Guns a popular Christmas gift this holiday season
Source: KSDK
Guns are a popular Christmas gift. Black Friday was the biggest day of gun sales this year, according to the FBI. It's single day sales record. The agency tracks the sales by counting background check requests for gun purchases. This year, the FBI got more than $200,000 just on Black Friday.
"This is very common in our society to buy guns for Christmas presents,” King said. "Personal defense and home defense played a big part."
But some would disagree.
"I would not give a gun for Christmas because I believe a gun is a deadly weapon."

23. I really hate this country. Somebody get me out!
:bird: This is the greatest country in the world to live in. I will gladly buy you a one way ticket to a country of your choice. That would be after you receive a throat punch.

North Korea or Venezuela come to mind.

Send them to Antarctica. It should be tropical paradise by now, right?

what's keeping you here? Waiting for your fellow DUmmies to crate a GoFundMe account to buy your airfare out?
Remember DUmmy...

It advocates for gun confiscation. The NRA is the organization whose members teach gun handling and safety classes, and have for 50 years I know of personally.

1. How many weapons did Jesus carry?
Does Santa pack a weapon?
If Jesus had an AK47 he would still be alive today.
Santa only packs in the hood. He has a 9mm hi cap glock with a 30 round clip that fires assault bullets.

Nobody in my family spends that much on gifts.
So I bought myself one.

Of course DUmmy hunter's family, friends, neighbors and anyone in the know have formed a line in front of his bedchamber to present him with all manner of gifts in a feeble effort to gain his pleasure...

35. If you are buying a gun as a gift for anyone in my family...
... make sure it's a gun you can eat 'cause it's gonna get chopped up into small pieces and served to you as your Christmas dinner. With gravy on top, still warm from gun's encounter with the angle grinder. Sorry about the sharp edges.
Bless us our Lord, and don't expect any welcome back next Christmas.
Gun person consider yourself lucky. <---- :lmao: The older family tradition would be shove your guns up your ass, tie you down to the horse you rode in on, and send you away. <--- :lmao: Pity your horse. God I miss my great grandmas. They were all steely eyed women of the Wild West and they had zero tolerance for foolish men with guns. <--- :lmao:
My wilderness born grandma could kill or maim or castrate any bad man with her words. She didn't need guns or knives to hurt people. She was extremely proficient with both knives and guns. Thankfully these were skills reserved only in preparation of dinner. We ate the Easter Bunny one Easter (or one of his helpers) but she never bagged a reindeer.
Word to the wise. When bringing tidings and firearms of great joy to brother hunters manger, don't forget to bring the joy gel!

I love it when the religiously illiterate try to invoke Jesus:

What Jesus said:
Thinkest thou that I cannot now pray to my Father, and he shall presently give me more than twelve legions of angels?
A Roman legion being on the order of 6,00 men, Jesus had at His command more than 72,000 angels, if it suited His purposes. Isaiah recorded an occasion when one angel slaughtered an army of 185,000 in one night. I'll leave that math to the terminally curious.

It all boils down to the fact that most DUmmies cannot pass the NICS background check so getting a gun for Christmas or buying one for personal use is not in the cards. It's a matter of "since I can't have one you can't have one either".

WOW!! you're a real f**king bad ass. Maybe your grandma's words weren't the reason , maybe she had thermo nuclear halitosis.
