They're quickly becoming the Krusty the Clown of nonprofit organizations.

Well, I think I'm beginning to see what their alternative to supporting Planned Parenthood is now.

I was 99.9% sure this was satire.

It's not.

Poor, desperate people make wonderful targets, I guess.

The only cross-promotion that could be more tasteless is if someone starts selling
pink coat hangers

You know that's gone through their heads.

I really don't understand this organization anymore.
are they trying to lower the amount of donations they get due to some weird tax rule?
 
2012-02-03 09:29:06 AM
Oh now come on. I have no problem with guns, but have a little class! What do firearms have to do with cancer?

Good , now I can shoot cancer away!
 
2012-02-03 09:30:49 AM
A friend of mine has a Pink 22 Red Rider that we found at the Bass Pro near us. We shoot at an outdoor range ocasionally and she loves that damn thing. I have a feeling a pink P-22 would be right up her alley...

Quick, easy, inexpensive cure.

"To show our commitment to life, we're cutting ties with Planned Parenthood and manufacturing some sweet gats instead."
 
2012-02-03 09:31:41 AM
This is becoming genuinely comical.

I hear they'll be on Broadway with a production of "Springtime for Hitler".
 
2012-02-03 09:32:16 AM

So...they're now pro-gun and anti-abortion.

My theory is they are trying to capitalize on donations from the fundie/republican types. That and this:

I'm so glad I read on Fark about SJK suing anyone using "for the Cure" because it might confuse stupid people. Ever since then, they got jack shiat from me. As soon as I showed others they pulled their support.

Forgot which farker said it but if you really want to donate, donate directly to someplace. Don't use some middleman like SJK. You won't know that they're only using a portion of what you donate for the cause.

They've gone past full derp and have reached Derp Critical Mass... Now we just have to see if it goes Nuclear or even Thermonuclear...
 
2012-02-03 09:33:09 AM
Still no cure to the Sterns-Komen cancer that attacks non-profit groups and politicizes them.
 
2012-02-03 09:33:35 AM
My Aunt cured her cancer with a pistol, so perhaps they are on the right track.
 
2012-02-03 09:34:10 AM
Sorry you have cancer, but here's a gun to help with that.

Thought It was an Onion article.

Perfect for shooting abortion doctors.

PLEASE give your money to one of the many reputable cancer charities, and not Komen.

I need a pink gun cuz I'm such a girl!

If I had a vagina I'd be embarrassed to have a gun "just for girls like me!"

My wife hates pink NFL jerseys for this same reason.

Somehow this is funny to me.
 
2012-02-03 09:37:17 AM
So has this organisation always been run by right-wing radicals, or is this something of a new development?

This is what Susan would have wanted.

Jesus Christ, did these guys just hire Ralph Farking Reed as their director or something? Let me guess, next they will be selling pink Laffer curve magnet graphs to put on your fridge to remind you how economics REALLY works.
 
2012-02-03 09:38:49 AM
You've got cancer and no insurance...kill yourself so your family can keep their home.

Imagine if the NAACP had a commemorative firearm for Black History Month.
 
2012-02-03 09:39:06 AM
Boy, three Komen threads in two days. Me thinks they have just jumped the shark.

SuburbanCowboy: Perfect for shooting abortion doctors.

This is a funny comment, but also a comment much closer to reality than is comfortable.

Fark Susan® G. Komen™ for the Coin©.

To me it just seems like blatant pandering for profit. I don't even think it looks good with the black frame. YMMV.

So it has "Math Is Hard" etched on the side too?

I think Robert Smith should sue them in response.

My GF wants to get a CCL and carry. But wants a pink gun. Which, ironically enough are pretty hard to find so it doesn't leave you with many choices. Even crimson-trace grips don't seem to come in pink.

I can't wait for the used market of pink handguns to take off so I can pick one up. Don't really want to spend time cruising the gun shows looking for pink.

I would say new keyboard, but this is a laptop. I'll just say "windex, please."

This would make an excellent Valentine's gift for your loved one.

What's wrong with a pink pistol? Gun companies have been making them for years.

But aborting babies? So-called "progressives" think that's a wonderful idea.

They make swag jerseys for gansta thugs too, you know.

Plenty of people wear the pink. The marketing teams know how to exploit people quite well.

So, after this and the stem cell article...

Do all the people claiming that SGK isn't a socially conservative political organization feel really, really silly now?

Who am I kidding, of course they don't. SGK is now walking, quacking, swimming, and flying like a duck and they're still going to try and tell me it's a frog.

I'm wondering if pink toilet paper is being produced as we speak, with a special pink Charmin bear plush to go along with it.

StrangeQ: So has this organisation always been run by right-wing radicals, or is this something of a new development?

It's a relatively new development. (new window)

Gun shows and trekkie conventions are terrible places to look for pink.

Your wife is correct, sir.
(And it probably is somewhat amusing. An ex of mine used to get herself all worked up over the same thing. High comedy.)

The irony is so thick I can use it for spackle.
