Gun Rights explained to CNN anchor

This video is chock full of awesomeness. I've seen it before but it still got a good belly laugh out of me when I saw it again. Do yourself a favor and give it a quick once over.

Now my take on the salient points:

00:00: Both Ms. Costello and Mr. Muller are wrong in calling his giveaway an "AK-47". The AK-47, or Kalashnikov 1947 is a FULLY AUTOMATIC intermediate caliber weapon. What he is giving away with this promotion is an AK-47 clone, which is, for all intents and purposes the same as the assault rifle, only it's semi-automatic. Just like yo' daddy's deer rifle.

01:15: The wife and her husband who were murdered execution style (Byrd and Melanie Billings)in front of their 12 children happened exactly 11 miles from my front door. There have been 3 shootings in my neighborhood in the last 3 days. I don't know about you but every time I've ever called the cops I've had to wait more than 5 minutes for the cavalry to arrive. Armed home invasion is nothing to make fun of being worried about.

01:30: Ms. Costello notes that police officers are "shot in the line of duty all the time". Ms. CNN News anchor please answer me this; when was the last time a law abiding citizen who has filled out an ATF form 4473, been background checked by the FBI and, by the way, just purchased a new vehicle from a dealership in rural Missouri gone postal and shot a police officer? Go check your records, I'll wait...

02:30: Also to Ms. CNN. So you grew up in rural America and had guns in your home, but they weren't (evil) AK-47's. Really? What were they? I'm willing to bet you had ol' Grandpappy's lever action 30-30 cowboy rifle behind the door like nearly every rural household has done in the last 150 years. Guess what; other than looking mean and dangerous there are no differences between your "old hunting gun" and what Mr. car dealer is peddling. Zip, Nada, Zero. Both shoot a .30 caliber bullet, both have the same bullet weight and velocity, and yes, both only go bang once every time you pull the trigger.

Note to CNN, Ms. Costello, Sarah Brady, Diane Feinstein, Carolyn McCarthy, and Chuckles Schumer; Making a gun look ugly or scaaawwy or like the much maligned "assault weapon" does not increase it's lethality. It is only the loose nut behind the trigger what makes a simple tool a weapon.

03:10: What in the Hell is a "semi assault weapon"? Did you just pull that out of your keister? What, pray tell does make up said quasi weapon of almost-doom which may or may not shoot through schools? Does it only assault random people at odd intervals? Sheesh.

03:30: "Because we sell cars". Ok, insert belly laugh from me here. That's damn funny.

03:46: "You don't have a problem with God, do you?"

04:30: "You don't think God wants us to defend ourselves?"

4:45: Costello "What would Jesus do, would he carry a gun?" Muller "No, they didn't have guns back then." (OK, I'm busting a gut here, boss)

The bottom line: Just doing a quick and dirty Google check shows that the violent crime rate in New Yawk New Yawk is roughly 3 TIMES that of Bates, MO; and that with NYC having some of the strictest gun control laws in the nation. HMMM. Maybe Ms. Costello would be better off just interviewing Mayor Bloomberg next time.

Maybe CNN should stick to their bailiwick of pop culture, human interest stories of the pore' an' starvin', and general conservative value hatin'. Oh, never mind, they are.
