Once again, a politician illustrates that he is a stupid moron. Sorry, I don't like to call names, but still, Sen. Nicholas Scutari is a stupid moron. Well, more likely he just hates guns and freedom, so he's working hard to destroy them, but in doing so he looks like a stupid moron.

This is yet another stupid Senator that's trying to do something to demonize guns. This time he's trying to ban the sale of toy guns to minors. Yes, adults should be able to buy toy guns because they will be responsible with the molded plastic -- but children, with their billions of dollars of disposable cash, should not be permitted to have plastic things because they might, well, he's not really clear what the kids would do with a plastic toy gun, but whatever it is, Sen. Nicholas Scutari doesn't want them to be doing that.

The bill is quite incomplete. You see, if Sen. Nicholas Scutari wants to stop kids from using toy guns, he's going to have to do more. He's going to have to ban adults giving toy guns to children. You see what Sen. Nicholas Scutari apparently doesn't know is that the vast majority of toys that children have are obtained as GIFTS from parents and others who work for a living (unlike Mr. Scutari). Perhaps he can license kids who want plastic guns, but only if they pass a test.

But even if the bill stops adults from buying those evil pieces of molded plastic, that's not going to be enough. I've often driven home from work and seen children using sticks as toy guns. This bill, if it's really going to stop kids from playing with toy guns, is going to have to ban sticks that are shaped like guns. Perhaps Mr. Scutari can arrange a new government department that can spend their time checking all sticks that fall on the ground for "gun-shapes." Then they can take the "gun-shaped" sticks and put them in a chipper before the children can get their hands on them.

Oh, but that's not quite enough yet. You see the other day I was in a mall and I saw two kids pointing their index fingers at one another and making shooting sounds. If Mr. Scutari wants to really make this bill effective -- if he REALLY wants to stop kids from playing with guns, as is his clear intent -- then we need to start removing children's index fingers and thumbs. I wonder if Mr. Scutari will support a new government program to surgically remove all children's thumbs and index fingers at birth to absolutely ensure that they don't "play with guns."

Sen. Nicholas Scutari is a stupid moron. Only a moron would suggest that "banning" a toy would have any effect on anyone.

1 Oh fercryinoutloud. This is going TOO far. What? Are we going to actually have to have a government oversight group to make sure this is done? Kiddie patrol cops? For toys? Damn. Guess this means we have to ban rocks. And rubber bands. And twigs. And all the other natural things that kids play with and make toy weapons out of. (rolling my eyes)

2 We either have to ban kids or ban stupid moron politicians...

3 I'll go with the latter. Of course, that would leave about 5.

5 Wasn't there a story a while back about a kid who got suspended for pointing a chicken nugget at another kid & saying "bang!"?

6 Well, EVERYONE knows how dangerous pointy chicken nuggets are!
