What would Jesus do?

He would blast those motherfuckers to Kingdom Come with hollow points and then get some women pregnant.

To be fair, it is not being presented as a sentence in the classical sense. In the image on her bus, it is

\* jesus  
\* guns  
\* babies

(where the "\*"s are red stars)

It is more like bullet points. Still, a woman who spells her name “Kandiss”, that is kinda hard to take seriously.

No, Jesus Guns Babies. Tosses them up in the air for target practice.

( I saw it on the side of a bus in Georgia. )

[And yet another pubbie decides to lie about his proposed legislation](https://www.the74million.org/article/bill-would-bring-nra-gun-safety-classes-into-all-arizona-schools/):

> Although Nguyen insisted that no NRA material would be distributed to students, that’s not correct. He acknowledged that the bill was designed to require schools to use the “Eddie Eagle” gun safety program. The NRA created “Eddie Eagle,” an [animated anthropomorphic eagle](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qy3i1XL1TXI) who teaches gun safety alongside his “wing team,” in 1988.

One of his fellow legislators has this to say to opposition to the bill:

> “I can’t think of any parent in their right mind that wouldn’t want this,” Rep. John Kavanagh, R-Fountain Hills, said. “I would forward the name and address of the parent to child protective services if they opted out of this.”

Don’t want your kids around guns? Then you’re not a fit parent!

Jesus Christ.

From your link:  
“The JR-15 is only 31 inches (80 centimeters) long, weighs less than 2.5 pounds (one kilogram) and comes with magazines of five or 10 rounds of 22 caliber bullets. It was released in mid-January with a price tag of $389.”  
Here is a link to Wee 1 Tactical’s website, and all I’ve got to say is that their logo is in amazingly bad taste:

That logo is stamped on the gun itself, btw, and did you notice that there are no sights at all on this weapon?

Looking at the site pictures, it does look like a red dot sight is on the Wee1. It’s visible on both the picture with the girl sighting down it and the one comparing size.

Ah, I didn’t look into it that far.  
And the pictures didn’t show enough about iron sights.

Probably were just wanting the kids to be able to customize the guns personally. Maybe with a red  
MAGA scope!

If they want to introduce chilluns to the “shooting sports” a gun modeled after an assault rifle seems wrong. A hunting rifle maybe, but a military assault rifle? So warfare is a shooting sport now.
