    Cracked.com article on gun owners

    Did anybody see this? They posted it last October. The writers at Cracked.com are friggen hillarious. I feel like this is a pretty fair assessment of our situation. Sounds like the writer has a decent understanding of gun laws. I can laugh at everything he says. Hope you can too.

      Keep in mind it's comedy. We have to be able to laugh at ourselves too. Nothing too inflammatory in here though. Actually, it doesn't read like an ignorant anti news article. The writer avoids all major pitfalls when it comes to guns. No gunshow loophole, no sporting purposes, no BS basically.

                "Gun laws in the US are confusing. You can be totally legal, drive over an invisible line and be a criminal. It is a legal system designed by Escher and built by W. Heath Robinson.

                Concealed carry permitted. Concealed carry illegal. Open carry permitted. Open carry illegal. .22 caliber a no no, or carry a .50 Browning. Do not bend, fold, spindle or mutilate. We're from the government, we are here to help.
                "

                  I think this might be the best gun article I ever read!

                        I usually enjoy their humor, so chances are I will like reading this. God, I can waste so much time on that site, it's not even funny.

                          Holy crap I know. I have banned myself from reading Cracked.com while at work because I literally laugh out loud way too much when I'm on that site. Excellent investigative articles and really funny writing.

                            If only the R party were really 100% pro gun. Romney and his kind should be kicked as far away from any elected office or miniscule opportunity at it as possible.

                              Have registered just to say I was really flattered and pleased to find this discussion on my topic! I spent a LONG time trying to get it and keep it balanced and honest, as well as funny.
                              Apparently, I did a good job, it will be running on the front page soon, thanks, in part, to your warm reception of it.

                              Thank you all.
