Gun-Toting Santa Featured on Christmas Card

Santa's packin' more than bags of toys:
CNSNews.com) - The latest reason for gun control and gun rights activists to sharpen their rhetoric is a Christmas card released by the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms. The card features an armed Santa Claus attempting to shield three children from a terrorist.

The Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms (CCRKBA) sent the card to members of Congress, President Bush, and others who support gun rights.

The terrorist portrayed on the card is wearing a turban and trying to place a stick of dynamite near the baby Jesus under a Christmas tree. The Santa Claus character is holding a semi-automatic handgun. The caption wishes the recipient "a Christmas of peace and joy and a New Year of triumph over terrorism." But implied is the message that an armed Santa Claus is better able to protect the children than an unarmed Santa.

LOL! Reminds me of the IBC trailer for "The Night the Reindeer Died" from the Bill Murray movie "Scrooged!"

If anyone has a link to what this card looks like, I'd love to see it.

You're in northern Ohio, right? You'd better watch out -- the ACLU is out of control up there.

Don't say I didn't warn you.

That didn't work out too well without formatting.

Try this

BTW...what's so off about Santa protecting children? I mean, the best known story of him as a bishop was how he so desired to save three young girls from having to shame themselves that he dropped gold in their window so that their father would have their dowry.
