The president of notorious gun rights group, Open Carry Texas, told his members that he had recently filmed an interview with The Daily Show and swears he didn’t say anything too crazy. This ought to be good.

If you’ve ever watched a brutal Daily Show segment and marveled that the subject of the interview ever agreed to go on the show and look so stupid, you aren’t alone. After all, the show is known for its “keep them talking and let them slowly hang themselves” interview style that has led to more than one person losing his or her job after it airs. In fact, just last month the show “ambushed” a group of Washington Redskins apologists by confronting them with real native Americans; an interview so painfully awkward that several of the interviewees have since threatened a lawsuit — essentially, for making them look really, really dumb.

Given that pedigree, it would be understandable if people would be reluctant to agree to sit under the glare of Jon Stewart’s cameras. And yet, like the old P.T. Barnum saying suggests, a sucker is born every minute and apparently all of them want to appear on The Daily Show.
