In case any readers are getting married....

Here's the topper for the wedding cake...

Comments

It's so tacky. Plus, you have to pay extra for the woman to have a gun. The man gets one for free. Sexism at play, I say.

For any of your readers who are getting married, I strongly suggest these custom toppers which charge the same for guns to be molded whether they are held by men or women. Not to mention, they aren't tacky with deformed heads. :)

Or, you could just get the baker to make the grooms cake in the shape of a target and serve it at the celebratory shooting match the day after the wedding.

Sure puts a new twist on the expression "shotgun wedding"...

NEWS FLASH!

Back to the Future with the McCarthy Era: Are you now or have you ever been a member of the NRA?

Gun-Control Activist Accused of Being NRA Spy

By Debra Cassens Weiss

AMERICAN BAR ASSOCIATION JOURNAL

www.abajournal.com/news/gun_control_activist_accused_of_being_nra_spy/

A gun control activist on the boards of two gun control groups was a spy for the National Rifle Association, according to deposition testimony.

The two groups are expelling the activist, Mary Lou McFate, and are checking their offices for bugs, report the Associated Press and the Philadelphia Inquirer. Mother Jones broke the story, reporting that McFate infiltrated gun control groups and received payment from private security firms and the NRA.

The AP story describes McFate as a former flight attendant and sex counselor who also infiltrated an animal rights group in the 1980s at the request of a medical supply business.

More recently she served on the boards of CeaseFirePA and States United to Prevent Gun Violence, but was unable to get a board position with the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence.

The spying allegations surfaced in a lawsuit filed against a now-defunct security firm called Beckett Brown International. The firm’s former president said in a deposition that McFate, who was also known by her married name of Mary Lou Sapone, was hired to conduct NRA intelligence.

Loyola law professor Laurie Levenson said corporate spying could constitute trespassing in some circumstances. But anyone accused of infiltrating open meetings may be engaging in conduct that is "underhanded and sneaky” but not illegal, she told AP.

The only thing wierd about that is ducks don't perch on things.
That story above this about that poor lady being a spy how did she stand it making nice with those tree huggers and gerbil stuffers? I mean, I hope she was compensated adaquately for risk and stress to her health and well being by spending so much time around all those diseased losers?

Wood ducks and black-bellied whistling-ducks do.

Old-world Comb Ducks perch on tree trunks like monster woodpeckers.

Perhaps they're just less sedentary than your typical mallard.
