An anti-gun guy brings his pooping chicken to an open carry rally at a farmer’s market to express his belief that guns are more dangerous than chickens. He gets ejected, but still doesn’t get it…
Ignoring the public health issues of having a defecating and urinating chicken in a place that sells food, the last time we checked, evil is not deterred by a good guy with a chicken. If that were the case, we would call 9-1-1 and ask men with chickens to respond then someone breaks into our homes or otherwise is victimizing us.
While it makes us laugh to consider the thought of men with chickens responding in squad cars with lights and sirens to a call, it is only because that thought is as ludicrous as Mark Scheffler’s contention that guns in public are inherently unsafe.
Unless, of course, you are a bad person with evil in your heart… in which case good guys with guns are inherently unsafe – to you.
APPLETON, Wis. (USA Today) — When Mark Scheffler was asked to leave a gun protest, along with his brown hen named Winchester, on Saturday, it was precisely the point he wanted to make at the popular gathering.
Chickens are far safer than firearms and laws allowing for open carry need to change, said Scheffler of Appleton.
“Carrying a loaded assault weapon in downtown Appleton, the fine is zero dollars,” he said. “The fine for carrying a loaded chicken — and she is loaded — is $263.50.”
Throwing a live chicken in a robbers face would give you ample time to draw your weapon and defend yourself while he is distracted by the flapping wings.
Poster child for tougher background checks for chicken owners.
