This is from The Onion, which (if you don’t know) is a satirical humor site:
Peace Activist Has To Admit Barrett .50 Caliber Sniper Rifle Is Pretty Cool
Despite his staunch opposition to the National Rifle Association and U.S. military operations in Afghanistan, peace activist Paul Robinson conceded Monday that the Barrett .50 caliber sniper rifle is “pretty damn cool.”
…Robinson also noted that anyone with $7,300 can buy the civilian version of the M82A1, a fact he finds “thoroughly repugnant” and “kind of tempting.”
Hilarious, mostly because I’ll bet it’s not that far from the truth in some cases. Go read it if you haven’t seen it before. If you have, go read it again.
