Here’s your dose of insanity for the day. Brian Jeffs and
Nathan Nephew have just published a book extoling the virtues of open carry,
and it’s aimed (sorry) at kids.
"Before
writing this, we looked for pro-gun children's books and couldn't find
any," say the authors, who, I can only guess, would be surprised to learn
there aren’t any children’s books about parents carrying chainsaws or flame
throwers, either.
Imagine the
family sitting around the dinner table and Mother turns to her ten-year old
daughter.
“I saw you with
your nose in a book, Emily. What are you reading?”
“Oh, it’s a book
about how cool it is to wear a gun to the mall.”
“A gun? At the
mall?”
“Sure. Can I get
one? Please, please, please? Cindy said her parents are getting her a gun that’s
pink.”
Beyond the crazed
content, the illustration on the cover looks like Ned Flanders’ family on
vacation in Zombieland.
