Default JIHAD STRIKES

Video

A friend sent me this. I'm curious to know who'll be offended and who'll find this amusing.

Basically, we have a parody video for a firearms company. Lets see what everyone's opinions are here.

Not offensive at all, and still more offensive than amusing. Thats 2 minutes wasted.

Actually, I am offended by the portrayal of Muslims in this video, but I do agree with the statement that "every responsible citizen is armed."

I can't believe you weren't offended by this portrayal.

If you can't make fun of a culture you're probably positively discriminating against it. Unless you don't make fun of people and silly stereotypes as a general principle.

As a Comedic-American I'm offended by how not funny that was.

So I live in a safe neighborhood, less than a block from the police station, with children in the house, and there's little I own that I'd want to risk my or anyone else's life for. But I am irresponsible because I don't have a gun. Sheeesh. I fully support the right for you to be armed. I also fully support the right to be unarmed.

Edit: Oh and I didn't even mention my 100 lb German Shepherd.

Listen, I stated my opinion. If you want to be unarmed, go right ahead. If you're too stupid to realize you're putting your family at risk, that's an argument worth having. If you're just willing to admit that a dog provides enough safety to make you comfortable, we'll agree to disagree.

I will argue with you if you think you don't "need" a weapon to be safe though.
