Will Someone Shoot Us in the F*cking Head With This Thing

Posted by Nicole Pasulka

Really? Why? Why do this to a perfectly good assault rifle? What the shit does this accomplish? Is it a toy? Is it a deadly weapon? We don't fucking know. All we know is that it's totally obscene and it's forced us to reevaluate our basic assumption that the world is pretty much good and although some bad things happen, in the end people want to do the right thing. Yeah, we don't believe that anymore. Now we believe in animal sacrifice and some god named Mofungu who promises to rid the Earth of infomercials and patchouli if we pray to him. Our wholesome, optimistic, secular life is over all thanks to the Hello Kitty assault rifle and this photo after the jump...

Welcome to our nightmares. Make yourselves at home.

The HKAR is nothing compared to "The Motha T" (as in Mother Theresa) shoulder fired rocket launcher.  Co-branding even God would be proud of.

anything that is purportedly selling firearms withoput oodles of legal shite is, of course, not really able to sell you anything.

however, i do have to add, there were some gold-plated kalishnikovs circulating..... way better than hello kitty.
