CHRISTMAS PRESENTED

Spotted in Chowchilla, CA

Nothing says Merry Christmas and Joy to the World like a safety vested snowman well-trained in firearms. The only way you'll get your hands on this smiling bundle of Christmas cheer's inflatable gun is to pry it from his cold, melted mittens. Watch out, Santa, he might be gunning for reindeer! And look out, Frosty, better not say Happy Holidays, otherwise this cool-head camouflage gun-lover here might claim snow-blindness and take you out! Snuggle up with that gun tonight, Mr. Snowman
...while visions of willfully misinterpreted 2nd Amendment rights dance through your head!
