Armed Santa Claus Protects Baby Jesus from Knife-Wielding Islamist Terrorists (Gun Lobby X-Mas Card)

Nothing says "Merry Christmas" quite like a card portraying an armed Santa Claus holding off a knife-wielding Islamic terrorist who is trying to kill baby Jesus: An armed Santa Claus on an original Christmas card sent to recipients this year by John M. Snyder protects Baby Jesus from a masked, knife-wielding terrorist.

Santa aims a semiautomatic handgun at the terrorist near Baby Jesus in His crib. The contemporary drawing shows Santa Claus using the gun to save the Infant from the throat-cutter. "The Christmas card reflects current reality," Snyder said. "According to numerous news reports, Islamist terrorists behead innocent victims around the world, even here in the United States. These murderers persecute Christians, especially Catholics, who worship Jesus Christ as the Son of God, the Second Person of the Blessed Trinity.

"At Christmas, we commemorate the coming of Jesus Christ as true God and true Man, the Divine Person who assumed our human nature through his mother Mary." Snyder added that, "Santa Claus for many represents the Christmas spirit, the spirit of giving. On this message, Santa uses force of arms to rescue Baby Jesus from a terrorist, to give the Infant protection and freedom from the terrorist. Governments and other entities worthy of respect appreciate the right and ability of individuals to use firearms to protect the innocent." he card wishes recipients "Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays."

Named the "dean of Washington gun lobbyists" by the Washington Post and New York Times, Snyder has been called a "champion of the right to self-defense" by the Washington Times, "the senior rights activist in Washington" by Shotgun News, and the "gun dean" by Human Events.

Don't think the supposedly moderate ones are different in kind than this shitheadery. They are all of a piece.
