Trayvon's Amendment

[mwrguy]

This is interesting. They are proposing a 28th amendment to The Constitution.

The 28th Amendment, as drafted, will implement a series of common sense gun laws and implement new revenue streams for Americans.

The 12 provisions below will work to make America a more safe place by eliminating the obviously failed experiment that is the second amendment.

1. The second amendment of the Constitution of the United States, being no longer necessary to a secure state is hereby nullified.

1. Written to feed the fears of gun nutters. No serious persons are promoting such an amendment.

3. The wording of this "Amendment" is so ridiculous that it looks like an NRA false flag operation!

+1,000 to what Scuba said!

4. It's obviously a joke, however I would enjoy watching gun fanciers' pucker.

One of the cool suggestions that should really rile the bigoted gun fancier majority:

"An income tax equal to 4% of an individual’s income will be assessed by all gun owners. In states which were at any point in time a part of the Confederate States of America, this tax shall be equal to 10% of an individual’s income. Taxes levied under this amendment shall be appropriated in equal portions to programs to expand Affirmative Action programs and begin to pay reparations to the descendants of African slaves."

5. Some folks on the RKBA group thought it "serious"!

Some even called the NRA to "verify"!

6. Scary that folks who carry a gun in public could misinterpret something that obvious.

7. Look at the reactions on the gun-humper sites! Hilarious!

shallow end of the gene pool, plus too much inbreeding.
