Million Moon March Gallery VI

Welcome to our sixth gallery of posts for the Million Moon March. Let's jump right in and see who's recently joined the Million Faces campaign to demand global small arms controls...

When "Bill" talks about "atrocities," he's not clowning around...



Everyone's favorite Mad Hatter notes one Control Arms supporter who's a real Il Duce-bag.



Fodder brings us three new Predators on Parade:

A study in Teflon® (and a Dapper Don)...



...a guy who says guns drive him Bugsy (Siegel, that is)...



...and what would a hit website be without a hitman? Bully for you, Sammy Gravano!



I almost missed George here. He wants to make sure no one at the cafeteria will hurt him with a nasty gun. Rest assured, George--your friends at Control Arms are doing their best to keep you safe from armed violence.



Idi? Idi Amin Dada? Is that you? Don't worry, once we get tough on arms, there will be no one to stop you from being President for Life...



Meanwhile, back in the Ottoman Empire, Blognomicon has found our old friend Mehmed II, who wants to make sure his invading hordes don't get hurt by any inconvenient resistance on the part of the locals. Vlad--put down that stake--you could put somebody's heart out with that thing! (Did I mention my heritage is Transylvanian? Really, no joke.)



So far, we've managed to get enough support to make this a weekly feature at War on Guns. I'll keep posting Million Facers as long as you gentle visitors keep submitting them. And if you are new to this, by all means, tour the other galleries listed below and see all the fun we've been having. Why not join us?

The Founders Were Clear

That anyone could base such an assertion on his own interpretation and not on the writings of the people who conceived and wrote the Second Amendment is beyond astonishing--and sounds like an artifice of falsity.

Dennis Hannick fires back at a fictional interpretation of the Second Amendment.

It looks like the paper appreciated the holes he shot in the collective rights argument, as well.

D For Discourage

Time and Newsweek have both published reviews written to dissuade their readers from wanting to see the upcoming 'V for Vendetta'.

Why do you suppose they would do that?

US Gun Ownership "License to Kill"

There are angry web sites on the Internet with headlines like "Gun Control - Hypocrisy or Stupidity?" and which talk of a "war" against gun control advocates. The argument then shifts to the rather more sophisticated political point that a well-armed citizenry is a final bulwark against military dictatorship or invasion. This is illustrated by the thought that if more Europeans had had firearms in the 1930s, the Nazis would have been stopped in their tracks.

Unfortunately, the argument underestimates Nazi ruthlessness, and it is hard to imagine an armed citizenry in, for instance, Holland, Poland or the Ukraine, repulsing the Wehrmacht, backed up as it was by the SS and the Luftwaffe. Snipers don't defeat a modern army and didn't prevent Nelson winning at Trafalgar.

Another Brit expatriate who expects our country to adopt his miserable customs, oblivious that American guns are the only reason he doesn't tell people "Ich bin ein Englander."

He evidently never heard of the Warsaw ghetto uprising, and can't extrapolate the effects on an invading army had such resistance manifested itself a hundred thousand times over, over every inch of ground. And as for Nelson at Trafalgar, that's a clumsy transition to a century before, but the sharphooter did get his man.

Yes, Mr. Garlinski, we do "believe in a literal reading of the American Constitution,... feel that the judiciary has become too liberal and...tend to regard the outside world, especially the United Nations Organisation, with a high degree of hostility."

As for a "war against gun control advocates," we're not the ones sending government thugs to raid, terrorize and destroy them.

And as for a "license to kill," I suggest you get your own house in order:

GOVERNMENT lawyers have told police chiefs preparing to “shoot to kill” suspected suicide bombers that they are likely to escape criminal charges even if they kill an unarmed or innocent person.

There's an easy solution if you don't like our customs here, Mr. Garlinski. Go the hell home.
