Claiming its got "coffin shaped" targets when they clearly are not coffins. They are just abstract targets.

Lying punks.

ok thats some retarded reading right there

Even if the targets were intentionally coffin-shaped, what's that supposed to mean? The inhabitant is already dead!

The comments at the bottom are a good insight into the minds of the anti-2nd people.

This. Some of those comments were amazing. I especially liked the one guy who said "So the NRA is hypocritical. No surprise to me or anyone that has been paying attention. Hypocrisy is part of the foundation of conservatism in general, the other parts being hate, fear and lies." Then he called someone who disagreed with him stupid. OK.

I'm reminded of SA Friday's signature line - "Deny everything, and counteraccuse". I believe that's the mantra of people like those posting those comments; but I don't think they even know it.

If we ever do have some sort of mass civil disaster, these folks will be living the irony of the whole situation. I'd be curious what their opinions were afterward.

So wait, we aren't supposed to use coffins as targets? Oops....

Agreed and all too common. It happens on both sides, though. I've seen too many on this side that are quick to believe ANYTHING negative about the other side as well.

Yeah, that's the best way to kill zombies, pre-emptively.

True. It's easier when you don't have to think about it, and there are folks like that everywhere. People of Walmart come to mind... Oh, wait, that would be "don't have to think"...

Just about the time I think maybe people are starting to get their sanity back, I see something like this...silly dumb shit. "Coffin shaped" they would have lost it all the same it it was a silhouette.
