Rolling Stone has compiled a definitive record of “The 5 Most Dangerous Guns in America.” They are, and I’m not kidding here:
Pistols

Revolvers

Rifles

Shotguns

Derringers

Well. The internet will not tolerate such nonsense.

Just one page of the over 2200 comments offered thus far include:

I'm still trying to figure out where I can get me one o' them dangerous derringers.

It appears she forgot all the schoolyard guns, which are evidently very dangerous
1-finger guns, with unlimited magazines and nearly silent, aside from the "pew-pew"
2-squirt guns-proven very effective against wicked witches
3-toy soldier guns- easily concealed, military weapons, can amass an army easily
4-paper guns- readily made, never ending supply. AKA throw away gun
5-pop-tart guns- AKA suicide gun as it's as bad for the shooter as the victim

She forgot Shoguns. Those are dangerous. Especially ones that are also Ninjas.


George Mason > justltl  • 2 minutes ago   

They are on the list, number 4 right before derringers.

Government is the greediest, most corrupt and murderous force on Earth.

Governments, primarily "redistributionist" governments, have murdered 262 million of their own citizens since the beginning of the 20th century.

And governments own LOTS of guns.

I find the Derringer quite useful in repelling ne'er-do-wells, scalawags, half-rats, tradesmen and other such low-class fiends when I'm about the town. I'm particularly fond of how well it fits in my trouser pockets, leaving plenty of room for my opera glasses and silk hankerchief!

Those guns would appear less dangerous if they had Tsarnaev, the tussle haired boy, posing with them! That’s why they rejected those photos.

The Five Deadliest Animals:
1. Mammals
2. Primates
3. Reptile
4. Fish
5. Cats
While Alfred Hitchcock popularized the dangers of birds, definitions of "dangerous" vary and most bird-related dangers come from falling due to panic trying to avoid them. We do know, however, actual birds are a small minority of animal-related injury.

The five most dangerous sports cars:
1. The VW Beetle with a Derringer.

5. The Matchbox 1968 Mercury Cougar with the Boss 302 instead of the standard 289 cubic inch with a Derringer.

Sorry...I know the list is absurd but I have to say I'm impressed with #4. As stupid as this article is, it's the only one where an AR-15 is correctly indicated as a rifle and not pushed into some made up 'assault weapon' category.

I must say, the person who wrote this is a very special kind of stupid. Lets not forget the moron of an editor either for letting something this bad even appear in the pages of Rolling Stone.
