If the parents are black and open carry the child needs a guide to grieving.

I can see why Dad there has a gun. There appears to be no bulge of any kind in his pants. QED: compensating. Idris Elba he most certainly is not.

I saw on Twitter somewhere that there was a "sequel" already. It's the same cover but titled "I Used to Have a Brother".

Kind of said it all, I felt.

My parents are all pants-wetting scared of the world and all the different people in it! Let's be friends!

yes blue-eyed-white-folk ... but clones! (seriously, just photoshop copy and paste the mugs on these pasty folk, then activate the mustache-tool) anyway, you know one of them will die while the other is 'cleaning' their many guns or the dog jumps up and releases the safety; so it's all good.

The Amazon reviews are pretty good reading

That cover kinda makes me want to shoot the illustrator. The Chuckie faces on those people scare me.

Oh thank God. When I first heard of this title I pictured it looking creepy. Dodged a bullet there.

I love how they managed to combine masterful book design with everyone seeming so calm and at ease, none of that stiff, cult-like intensity and crazy eyed stares you'd have thought a kids gun book might have.

Waiting for Ted Nugent to narrate the audiobook version.

This is more progressive than you're giving it credit for--clearly the girl on the cover has two lesbian parents.

Whoever illustrated this piece want the viewers to think that these are everyday Americans, packing heat and "it's all good" Bullshit. It isn't all good. Daughter doesn't have a piece, what's with that? What if some crazy Democrat teenager wants to fondle her breasts? Oh, I forgot, Daddy will shoot his brains out. Open carry is for paranoid assholes.

... Which is why my children will never go to your house. You paranoid fucking freaks.

Jesus Christ, the open-carry community are a bunch of fucking idiots. Insecure bullies and nothing more.

Don't get me wrong, I enjoy guns a great deal. I have one on me most times. But the last thing I want to do is intimidate anyone, even unintentionally, in my day-to-day life. I'm capable of reasoning/communicating effectively and have the maturity of a goddam adult who can accept being wrong or even insulted from time to time. I can even throw a punch or two if I need to get out of a jam.

Can there just be a children's book about guns and gun safety that doesn't have a political agenda behind it?

FUCK!

I really hate open-carry dorks.

@13, One could certainly be made in earnest, but there is no way that an agenda wouldn't be sizzled onto its skin from the get-go, from the loudest and dumbest fringes of both extremes.

Remember kids, there is no such thing as a happy medium, and there never has been!

45 states allow open carry. 30 states allow open carry without a license. Learn more about open carry at OpenCarry.org. And carry on!
