Dealer Offers Free Gun With Car Purchase (Mizzurah, naturally)

[Blue_Tires]

BUTLER, Mo. -- A local car dealer is holding a controversial promotion involving guns.

Max Motors in Butler is offering anyone who buys a car the choice of $250 in gas or a free semi-automatic handgun.

"Like I say, it's a choice -- protection or gas," said Walter Moore with Max Motors.

Moore said he came up with the gas or guns promotion.

"We got high gas prices, theft, carjackings, innocent people getting hurt," Moore told KMBC's Chris Nagus.

So far, the handgun is a more popular choice.

"Right now were running 80 percent toward the gun," Moore said.

2. "...innocent people getting hurt."

Yes, putting more guns out there on the streets will sure fix that problem.

3. 'Family Guy' did something similar to this

I think it was in Texas — when you bought alcohol, you got a free gun.

In fact, it was the law — when you bought alcohol, you had to take the gun.



That was satire, though...

There is a poll on the Web Site, plese vote against the gun.
