NEW Stupid Republican Idea of the Day (Part 1)

Well, remember, these guys can write these guns off on their taxes, since it seems to be a requirement of their job to own and ostentatiously display expensive firearms.

Looking at the faces of the two older boys - the younger one has an “I can’t believe they gave that psycho older brother of mine a gun!” look on his face. Were I in his place, I’d certainly want my own gun for when the inevitable gun fight breaks out.

Have you never seen the smile of a True Patriot™?

I’m quite sure all of the fans of the Denver Broncos (and they are legion in Colorado) are thrilled to see the son of a Congresswoman wearing a Packers sweatshirt.

Garry Trudeau anticipated that need 40 years ago.

If I understand the nuances correctly, if you spend money on cookware, you’re an elitist, wasteful bitch. But, if you spend money on guns, you’re a sensible, Murika-fuck-yah, true patriot.

I also posted this in the Game Room, but it’s another stupid Republican idea, so…

A Republican Oklahoma state senator wants to rename the last westbound three inches of a remote state highway after former Oklahoma football coach Lincoln Riley, who recently left OU to take the head coaching job at USC.

Exactly.

Even if your 'murica fuck yeah money is used to buy firearms from Germany, Italy, Austria, Brazil, or even from those Godless Commies in (now non-Soviet) Russia.

I went to the same college as Garry Trudeau! Sorry, I just don’t get to boast about it very often.

You’d think they’d only buy American (or Israeli).

I think that’s too much Botox.

From the linked article, it says BoBo’s husband did jail time for exposing his penis in a bowling alley.

He should have been in the photo, doing just that.

It just gets weirder.:bowling:

My dad knew Trudeau at Yale. Says he was a stuck-up preppie.

Well, shoot. I did some checking and clearly I’ve been living a lie-he didn’t go to my college, he just let them use some of his artwork. :frowning:

C’mon man, what makes you think she spent her own money on the pea-shooters? She’s GOP, that means there is abundant fleece-the-rubes $$ sloshing around for her to scoop up for these kind of antics.

It is possible to legally own fully automatic weapons - it just takes plenty of money. I don’t know how it varies state by state, but I do know you can legally own them.

I think the take-away here is that it’s pretty insane no matter what.

Rented guns? They’re literally spending money on the appearance of being Gun Nuts to appeal to the Gun Nut Demographic.

Fake guns? There’s still the spending money part, but now they’re posing even more - they want to appear to own such guns, without actually owning them.

Real guns? The most expensive option of all, to own guns that have virtually no real-world purpose. So, actual Gun Nuts, spending ridiculous amounts of money to show off to other Gun Nuts exactly how Gun-Nutty they really are.

Bingo!

GunNuts, harder than GrapeNuts
