Cute Guns For Sale For No Good Reason

A Baraboo, WI gun dealer is hawking cutely-painted guns.

Who other than children would be attracted, asks WAVE, the state's anti-gun lobby?

Uh, linking this post to the site is free advertising for this sick puppy.

Maybe take down the link.

The pink Hello Kitty is disturbing, but not for kids.

To Anon:

I think people need to see what's happening. If kids are reading my blog, they should be outside playing instead.

I think the actions by the Milwaukee Mayor and Police Chief is sickening. They choose to hold their press conference at a Children's Hospital? Give me a break. Show me one legit story of juvenile gun violence that involved a painted gun. You can't because there hasn't been one. But Fox news in Milwaukee cites numerous cases of teen gun violence and statistics to pad their story. However, none of their numbers involve the firearms they are talking about. As far as the Hello Kitty long guns, well there's only two that were made by Jim's Gun Supply for customers that specifically requested them. He didn't make them to market children. He made them because an adult, a legal gun owning adult, wanted it done to personalize their property.
Why is he a sick puppy? He has Duracoated (painted) a total of 19 guns in bright colors, 9 of which are owned by him and will never be sold. On the other hand, Remington and Taurus manufacture pink versions of firearms that are sold at Gander Mountain stores and number in the thousands. The media across the nation is picking on a small fish in a big pond. He takes orders from his cell phone from his 2nd job and does all the work by himself. If only you could see his "store front"...
