I like it.

That's pretty much the true story, isn't it?

Thanks for sharing that, BHP FAN!

I know that bold, white text with a black outline is all the rage for memes, and it usually works, but in this case, the typography really sucks.

So do drive by posts......

Im normally not so critical but it seems amature in several ways.

Pretty sure the point Justin was making is that it is painful to read. It does not matter what your message is if people won't/can't read it.

I liked the presentation, but like Jason, hard to read that text. Had to use “Ctrl” “+” to read it.

Well, the opposition's ostensible point of view is compromising between gun rights and safety (the right to life)--the idea is that we ought to give up some portion of our gun rights in exchange for fewer innocent lives lost, not for nothing. These panels only touch upon the idea dismissively, which could be construed as narrow-mindedness or even callousness. Sure, WE know that "gun control" does NOT save lives in practice, and that some prominent anti-gunners have ulterior motives (they must because they should know better by now), but not everybody sitting on the fence on the issue, so to speak, does.

A bit too painful in this case.
I'm sure it's a wonderful message, but I only made it to the second panel before I gave up.

Yup, typography is terrible. Couldn't read it.

I saved it, made it "actual size", and then it was readable.

It could be tweaked a hair, but overall I like it. And I too want my cake back.

The Mods were right. On the horizontal, the letters were too close together and the letters themselves were in "bold", which was unnecessary.

I had no problem with the message itself. They are just like rats in the way they keep "nibbling away" at our rights. It would be bad enough if it were limited to their attacks on the Second Amendment, but they don't stop there!

Look at the way the EPA is restricting economic growth with their attacks on fossil fuels, esp. coal. The OSHA regulations put another regulatory burden on businesses, esp. small ones. The NSA, FBI, DHS all spy on us, assault our sensibilities (airport "gropes"), - - well, you get the point.

That was pretty good! We have a bit more than crumbs, but Bloomberg and Co are definitely looking at them.
