Baby Issued Illinois Gun ID Card

CHICAGO, May. 15, 2007

(AP) Bubba Ludwig can't walk, talk or open the refrigerator door _ but he does have his very own Illinois gun permit.

The 10-month-old, whose given name is Howard David Ludwig, was issued a firearm owner's identification card after his father, Howard Ludwig, paid the $5 fee and filled out the application, not expecting to actually get one. [more]

what's even more supprising to me is that the baby's grandfather bought him a shotgun as a gift

You know you are a rednick when your 15 month old son has his very own shotgun

Yes, that is extremely absurd! I can't believe that!

Oh and...
I recently found out that a boy was arrested for trying to sell guns at his local middle/elementary(?) school in Blacksburg. The same day as the Virginia Tech shootings...

Kind of ironic...
I am nothing special; of this I am sure. I am a common man with common thoughts, and I’ve led a common life. There are no monuments dedicated to me and my name will soon be forgotten, but I’ve loved another with all my heart and soul, and to me, this has always been enough. -The Notebook

Ah, you are talking about the Wild West Religion.

Guns are bad. They should be banned IMHO.

People are the responsible ones.

Cars are bad. They kill people.
