Guns are not toys. Making them look like playthings by painting them red or yellow or some other bright, cheery color is a bad idea....there's no good reason to abide deadly weapons painted to look like squirt guns.And damned if you don't:
Effective January 1 of this year, in order for such toys to be compliant with state law, "the coloration of the entire exterior surface of the device [must be] bright orange or bright green, either singly or in combination."No fair, you say? I'm mixing apples and oranges by comparing the banning of painted real guns to the banning of unpainted toy ones?
You don't think the miserable anti-freedom wretches behind each of these efforts aren't doing their utmost to ban both?
Markie Marxist sez: "Color police! Color police! We'll need color police armed with chromatometers to determine the compliance of real guns as well as toy guns! ATF will have to become the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, Explosives, Coloration, Et cetera, and So forth. (BATFECES). We'll be able to raise taxes, pull people out of employment in the private sector and expand the role of government in people's lives!
ReplyDeleteOn the other hand, the general public might find this debate to be about as exciting as watching paint dry."
There is absolutely no reason to abide any person in any official capacity in this country if this is what he thinks is important and this is what he thinks he has the power to regulate.
ReplyDeleteThese deadly weapons against a free people should be covered in stripes of the prison variety. Do it for the children.
"So, Officer, if all my guns are illegal because of their color, then what color guns are legal?"
ReplyDelete"We're not allowed to give legal advice on that, but the colors on all these guns you've got here are illegal, so you're going to jail, and for this one you'll be charged with a felony because it reads in the felony band of the color spectrum."
