"They're Coming": A Paranoid NRA Interpretation of The Orlando Massacre

A little something to disturb your Father's Day celebrations:
In the wake of the massacre at Pulse night club in Orlando, National Rifle Association (NRA) Executive Vice President Wayne LaPierre argued on Sunday that American families should arm themselves because terrorists were “on the verge of overwhelming us.”

LaPierre told CBS host John Dickerson that “we all mourn” for victims of the Orlando shooting, “but we face a terrorist challenge where they are on the verge of overwhelming us.”

  1. A friend from Chicago sent a promotion by a car dealer about 40 miles away where the Father's Day Sale consisted of a free AR-15 with every car sold.

    1. People sometimes make the mistake of thinking that because they look like us and speak the same language, Americans are like us, Mound. This 'special offer' amply demonstrates the gulf that separates us.
