Enough, people. This is just getting silly.
I was at work the other day, and a twitchy fortyish guy in a Polo shirt walked over to me, brandishing an AK-47.
“Can you show me how to work this?”
“First off, watch the muzzle! Is there something wrong with it?”
“No, I just don’t know how to use it. Can you show me?”
At this point, I was tempted to say, “no…for that you need the proper mindset and a great deal of training, neither of which you’re going to get in five minutes.”
Instead, I gave him a quick run-down, making damn sure he didn’t load the thing. It was obvious he had never handled a gun before in his life. I asked him why he’d chosen that particular gun. His response was, “because Obama’s going to take it away.”
That’s not a reason, gang.
