National Buy a Gun Month

Every time there's a high profile shooting, the anti-gun crowd attempts once again to steal the property of millions of Americans or restrict their economic rights to own a legitimate consumer product. Of course, attempts to make a product less dangerous by restricting its access have met with failure already in the form of outlawing drugs and age restrictions on alcohol, often leading to more accidents or violence than would normally exist if the product was legal. But, hey, I'm sure it'll work with guns. It's not like people commit crimes with stolen or illegally obtained guns right? Where does that happen? (Except, of course, for pretty much every major American city, where gun control is strictest.)

But I've found that reason doesn't tend to sit well with the anti-gun crowd. For instance, a reasonable human being would not be pissed off by another human being owning a commercially sold consumer product. (Though this rule could reasonably exclude iPads, books in the Twilight series, and any article of casualwear costing over sixty dollars.) However, just owning a gun is enough for some anti-gun activists to consider you a hateful, violent, Bambi-killing redneck, and, simply because owning guns seems to annoy these people so much, I propose National Buy a Gun Month.

This month could be any month of the year, and could have a different recommended gun each day. For instance, July 9th (to pick a random date) could be Benelli M4 day, the 10th, Remington 700 day, the 11th, S&W 686 day, and so on.

This adorable little Heckler and Koch SL8-6 needs a home.

For only $2,500, you could make a difference.

I think July would be best because it's the same month as July 4, and that would REALLY annoy the anti-gun crowd.

So in July, if anyone still reads this blog, which I doubt, look out for the separate blog I'll be starting, the National Buy a Gun Month blog, which will feature a different firearm each day. But remember, you don't have to wait until July. Anytime is a good time to buy a gun. They're fun, functional, and useful. And they annoy liberals, which, I believe, is as good a reason as any.
