something better.

A Del Monte x Dole collab as you can see:
High capacity assault clips oh my!
Who knows maybe if there’s another war, companies like Dole and Del Monte really will start stepping up and manufacturing AR-15 magazines with their current equipment? Stranger things have happened.
Actually, it’s important to remember… 30 is standard.
Optical Illusion art at its finest. This is incredible:
Artist Michael Murphy of Milledgeville, GA want’s to get the conversation about gun control going. On display at the Association for Visual Arts (AVA) in Chattanooga TN until the end of June.
“Guns are fetishized in the U.S.,” says Murphy, an artist and assistant professor of art and technology at Georgia College. “Many, many Americans love guns. I’m creating a giant gun. Gun enthusiasts should love the piece.”
“I just want people to keep talking about guns [and] why we should have guns,” he says. “Communication is necessary because I don’t see any sort of solution being proposed.”
As a visitor moves off the correct vantage point, “you watch the gun disappear. It turns into particles. It reminds me of the lives taken by gun violence.”
Full story and details over at the Times Free Press.
Like most gun related art, the intended purpose of this is to get people to complain about how “guns kill people” and how we should ban them. I’m obviously not for that, but I would like this badass installation in the foyer of my ENDO mansion someday. Sadly the nature of pingpong balls means they will blow around a lot in the breeze I’ll be getting off the ocean. Michael Murphy and I will have to figure something out… maybe platinum balls painted black just to make people mad?
Lots more pictures on Michael Murphy‘s website.

I don’t think this video was originally meant to be funny:
But as you can see it’s hilarious. Ban assault muskets. I know some of you are going to say “It’s because the powder is black, isn’t it?”
OMG How did he miss that shot?!
The group that came out with this hilarious vid is called “States United To Prevent Gun Violence”… and if you didn’t think that name was shitty enough sounding check out the acronym it makes: “SUP GV” Like… what up Gun Violence? How you doin’?

FACT: The AR-15 was initially designed to fire bubbles and butterflies:
People are going to believe whatever the mainstream media tells them, unless they care enough to do the leg work to educate themselves. I agree with what MrColionNoir said though that all guns are definitely dangerous, that’s the point.
<— Ban t-shirts that mock bans.
