Once in a while, the world is exposed to greatness of another kind of level. For some people, it was Jesus. For others, Ghandi, or maybe George W. Bush (hey, I'm not judging!). For me, it's Ted Nugent. Ted Nugent represents all that is pure in our world. He represents a simpler time, when people could shoot other people whenever they damn well pleased, and the quantity of guns you owned was directly relatable to the length of your glorious gun-toting penis.
What has Ted been up to lately? I'll tell you. He's been helping to make the world a better place. Bay sent me the link to this article, summarized below:
Rocker Ted Nugent spurs on NRA members in Texas, in spite of the fact that no one remembers who he is
Seriously, does anyone know who this guy is?
HOUSTON (AP) - With an assault weapon in each hand, rocker and gun rights advocate Ted Nugent urged National Rifle Association members to be "hardcore, radical extremists demanding the right to self-defence."
As though the only way to defend ourselves is using assault rifles and ICBMs..
Speaking at the NRA's annual convention Saturday, Nugent said each NRA member should try to enroll 10 new members over the next year and associate only with other members.
"Let's next year sit here and say, 'Holy smokes, the NRA has 40 million members now,' " he said. "No one is allowed at our barbecues unless they are an NRA member. Do that in your life. Also, go and shoot a bunch of goats for fun!"
Wow, imagine how many people would be upset that they couldn't go to the barbecue being held by the neighbourhood gun-rights advocate. Imagine how much fun you could have talking about how you almost shot the last illegal immigrant that didn't get your order right at McDonalds, whilst listening to the rockin' tunes of TED NUGENT (imagine me playing a radical air guitar as you read that).
Nugent sang and played a guitar painted with red and white stripes for the crowd at Houston's downtown convention centre.
He drew the most cheers when he told gun owners they should never give up their right to bear arms and should use their guns to protect themselves if needed. He then went and took a shit on the American flag and shouted "Let's show America that context has no meaning when reading things like the constitution and the bible!"
Yes YES!!!
"Remember the Alamo! Shoot 'em!" he screamed to applause. "Do what Davey Crocket would do and go wrestle some fucking bears!"
Oh God Yes! The powerful image of Davey Crocket and shooting people is almost too much for me to contain!
"To show you how radical I am, I want carjackers dead. I want rapists dead. I want burglars dead. I want child molesters dead. I want the bad guys dead. No court case. No parole. No early release. I want 'em dead! Get a gun and when they attack you, shoot 'em! Then go shoot some more goats!"
Sooo... no court case. If I deem The Nuge to be guilty of some kind of crime (like let's say he walks out of a store and forgets to pay for something - or better yet, I deem that his music is a crime on humanity), I can merrily pump led into his cash and prizes? Sounds good to me.
See you all at the gun shop.
