I don't see anything wrong with the photo. Everyone is practising proper trigger and muzzle discipline.

Why the heck would you pose with guns anyway? :doh: Apart from the whole gun debate, let's for the moment say guns are your hobby and you love guns. I love games, movies and music, but you don't see me posing with any of those on a Christmas picture. And quite frankly, I never see anyone doing any of that. Posing with a football (soccer for Americans) for the football team Christmas card, sure. Posing with guns for the shooting range Christmas card, sure. Posing with footballs or guns for your Christmas family picture, just why? And then they say vegetarians are in your face about their diet. Hah, we could learn a thing or two from gun owners :laugh:

I didn't miss the point at all. I'm simply ignoring the woke bullsh*t we get from across the pond and from twanker users all the time. This is a first amendment issue (which still matters here), which is generally intended to protect speech, and more specifically, *unpopular* speech.

Likewise, I don't make xmas pics of me with my car (or my guns). However, I'm not gonna criticize anyone else for doing that. It is, after all, theoretically a free country. Maybe not in practice, but theoretically.

Even ignoring the crass timing, I fail to see the connection between Christmas and assault rifles ... maybe it's an "'Murican Thang".

If y'all understood, we may would still be British subjects.

I’ve given up trying to be calm. However, I am open to feeling slightly less agitated.

I thought the freedom includes the freedom to criticize. Or pointing out the bad taste of someone who makes Christmas cards with guns. You know, this was supposed to be celebrating the birthday of someone who had little to do with guns and violence.

Ummm... without taking one side or the other in regards to the silly Christmas card... dozens of people are killed with guns in Chicago every single week - sometimes it's dozens killed in a single weekend. Somehow our illustrious media mostly ignores these killings. It obviously doesn't support their narrative.

Especially a country's representative could just make a nice neutral Christmas picture, no? It's holiday, not hobby-day, after all ;) Anyway, you're right in that people should just do it if they want to (and face the consequences), but as a Dutchman I'm still entitled to my opinion on an American gun-holiday-picture on a Canadian programming website.

The First Amendment to the US Constitution allows almost complete Freedom of Speech - including the right to make a public fool of oneself. (I'm not going to discuss the Second Amendment - it's too close to both politics and religion)

Are we to require ritual abasement and apologies for each of those, too?

Unless, you know, people wouldn't fight :doh: Our forefathers did a lot of fighting and as a result I never had to fight in my life. I was born into peace and still know it today, same for my parents. Their parents lived during WWII, but of the four, only one is still alive. So tell me, who are you fighting that you need all those guns?
