How often do you see a headline like that? Usually, there’s a lot of anger when we talk about guns — which is kind of worrisome, if guns happen to be present during the discussion.
We were talking guns back on this post (fortunately, we were all out of range of each other) and it reminded me…
Well, I actually saw something very funny on Saturday Night Live the other night — something I haven’t been able to say since Tina Fey first did Sarah Palin. It was during the weekend update. Seth Myers imagine how the Framers would react if they could see what guns can do right now. He acted out how dangerous guns were then by comparison: “Hold on, you can’t say that about my wife! Hold on… I… am… gonna… show… you…” as he goes through the motions of picking up a flintlock musket, pouring in the powder, ramming it, priming it, and then looks up and says, “AWWW, he drove off!” In case the above embed doesn’t work for you, You can watch it here.
See? Kinda funny. And it makes an interesting point, as well. Several, actually.
I think maybe SNL has some new writers. Or maybe some old ones, back.

No… it looks like they still have the same lame writers they’ve had for the past two decades.
