After the speech today I wondered why the NRA doesn't have a giant temple in the shape of a gun?

It would be such a sacred place for their members to come and worship. There could be gun temples all over the world! Or maybe each gun could be a saint that they pray to? Saint Remington, St. Winchester, St. Bushmaster!

Kind of the vibe I got from LaPierre who's one and only idea is to arm everything that breaths! The more weapons out there the more logical it is to simply keep arming people with more and more powerful weapons until EVERYONE has a nuclear bomb? Of course all the explosions would be happening in bomb free zones though! Of course!

Named the Whittington Center. I've driven by it. (You could almost feel the "gun-nuttery" radiating out of it.)
