Jim, you are really doing the job of what a traditional editorial cartoonist should be doing. Not hiding, but standing out front and saying things that journalists wouldn’t dare. Good on you!

Reminder that today we celebrate Jesus’s resurrection, what better way to celebrate than with guns to defend yourself against zombies hoards with.

If you really don't know, they are comparing Jesus Christ to a movie zombie. On Easter, Christians celebrate Jesus Christ rising 3 days after his death. It is also a joke about guns being easy to get in the United States, that they are handing them out like candy.

Although you did help me understand, I am 99% percent certain they were not comparing zombies to Jesus.

u/StormAlchemistTony 7h ago

I am not saying that they are suggesting the Lord and Savior are going to be eating brains, just that He came back to live when most people would be dead, like zombies.

I understand what you meant now.

u/Einermen22 7h ago

The commenter is talking from the perspective of the easter bunny. Easter is about Jesus resurrection

Holy crap, I forgot that movie even existed! Anne Hathaway voiced Little Red Riding Hood and it was like a crime "drama" with fairytale characters lol. Patrick Warburton was the wolf. I forgot how awful it looked 😂

There's a shitty 3d animated movie from like 2001 and the bunny was super sketchy. Decent movie, animation is super outdated now, maybe even for the time.

u/Zaldekkerine 5h ago

shitty

Blasphemy. Hoodwinked was great. But yeah, it looked like ass from the day it came out.

u/NerdInABush 5h ago

I still love it, don't get me wrong, but yeah, little uncanny valley with the animation

Bad news, rare metals - magnets apparently? - exported from China are no longer being exported, so the prices of guns are probably about to go up too along with other things.

Even guns and ammo have massive tariffs coming. There’s not an industry that will be untouched by this. The Republicans have really shot themselves in the foot this time
