So called "Assault Weapons Bans" such as the now expired 1994 Clinton ban and the one still in place in states such as California seek to ban rifles that our misguided legislators feel have no purpose in civilian hands. They identify "evil features" they can use to generically classify these "military style" weapons in sweeping terms. Of course these features, such as plastic pistol grips, barrel shrouds, and bayonet lugs have absolutely nothing to do with the firearms potential lethality in the real world and are merely cosmetic features. After all, it really doesn't matter what color the firearm is if it fires the same ammunition right? Well, in the "spirit" of the California Assault Weapon Ban I decided to do my best to alleviate the fears of my fellow citizens and gun-banning legislators when I put together a new AR-15 for my wife. Below is the result of my painstaking work to transform an Evil Black Rifle (EBR) into a Cute Pink RIfle (CPR). Introducing the Hello Kitty AR-15!
Love your about page, especially Calvin & Hobbes.
If this is for real you’ve got a good business idea here....
That guys a goner...
I haven't been a beleaguered parent for a long time, not since my daughter graduated college four or five years ago. But even when she was in high school, this would have been sick. I understand your point on the commercialism and that it gets nauseating at times but replacing one nauseating item for another is no solution. Other folks have different sensitivities. I'm home alone on New Years Eve and my wife is visiting her elderly father (a highly decorated hero of WWII and my personal hero for the daughter he raised) because our elderly cat can't spend even one night being boarded or it will kill her. We all agreed that this was the only action to take. Does that make us suckers? Probably, by your definition. I'm not going to belabor the post or dwell on it anymore or take it any farther. Plain and simple the pic offends me, but it's your right to post it and that's that. I don't have to look at it but I don't have to like it, either. We can agree to disagree like mature adults.
Thanks for the ping.
