FOP blasts 'ballistic fingerprinting'


If 'ballistic fingerprinting,' which is lauded by the gun control lobby, is so great, why does the Grand Lodge of the Fraternal Order of Police claim it's a pipe dream, and a waste of law enforcement resources?

Does Sarah Brady know more about catching criminals than the largest collection of law enforcement officers in the nation, or is she spreading lies to further her agenda?

"For years police have called for the creation of such a database." -- Sarah Brady, claiming that police support ballistic fingerprinting.

"The FOP does not support any federal requirement to register privately owned firearms with the federal government..." -- FOP, in a report claiming funds are best spent elsewhere.

Do you think facts and logic are going to stop the anti-gun brigade? It's never stopped them before.

A friend of my mother-in-laws is convinced that man never landed on the moon and that the earth is flat. She makes more sense than the Brady group.

Maybe it's just my bias talking, but I'd also like to note that the cartoon lacks imagination and isn't very funny, even though it appears to have taken a good deal of work. It relies on hyperbolic visuals to cover for the lack of an underlying good joke.

It might make up for itself if the cartoon was at least original, but I've seen other cartoons with Heston and/or the NRA blamed for the sniper killings. The stupidity of the position taken and its inflammatory nature aside, this cartoon is still terrible.
