Oh, Joy!
A day when we Amerkins can celebrate our freedom!
A day when we can commemorate what made our country grate!
A day when we remember what an enormous bunch of douchebags the leaders of the NRA are!
Happy National Gun Appreciation Day, everyone!
And as a reminder of exactly what we're celebrating ...
But wait! There's more ... !
Please let us all know how YOU celebrated!
... Or, on this Inauguration Day Weekend, were you instead marking The National Day Of Service?
Ah, who needs to ruin a wonderful day like this with that kind of socialist bullshit?
President Reagan -- a REPUBLICAN -- made Martin Luther King Day a federal holiday and also supported both The Brady Bill and the assault weapons ban.
President Clinton -- a DEMOCRAT -- started The National Day Of Service to honor Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and also signed into law The Federal Assault Weapons Ban.
Maybe that's what we really need to be thinking about this weekend ...
Or not ...

MARIETTA - A Parkersburg man was accidentally shot in the ankle Sunday at a gun show at the Comfort Inn in Marietta, according to the Marietta Police Department.
William Shawver, 46, of 418 Avery St., Parkersburg, was taken to Marietta Memorial Hospital to receive treatment for a gunshot wound to his right ankle, police said.
The incident is under investigation and is being regarded as an accident, said Capt. Jeff Waite.
"It definitely was not done in malice. The two men are very good friends," said Waite.
Though the department has not released the name of the gun owner, Waite said the man was in the process of trading his gun, a 1911-style automatic handgun, with another individual at the gun show.
"He went to remove the gun from its holster and unload the ammunition I believe and the gun somehow misfired," said Waite.

President Obama believes that service should be a lifelong commitment—whether it's at the school, community, city, state, or national level. That's why the first family serves on a regular basis, and it's why they're continuing the tradition they started four years ago with a National Day of Service on January 19th, 2013. To honor the life and legacy of Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., the first family is asking Americans to find an event and serve with others in their community.
“Everybody can be great ... because anybody can serve. You don't have to have a college degree to serve. You don't have to make your subject and verb agree to serve. You only need a heart full of grace, a soul generated by love.”
— Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
