A Royal Pain: UK Malcontents Throw Tantrum over Prince George's Toy Gun

The United Kingdom’s legions of miserable scolds are at it again. A mere two weeks after admonishing an English national team soccer player for a firearm tattoo, the anti-gun whiners have found a new target. This time the killjoys have deemed it their station to lecture the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge on proper parenting.

The sad controversy erupted on June 10, as Kate Middleton, Prince George, and his sister Princess Charlotte watched Prince William participate in the Maserati Royal Charity Polo Trophy in Gloucestershire. During the match, four-year-old George was pictured playing in the grass with an orange-tipped toy revolver and a toy knife. According to an account from Gloucestershire Live, the revolver was a squirt gun the future king won as a carnival prize.

Soon after, the UK’s notoriously loathsome tabloid press got busy stoking a toy gun debate. The Mirror declared, “Outrage as Prince George plays with toy gun and knife on family day out amid surge in violence.” The Mirror cited a Twitter user who saw fit to judge the preschooler and his entire family by stating,

Sad to see George playing with a gun when the whole country has a gun/knife crime situation. Maybe in training for killing wild life in later years. Thought he was a sensitive child. Better if he was seen playing with a toy car or football. Sadly the royals will never change.

Another tweeted, “This isn’t okay anymore...” adding, “No child in this day and age should look at any gun as a fun toy.”

Thankfully, some of the more sensible UK subjects have come to the royals’ defense with the facts. The Independent interviewed trained UK Psychotherapist Sarah Ockwell-Smith who explained,

Why shouldn’t he have a toy gun? He will no doubt be raised to hunt and will do a stint in the Royal Army, Navy, or Air Force as is expected of the men in the royal family.

Why?

Because it offends prying, always outraged, better-than-thou liberals.

Boys no longer allowed to have toys they enjoy.

Of course they cannot grow up without being drugged to prevent them from being boys, either.

Cant raise either boys or girls properly with proper corporal punishment so they can behave without havng someone hovering over them every second.

Bet they would prefer the boy be made to wear a pink dress and play with barbie dolls, all the better to emasculate the child for life in future Britainistan

(Even then, the lad would point the doll and go "bang")

Had he been wearing heels and make-up, he would have made the cover of vogue with much applause.

A. Water. Pistol. D'oh! kids should be required to have water pistols... (parents for self-defense) ~ a kid who never had a water pistol is a victim of bad parenting.

My nephew has a few toy guns and loves them. He goes to a Jewish school where many of the parents served in the Israeli army, so being around guns is no biggie thank God his teacher is not a Commie! Prince George looks super cute but of course commie libs make a fuss about EVERYTHING

And this is why England will be part of the European caliphate.
Too many of the real men killed off in two world wars.
Sadly Prince George probably has more testosterone than the rest of England.

BTW mom is looking great!
A wonderful addition to the royals genetic pool.

Harry might return to his old ways once the novelty of marriage to Markle wears off and he tires of catering to her way of living.

Some insane bastards wished he were gay. May all liberals quickly see an end to their miserable existence.
They can’t stand that the boy is normal. (Not gay, likes to play with toy guns.)

Why do they turn everything into a symbol, which they then try to make into their own image?

Why are liberals compelled to destroy everything that is good and to turn it into trash?
