Bin
Laden adds support to lifting of assault weapons ban
Somewhere-istan -- Osama Bin Laden released a statement in support
of the lifting of the assault weapons ban in the US.
"Acquiring assault weapons on the black market is such a
hassle. We spend a lot of extra money and time getting guns and
ammo illegally. The worst part is that you never get a warranty.
What happens if your AR-15 jams right in the middle of the floor
of the New York Stock Exchange? Now you can go down the street
and exchange it for a new one. I love America! Just kidding. You
can all die."
Many other celebrities have surprisingly come out in favor of
lifting the ban. Oprah Winfrey has recently jumped on the bandwagon.
In a show that was taped last week, she invited victims of violent
crime to be members of the studio audience. Much to everyone's
surprise at the end of the show, everyone was given a fully automatic
Kalishnikov assault rifle with a years supply of free ammo compliments
of Big 5 Sporting Goods.
"I just wanted to do something nice for these people. They
have suffered so much at the hands of violent criminals. It's
a feeling of powerlessness that seems to go away when you are
draining a 12 inch banana clip full of hollow point bullets with
your AK."
The person looking forward to the lifting of the ban the most
could be Charlton Heston, the current President of the National
Rifle Association.
"I think it is important that every man, woman and child
learn how to operate a firearm safely. Some people think the NRA
is just a bunch of militaristic lunatics, but I am hoping to change
that image. When the apes come and enslave your family, we'll
see who's crazy."
