Blaming Ralphie and the Red Rider BB Gun

[Autolite]

I think there's a deeper reason

for Mr Barberio's decision. I'm thinkin' that perhaps this liberal is a closet gun lover who was denied his Red Ryder BB gun on Christmas. The scars left by the "BB Gun Denial Syndrome" run deep and can warp a persons sensibilities for life ...

Don't you all understand? Although not as powerful as the mind rays emitted by other guns (and far below the power of the dreaded 'assault weapon' *Imperial march from Star Wars plays*), BB guns still have enough output to affect the undeveloped mind of youngsters. This brave man is simply taking a much needed stand against the control that Red Rider BB guns have exercised over children for generations! Those weapons of mass destruction are nothing more than a gate way drug to the gun culture and *gasp* CCW!

WON'T SOMEBODY PLEASE THINK OF THE CHILDREN?! *collapses sobbing*

I find it interesting they won't put on this play, but will put on Huckelberry Finn. I wonder how many F-bombs will be dropped in that one. There were a lot in the book, but I'm guessing it has been sanitized for public consumption. This is precisely why every "artsy" person I'm forced to deal with annoys the crap out of me. They do too much feeling and not enough thinking.

I say march down there and give this idiot a case of soap-poisoning.

Big_R: uhhh, what? Nobody said "F*ck" in Huck Finn. Do you mean N-bombs?

 

[S_O_Laban]

Wingnutx, LOL I'd say that Mr. Barberio is already suffering from soap poisioning. He appears to be "blind as a bat"

A Little House Christmas.

While they may not be a central theme i believe firearms have played a heafty role in the lives of every character ever to grace the pages of all things "little house". I suppose that hadnt even occured to this rocket scientist though.
