Tom Toles for February 25, 2018

The moron is the message.

I have been absolutely appalled by the number of companies that have/had NRA discounts for services. Meanwhile, perfectly sane, peaceful people pay full price? The USA has truly become a Bizarro world.

He is one disgusting piece of work. Where does he hide his Trump hickies?

THE GUN-LOBBY and THEIR SUPPORTERS – {rhyme}

The Gun Lobby’s highly discreditable

in the notions advanced in their stance

which makes much mayhem inevitable. -

- Yet supporters support them in a weird sort of trance

where the blending of “rights” with “lifes” is inequitable.

These notions we should view quite askance.

=========

LET’S RUSH TO FLUSH – {rhyme}

They pummel our ears and simply won’t hush,

Trump and his base’s Talking Heads.

Their venomous nonsense quickly spreads, -

- so let us Progressives step up our rush

to pull the chain on their potty and flush

and replace them before their damage imbeds

so deeply that America’s reduced to shreds.

=======

…but, they are only actors, right???

Trump says the Dem’s memo is a bust.Then why did he suppress it?

Very clever word play.

Until lobbying becomes more regulated, Congress will never listen. Or, vote the bums out. (What an idea!)

DISTORTED PUBESCENCE – {rhyme}

Wayne yanks his doodle, tho’ it ain’t no dandy, -

- when flapping his tongue that guns come in handy.

Such macho-filled yacking makes misfit males randy

in thinking themselves to be MACHO MEN,

their guns their phallus-like tool to send

their enemies quick to a pulverized end.

=========

If a child hits a child with a stick, do you take it away from him or arm everyone with a stick?

The NRA is a destructive lobby which has been laundering Russian money and giving it to the Republicans.

If you are tried of the mass murders of school children, ban the AR-15 and never vote for a republican.

Rightwing Literally Worships Their Guns:

PA Church to Conduct “Blessing Ceremony” for AR-15s

The GOP wants to end abortion so they have more kids to molest and shoot.

The NRA is the gun lobby, its job is marketing guns, to increase the sales of guns in the USA, and it is also a 501©(4), meaning it pays no taxes. It’s like a church and our politicians worship their god.

Actually the politicians worship the money the NRA bribes them with.

It is all about money.

Republicans are pretty keen about putting teachers’ lives on the firing line. They would be more sincere if they were putting their lives on the line. ..But when so many of them found reasons to be exempted from military service, I’m not holding out hope.

Congress has a metal detector and does not allow guns.

Having completed the mandatory safety training course for concealed weapons permit holders, Ferguson-Montgomery was in complete compliance with the law, including the provision that her gun is in her possession at all times while on school premises so that students couldn’t stumble upon it in a drawer or locker.

Whatever Ferguson-Montgomery was doing in the faculty restroom yesterday with her legal firearm, she somehow managed to shoot herself in the leg while doing it. Luckily, since it was before school had opened, no students or other staff were present and her injuries were not life-threatening.

Trump has been known to enjoy relations with many women other than his wife. We will never know how many abortions were performed because of trump’s extramarital affairs. Something for right wingers and evangelicals to think about.

ATM seems to think there can be only one cause for something. A murder can only be caused by a murderer OR by lax gun laws. Do I even need to point out his fallacy in detail?

Another perfect encapsulation in cartoon form by Tom Toles, by the way.

Wayne LaPierre, CEO of the National Rifle Association,says “you should be anxious and you should be frightened” about the potential of another Democratic takeover of the House, Senate and White House. If they seize power … our American freedoms could be lost and our country will be changed forever." Mr. LaPierre we have already lost our freedoms not by government but by guns. We have lost the freedom to attend church. We have lost the freedom for education. We have lost the freedom to attend entainment.

ANTIQUETRACMAN, is copying a trait exhibited by so many on the Right; displaying a massive case of psychological “Projection” and, at the same time, an equally massive use of “False Equivalence” in trying to excuse the Right’s “love Affair” withe the domestic terrorist organization called the “National Rifle Association”!He is using the “Yeah, but…” defense so named by me because as a child, growing up, one of my sons always started his defense of his latest “wrong action” with those two words! It didn’t work for my child and it still doesn’t work for the “Childish”! (by the way, my child “matured” out of that attempt at defense)

THE LIBERTARIAN ENTERPRISE

Number 776, June 22, 2014

Every man, woman, and responsible child has an unalienable individual, civil, Constitutional,and human right to obtain, own, and carry, openly or concealed, any weapon—rifle, shotgun, handgun, machinegun, anything—any time, any place, without asking anyone’s permission. (Actual Libertarian notion.)

Okay Mr. LaPierre, where was the good guy with a gun on February 14, 2018 and October 1, 2017?

Are you asking to be taken out by a sniper, Mr. LaPierre?
