I like Guns!

One of my bro-in-laws sent me a link to this YouTube music video, and I thought it was good enough to share here - which is pretty notable, because it doesn't happen very often. Thanks, Bill!

He likes guns, and he wants 'em all. I know where he's coming from. As Dad always said: If it shoots, I like it!

A few sample lyrics:

"I don't really get all the fuss, why they're tryin' to take the guns off of us. 'Cause I ain't gonna shoot anyone - and no one shoots at me, 'cause I got a gun."

Enjoy.

Check out the I like Guns! video.
