"One only wishes Wayne LaPierre and his NRA board of directors could be drafted to some of these [violent] scenes, where they would be required to put on booties and rubber gloves and help clean up the blood, the brains, and the chunks of intestine still containing the poor wads of half-digested food that were some innocent bystander’s last meal."
So wrote horror writer Stephen King in a Kindle essay Friday entitled "Guns."
"Plenty of gun advocates cling to their semi-automatics the way Amy Winehouse and Michael Jackson clung to the shit that was killing them," King wrote in his 25-page essay.

How many knife or axe murder sites has Mr. Grue cleaned up?
Someone’s been spending waaaay too much time in the horror genre.
Guy who made millions writing childish gore novels now attacks NRA. FU, you ugly weird creep.
Fortunately for America, our founding fathers were capable of taming their emotions and building a country based on logic, rational thinking, an awareness of human weakness, and the eternal need for integrity and wholeness (holiness).
As an accomplished writer, clearly he has the skills to make a concise argument.
ROTFLOL.
He’s the King of horror!
Stephen King wrote one of his creepy novels about a school shooting WAY BEFORE any kid decided to do it.
King even admitted to how bad he felt thinking that his piece of fiction may have contributed to school shootings.
So, we must conclude that his fashioning of the NRA as being to blame is actually another piece of his crappy fiction.
He writes this way because he doesn’t understand Christianity - he stabs at it, puts it under the monocle, writes epic books about it, but doesn’t understand it. He wants to, sorta.
His ego prevents him from deigning to understand. Someday he’ll wake up.
This from Mr. Issues who pulled his good short story “Rage” (written as Richard Bachman) off shelves after Columbine. Yet who’s wrote other books where hero thwarts evil with firepower. Somehow feeling guilty as if literary fiction is to blame for society’s ills? What about the nightmares you’ve caused from horror fiction then? Now this gun blather. Doesn’t make sense, sounds like personal issues to me and kissing his boy Zero’s bum.
The motion picture industry, like the music industry, sees nothing wrong with their products influencing millions of teens and pre-adolescents. As we know, society’s problems are multi-faceted and surely music, TV, movies, violent video games, etc. are a huge portion of the equation when it comes to the corruption of American youth. There’s a strong correlation, if not cause and effect, with the amount of time spent engaging and interacting with these variables and the resulting behavior of its participants.
Rhetorical question: If advertising (TV, movies, etc.) doesn’t “work” why do companies spend millions of dollars on advertising during the Super Bowl and other programming?
Finally, Mr. King and other entertainment figures, feel no responsibility whatsoever for their role in society’s downfall. After all, he’s rich and above the average person; that’s why he can ‘stand and deliver’ to us who are not in that category (rich).
...and Joan Claybrook, the lady that MANDATED air bags in cars, should pick up the head of the 100+ decapitated children and return them to their mothers.
I will not read Stephen King’s 25 page essay having already foolishly polluted my brain by reading a couple of his novels decades ago. King falls into the category of liberal I think of as the nasty, spiteful, hate-filled liberal... similar to Bill Maher. His twisted characterizations of conservatives and gun enthusiasts are just as murky and foul as the non-stop profane epithets that spew from his mouth.
S. King can Kiss my Rosy Red A**
MOLON LABE
but by now King must have responded to the proposition that in return he must clean up the remains of victims who did not have a gun to defend themselves.. that's a 24/7 task even if you omit Chicago!
