Default The lighter side of Firearms

This one may possibly spark more negativity (I hope not) against firearms in general, but since I have been hitting back against the negative side so much from the pro side, I think its also time to hit the funny side to help balance things out!

PS. Please save your debate for the other thread! Thanks.

TOP TEN REASONS REGULAR CITIZENS SHOULD BE ABLE TO OWN ASSAULT RIFLES

10. Sometimes you're too mad for just a normal gun.

9. If you see a dozen deer in one meadow, how else are you supposed to shoot them all before they run away?

8. Self-defense sometimes involves "assaulting" a fortress.

7. Keeping control of a fully automatic weapon helps build upper body strength.

6. If we're not allowed to have assault rifles, that will make us mad and we have other guns.

5. Not as impressive writing your name in the wall with a semi-automatic.

4. For elderly people with arthritis, it may be painful for them to hit the trigger multiple times.

3. What if dragons are real and one tries to mug you in a dark alley.

2. I don't how good a reason this is, but after I've had a few beers in me I'm always like, "Man, would it be cool to have an assault rifle right now."

And the number one reason regular citizens should be able to own assault rifles...

This is America; we don't have to give a g'damn reason for owning something.

I'll repeat what I said elsewhere: If you can't laugh at yourself you have no real sense of humor; and you have no business laughing at anyone else.

Is one day after a massacre took place really good timing, and the right thing to make jokes of? They are even not buried yet, and you guys already start laughing, while their relatives are shown on TV attending the a first rememberance ceremony?

C'mon Sailor Steve, I'm sure you know that better. I'm surprised that this posting was coming from you.

I know! I wait for moments like this!

I did crack up reading it though, and it is so appropriate to todays threads since it is so out in right field that you can help smile vs. what else we have been posting today!

Try 2 weeks if you buy something concealable, unless you have been checked out by the FBI beforehand.
