One would think such a bizarre proposal would prompt some level of debate, a modicum of sane opposition! After all, we’re talking about mere teenagers eerily striking poses with weapons in their adolescent hands. Alas, the idea was met with a unanimous yes by all members of the Broken Bow school board.

You see the picture Mother Jones used and barely give a glance to the article and if you are the low information reader, your gut will twist. Then again if you are smart,you figure out already that Mother Jones has had an axe to grind against gun owners for a very long time. The New York Daily News, not quite the bastion of Pro-NRA support also covered the news item, but instead they showed the actual pics to be used in the yearbook:
So, whatever happened to “We don’t want to ban all guns. We have no beef with people who hunt, it is only them Gun Nuts with Assault Weapons with High Capacity 600 rounds per second magazine clips that need to be banned.” line?
Oh yes! They are lying. They always do.
Not unexpected.
Lack of trigger discipline in the stock photo and proper gun handling in the school photo. Good for you Broken Bow HS
Yet many if not all at MJ feel these “mere teenagers” are adult enough to deserve abortions without parental consent. Which is it MJ? Are they adults or not?
Even the MJ photo is of a long barrel Beretta 92 with significant modification done for competition shooting with extra length, weight, etc…not exactly a hood gun. (though there’s a hood level of trigger discipline)
The image with the girl with poor trigger discipline and race/target gun is from shutterstock, a stock photo outlet. It’s not even one of the student photos in question.
Went to the Mother Jones article and an AD for History Channels show Vikings was at the bottom. No showing a weapon in your photo but we will sell Ad space to one of the bloodiest shows on tv. Now that is funny!
Typically the controlling Socialists want to insert “hunting’ in their argument when it is really all about being able to honor your God given right to Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness as guaranteed by the US Constitution. Within that God given right is self defense and hunting. Their big objection is both God and the US Constitution.
I tried to read the comments after the MJ article. Until I had all of that crap I could stand.
