    Ironically, I can more easily see the kid in the second panel holding a rifle. He grew up to be this:

    Mark and Patricia McCloskey touting guns

      For whatever reason I can’t stop seeing her as James Bond from an alternate universe where he’s actually a crackhead woman where guys never want to sleep with her but she tries anyway. She takes her martini shaken and stirred on the crack rocks.

      Also, horrendous trigger discipline and I don’t even use guns lol

        It’s actually really good trigger discipline, if you’re trying to kill someone. Which, let’s be honest, she probably hoped she could.

    This is Mad Magazine. In the 1990s.

    It’s from one of their longest running segments, “The Lighter Side of”

    They love to pretend they are persecuted. Usually to justify their own shit

    The only bad thing in the comic are the weapons really which in my experience at least the fundamentalist seem to love.

      Strangely the cop isn’t armed. How’s he going to shoot anyone’s dog?

    Somehow free birth control and sexual orientation counseling are supposed to be bad?

    I can believe a book of this size could be dangerous. What an absolute unit of a Bible, that thing is half the height of that teenager.

    They were correct. In the future a nose ring is still likely to be confused with a booger.

    They got the guns right, I guess. But hey, Jesus apparently likes those… isn’t that what the so-called god-fearing christians are preaching these days?
