Here is a good one: Gun control advocates launch campaign to ban gun emoji from iPhones

[rci2950]

“An anti-gun organization in New York on Thursday debuted a social media campaign to convince Apple to remove the ideogram depicting a gun from their iPhones,” Chris Eger reports for Guns.com. “New Yorkers Against Gun Violence kicked off their ‘Disarm the iPhone’ drive this week with a website, video and press release targeting the popular mobile devices. The group cautions that the emoji, one of hundreds on the product that come preloaded from the factory, reflects the ready access to guns in the country. ‘We realized that many Americans unknowingly carry a gun with them every day. The one that was given to them without a background check: the gun emoji,’ reads an open letter to Apple CEO Tim Cook.”
“On the site set up for the Disarm the iPhone initiative, NYAGV goes on to repeat the oft-quote statistic that 40 percent of gun sales in America are made without a background check,” Eger reports. “This stale figure often pops up in rhetoric on gun violence in the country and has been widely debunked [as it is ] based on a 1994 telephone survey of 251 people conducted just as implementation of the FBIs NICS system and requirements for background checks for sales through Federal Firearms License holders was coming into effect.”

Fuck those anti-freedom bigots and their stupid plan to leach off of Apples big name. Fuck Apple too if they cave to such stupidity.

They would even fail at being a cupcake as they couldn’t help but to taste like what they are filled with, shit.

How is it that we used to play with toy guns, realistic looking ones that went bang and through fire when the cap went off and we didn't produce serial killer and mass shooters but now our society tries to prevent all exposure of kids to guns and we are so afraid of serial killers and mass shooters?

Then there is the idea that if we just legalize drugs, drug use will go down because it will not have the glamor of being illegal. Wouldn't the same be expected of exposure to firearms? The more ease of access to firearms the less violence as people will not have to sneak around with them?

Blacksheep, just wanted to point out that John Wayne quotes are always appropriate on a gun site. Well done.
