Evidently New Yorkers Against Gun Violence has accepted defeat on "real guns"...

So now they are trying to ban an Iphone emoji....No I am not making this up....

1. The Bill of Rights

[Nuclear Unicorn]

5. If you gun fanatics accepted it as literally as you pretend you'd recognize the Bill of Rights

only pertains to people named Bill! So spare me your NRA talking points!

IGNORE!

2. is there a colt 1911 one?

I will have to check on it and request one if not.

[sarisataka]

3. That is so

pathetic.

Next will the next step be; petition Webster to remove the word gun from the dictionary?

[branford]

4. Please tell me this isn't real and was produced by The Onion?

If not, I'm willing to make a trade.

Removal of iphone gun icons in exchange for concealed carry reciprocity.

Let no one say I'm not willing to compromise...

[Nuclear Unicorn]

6. Thank goodness they didn't squander the money on something as pointless as

gun safety classes and trigger locks.

[ileus]

7. What a bunch of goofy turds.

Don't they have a lion to worry about or some real problem???

9. If only recycling cans could be made out of 100% recycled materials

Now there's something to spend some time on.

[the band leader]

8. well at least they're admitting defeat. That's some progress.

10. Culture war.

They want to make gun ownership a social taboo.

[Lurks Often]

11. They don't seem to grasp that the average gun owner could care less what they think

Why should I care what some stranger thinks about me and the interests I choose to pursue?

If anything I'm more amused then offended by the gun control extremists and their constant lies, intellectual dishonesty and contemptible hypocrisy of not seeming to care about people murdered by means other then guns or that they never seem to care about inner city violence either.

13. Their big problem is...

It's only a social taboo, in their minds...Their is no way they can get around the fact that gun control is extremely unpopular in the vast majority of the nation. When 95% of the of the candidates that the NRA supported in the last election won, there's your answer.

They can wish in the one hand, and crap in the other, and lets see which gets filled first.

14. Ever since Taylor Swift, everyone wants to get in on the act.

[Eleanors38]

12. I just gave vent, loudly...

I tried to "pass" it off as a low-note on a trombone (no one using it in the coffee shop), or a Harley Davidson (for some reason the streets are clear of them), so all eyes were on...

"IT WAS ME!!"

Damn the aging process. Some of your finest skills of obfuscation and projection are the first to go.
