Official Red Ryder Carbine-Action Two-Hundred-Shot Range

Hey, just what you see, pal!

I'd still ask for the rifle. Then you can get all the shoes and socks you want by robbing a Foot Locker.

Meh. Still want BB gun.

If you get the gun, you can TAKE the socks and shoes.

Maybe the kids should ask for Republican parents instead of Obama worshiping lazy pricks?

Very sensible.

This article sounds exactly like the ones that came out last year. We get it, the economy still sucks. Try to be a little happier instead of reminding everybody how miserable things are.

Thunderpipes: Maybe the kids should ask for Republican parents instead of Obama worshiping lazy pricks?

Nice. I'd say 7/10.

FTA: "One little girl didn't want anything for herself. She wanted a winter coat for her mother."

This is sad.

First thought: I want to go on a horse and buggy ride. I want to go on a horse and buggy ride.

Riding on my horse.

Riding on my horse.

And buggy. Ride.

I'm a horse.

NYYAAHNFFF!!

*vomit*

And in July?

Fark 'em.

FTA: "One little girl didn't want anything for herself. She wanted a winter coat for her mother."

Agreed. Warm clothes are pretty essential if you live in a cold climate. This reminds me a little too much of stories from the Great Depression.

Yeah, my genius Republican brother is getting his 8 year old daughter a rifle for Christmas, so he can "teach her to be safe with a gun." Maybe waiting until she's old enough to fark around with one is a good lesson on being safe. Before the age of 12, gun safety should be "Don't fark with it."

AR55: FTA: "One little girl didn't want anything for herself. She wanted a winter coat for her mother."

I once read about a poor little French girl who relinquished her Christmas gift so she could buy her mother a Merkin (new window); in order that her mother might use it to hide her diseased venereal infections from tricks and not have to stop working.

that was sadder

I've been very blessed to have some good things happen in my life, even with this recent layoff. While I don't have much money, i donate food/old clothes/what little I can to shelters and programs that help out families that don't even have the little extra that I have.

And let's face it, I'm a 20-something professional who spent his lot in his young life like any other young adult: not thinking very hard about giving to others and saving a lot of money. I have shoes I've since donated because they were worn out to me (and I wore them a few times decided I didn't like them, and was going to get rid of them anyway). I have clothes that I no longer fit or just plain don't wear because I happened to update my wardrobe once or twice. And being the packrat that I am, I surely have other necessities that others can use.

Heck, even if it's a matter of volunteering my time to go down to the soup kitchen and help others, or volunteer for habitat for humanity...being laid off, it gets me off my fat arse and lets me do something productive to help others out.

I may not have much hope for our nation, but I have hope that I can give something better back to other people.

Only if you are a complete failure as a parent. I was shooting my dad's service revolver at 8 (.357 Magnum). Real parents can teach children to be real responsible. This is something liberals hate.

eraser8: Thunderpipes: Maybe the kids should ask for Republican parents instead of Obama worshiping lazy pricks?

I wouldn't wish Republicans on any child. That's just cruel. It's basically wishing stupidity on a young person.

Wishing flaming liberal democrats is no better.

I started competing in youth rifle competition at 7. I took first at 8 and a half.

/if you teach them what it is and how to be responsible with it, they won't be nearly as "HEY COOL IT'S A GUN LET'S PLAY WITH IT!"

I knew a older man, he's now about 60, who was telling me about how he accidentally blew a hole in front of his feet checking the chamber on his 9mm. He had his finger on the trigger and the slide slipped out of his grip. I told him he almost shot the most dangerous person in his house!

You know what, accidents happen no matter WHAT it is. The fact that he was sensible enough to keep the damn thing pointed in a safe direction is what counts. Unlike the jerkwad that doesn't know anything about guns and goes around pointing them at everything because it's "cool", with no regard for what might happen if the gun were to go off.

Welcome to the USA. We say we are a capitalistic democracy, but really we're a plutonomy. This is why I am seriously considering leaving the country if things don't start looking up in the next 3 years.

You do realize that the rest of the world runs to the U.S. for help and bailouts?

U.S. taxpayers just got stuck bailing out European banks... Again...

Are you going to help - or be part of the problem?

Rikyfree: Welcome to the USA. We say we are a capitalistic democracy, but really we're a plutonomy. This is why I am seriously considering leaving the country if things don't start looking up in the next 3 years.

I know a lot of people who have this attitude. The question I have is...why is it that we can have enough people in this country to form a majority that feel this way...and yet no one is willing to get off their lazy backsides and do anything about it -- putting their money where their mouth is, so to speak? After all, if the majority of the people started demanding sanity and real change out of the politicians who have been single-handedly accelerating global warming with all the hot air they spew, and stopped simply voting the idiots back into office, maybe we could really fix some of the problems around here?

Sorta like living in a shiathole of a house and complaining it's a shiathole, and complaining about the shiatty landlords and maintenance staff you have when you could just as easily get off your lazy ass and fix it up yourself.

/Sick and tired of the whining on both sides of the aisle about petty bullshiat that means nothing while people that need REAL help along with a struggling economy continue to be ignored

More than there would be if both parents and children were taught how to be safe with firearms and to treat them with respect and how to use them safely?

Only a jackass would think that by giving them a gun as a present, the gun is just going to be left out laying around as a toy for them to play with whenever. The responsible parent gives them the gift, then promptly locks it in the gun safe so they can't get at it unless they have proper supervision.

Worked for me. I never shot anyone I didn't need to, nor did I blow holes in anything without a legitimate mechanical failure.

The majority are mostly comfortable. TV and the internet act as a security blanket of sorts. They are kept off balance ever so slightly so they can be whipped into a frenzy against some foe, be it real or imagined.

some of an AK-47's components cost less than a live chicken.
Of course; once you get the AK-47, the live chiken is usually free.
