WASHINGTON, Dec. 20 /U.S. Newswire/ -- Santa Claus points a handgun at a masked terrorist on a Christmas card that John Michael Snyder, public affairs director of the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms, sends this year to a number of recipients.
Named Dean of gun lobbyists by The Washington Post and The New York Times, Snyder includes the president and members of Congress as addressees.

The card wishes recipients a Christmas of peace and joy and a New Year of triumph over terrorism.
The card presents Santa guarding a group of small children from a bomb-harnessed suicide killer. The bomber appears ready to cast a stick of dynamite at an image of the Infant Jesus beneath a decorated Christmas tree.

[Miss Chybil]

3. Oh, so he brings a pistol to a bomb fight?

These guys' brains must shrink a little every day.

4. Talk about overcompensating....

Not only did this dimwit put his little metal phallus on his Christmas card, but then he paid to put out a press release saying that he did so....

5. "B" Movie Script?

This isn't news!

[Uncle Joe]

9. I agree to some extent,

it is only news to those people that still believe the Republican Party actually follows the teachings of the Prince Of Peace. This is just the latest example of their version of militarizing Christmas.

6. Jesus and Moses used guns ....

....to defeat the Romans and Egyptians. Oh, wait, actually that was an episode of Family Guy.

[Lindacooks]

10. Who Would Jesus Shoot?

[MisterP]

12. who would Santa shoot? actually

[PaganPreacher]

27. What would Santa carry?

I figure Santa for an engraved Colt .45 Gold Cup National Match, with snow-white grips.

I heard he hired a couple of elves away from the Colt Custom Shop.

I don't turn the other cheek.

30. With a glowing red dot on the front sight. NT

[PaganPreacher]

32. "Say hello to my little friend. I call him 'Rudolph' "!

I hear that Rudolph is a bad mutha...
...Shut yo' mouth!
But I'm talkin' 'bout Rudolph!
...then we can dig it!



The Pagan Preacher
I don't turn the other cheek.

[Deep13]

15. Pat Robertson for sure.

[darkism]

11. Just when you thought the gun nuts couldn't get any nuttier...

:crazy:

[xchrom]

13. lol -- see i don't want to live around people with guns.

you just never know.

can you imagine GETTING that christmas card? oy.

[Silverhair]

34. You probably do live around people with guns.

It just isn't talked about.

[proud2BlibKansan]

14. oh good grief

[ikri]

18. Not to have a go at the artist

But from that picture it looks like he's offering the use of the gun to the suicide bomber, not protecting children.

[KalicoKitty]

20. That card is very Sacrilegious!

n/t

[PaganPreacher]

28. The baby Jesus is SMILING!

Hey, aren't the children supposed to be all snug in their beds?

I always heard Santa wouldn't shoot the terrorist if the children didn't go to sleep.....

The Pagan Preacher
I don't turn the other cheek.

[HuffleClaw]

19. thats pretty twisted

but it is pretty damn funny too. you'd think a guy like that could at least afford some decent artwork.

[atommom]

21. Shooting a terrorist in front of children is "Peace and Joy?"

I know, I know, he was about to make the baby Jesus cry. Did O'Reilly draw this picture?

[Deep13]

24. Kinda makes you feel all warm and fuzzy, doesn't it?

:eyes:

[atommom]

23. As my 5-y.o. said yesterday,

"Christmas just freaks me out!" He's wise beyond his years.

[SteppingRazor]

25. Bwahahaha! That picture is hilarious!

In an "Oh my God I can't believe they actually did that" sort of way.

[Deep13]

26. Santa's a lefty.

[Blue_Tires]

31. why is a baby jesus under the tree?

because naturally, there was a tree in the manger....lol

[aikoaiko]

33. Cheesy publicity stunt.. Nothing more, nt

[Silverhair]

35. Effective publicity stunt. We're talking about it aren't we?

I've also seen an RW site with a thread on this same thing.

[aikoaiko]

36. Yep, we're talking, but now I am suspicious of this organization...

...and John Michael Snyder of the Citizens Committee for the RKBA.

I don't know if I could trust them with a donation or support.
