Oolite Bulletins

Santa's a dead man.

I like the way they list the weapons at the top. That's classic. Lot of handguns however, good at close range and that shotgun again close range. I find their home defense system lacking a little something in the "lead volume down range" and "accuracy at distance" department. Also why are you giving gran the EXP-556? I know it's light but the clip on that thing is ridiculous!

Also, lacking on the body armor front. This is a very attack heavy family combat formation. These are issues that should be addressed here......

C+ could do better, if I don't see at least one ballistic shield with Christmas lights and tinsel on it next year; I'm going to be slightly disappointed.

Random Hits family.

This is what you get in a country where everyone carries a weapon around for so called more security.

Well, in at least one state a Christmas card like this is illegal

It is a felony under Florida law to create, maintain or publish any list, record or registry of legally owned firearms or law-abiding firearm owners.

I'll just add, in case you guys didn't bother following the link, that Michele Fiore is an MP and this Christmas card was her way of telling the voters of Nevada where she stands on gun control and their 2nd amendment rights.

Not "Everyone" carries a weapon here in the states. If that were so... the massacre would not have happened.

yep thats been all over the facebook thingy....

That would only be the case if gunmen were not able to buy guns in the first place.
Are you really suggesting that replacing the massacre with a shoot-out between a psychopathic lunatic and armed vigilantes is a better option?

Disappointed you felt a need to remove most of your post, Yah-Ta-Hey. Also, leaving the fighting words but removing the story of how you came to think the way you do seems unhelpful.

I don't use facebook, but I expect it has. Framed in what way? As gun-control "debate", or abuse of Christmas cards?

I think US gun culture is so distant from the rest of the world there's no point RoWians offering Americans gratuitous advice about that. They'll have to find their own way back.

But I object to politicians and gun shop owners appropriating Christmas to push their barrows.

Sorry was a bit of a generalization by me.

absolutely but your term armed vigantes is a bit over dramatic... people who have concealed licenses don't necessarily bring it to the attention of others.
No, they would have used machetes , knives, samurai swords, toothpicks instead of the guns.

The CDC for 2013 showed that deaths by vehicles outnumbered deaths by guns... so lets run everybody down and then cry in our beer about not making vehicles illegal.

I removed the "fighting words" as a respect to those politically correct, liberal leftwings who would have us run around like chickens in a hen house that has been invaded by the fox.

Those foxes must be the reason for all of America's gun-toting dogs :

In the past five years, at least six Americans have been shot by dogs

Read your article more closely... the dogs were not :gun toting:. The owners were pure jerks for not having their safeties on, having loaded guns in the cabin or in the back of the vehicle. One dog was in self defense mode don't blame him at all. but over all .... a cute far left story

That's just what the dog-dominated MSM wants you to believe ...
