“The problem, you see, is that a whole lot of very stupid people went out and bought assault rifles because the NRA and other conspiracy groups were very, very sure that Barack Obama was going to ban them when he took office, or after he took office, or during any particular season, or when he re-took office, and so on. And more very stupid people went out and bought them after the brutal shootings of elementary school students in Newtown, Connecticut, because they too thought there was some slim chance that America would pull its head out of its ass and finally do something to maybe stop very stupid and/or crazy people from purchasing assault rifles in order to ‘protect themselves’ from elementary school children, people who walk on the neighbor’s property without permission, or car crash victims who knock on their doors seeking help.” – Hunter, Assault rifle sales sluggish because cruel dictator Obama still hasn’t banned them [via dailykos.com]
