Hugging Children is SUCH A CRIME

Forbes.com has written an article saying that Obama "using children’s pleas to end violence is about the most grotesque rhetorical tool available to politicians." Now, I do not agree with the word choice, but I definitely agree that using children to get your way is a pretty cheap shot. They might as well have said "Do you wanna pass more gun laws? No? Here's a Kitten!"
works EVERY TIME. Those for not passing the gun laws could show bright-eyes, dimpled children squeaking out their stories about how "if it wasn't for that man getting a gun illegally, he wouldn't have been able to save my life."

How could you say no to those adorable culturally-diverse faces?



While I'm at it, I might as well say my thoughts on the whole more-or-less-gun-laws issue.
The people who are going to use guns to murder people won't just stop because it's against the law. if someone really wants to kill people, they will do whatever it takes to get the gun and use it. I don't think adding more laws is going to prevent that much more from happening.
