I'm clearly on that list, and have seen that bumper sticker for over twenty years. Yuk-yuk.

No, using a bag of OREOs to denigrate the first AA POTUS on the basis of skin color is not amusing and won't fix this:


Spitting, Stalking, Rape Threats: How Gun Extremists Target Women - Welcome to the dark side of America's war over guns

By Mark Follman - May 15, 2014

...Ever since the Sandy Hook massacre, a small but vocal faction of the gun rights movement has been targeting women who speak up on the issue—whether to propose tighter regulations, educate about the dangers to children, or simply to sell guns with innovative security features. The vicious and often sexually degrading attacks have evolved far beyond online trolling, culminating in severe bullying, harassment, invasion of privacy, and physical aggression. Though vitriol flows from both sides in the gun debate, these menacing tactics have begun to alarm even some entrenched pro-gun conservatives...

Last May in her hometown of Phoenix, she (Jennifer Longdon) helped coordinate a gun buyback program with local police over three weekends. On the first Saturday, a group of men assembled across the street from the church parking lot where Longdon was set up. They shouted about constitutional rights and tyranny, and called people arriving to trade in their guns "sellouts." (The program netted nearly 2,000 firearms with more than $200,000 in reimbursements.)

Some of them approached Longdon. "You know what was wrong with your shooting?" one said. "They didn't aim better." Another man came up, looked Longdon up and down and said, "I know who you are." Then he recited her home address. The harassment continued, and the men showed up throughout the program, a Phoenix police official involved confirmed to me.

After a fundraiser one night during the program, Longdon returned home around 10 p.m., parked her ramp-equipped van and began unloading herself. As she wheeled up to her house, a man stepped out of the shadows. He was dressed in black and had a rifle, "like something out of a commando movie," Longdon told me. He took aim at her and pulled the trigger. Longdon was hit with a stream of water. "Don't you wish you had a gun now, bitch?" he scoffed before taking off.

"It was like a mock execution," Longdon says, recalling the intense surge of adrenaline and how the incident triggered her PTSD from the 2004 attack that nearly killed her and her fiancé. She called the police, but they were unable to track down the perpetrator. By the following Saturday, Longdon was back at her post helping run the buyback...

Other than that, spot on. And yes, I do realize it's satire.

Different kind of intellect in Bansalot it would appear.

Can be boiled down to a cartoon. When someone says "it's simple" what they are really describing is their grasp of the problem.

I will grant you that cartoons are a step above the more frequent "gunz","gun humper", "fuck the NRA" and penis logic - but not by much.

Great last paragraph. Love the penis one the best.
