Contextual ads sure can be a bitch sometimes. So can regular, contracted ads that the website owner approves! But this is not to make light of the very terrible thing that did happen in Binghamton. [AP]

… and SOMETIMES they fit in exactly.
“Sex = less stress = more sex”
Gaffe X infinity = FAIL
Hmm, no, that says a lot about Drudge, appropriately enough.
No problem at all, because teh guns don’t kill teh people.
Teh bullets do.
Fuck him
i know it’s terrible but i did chuckle, thus making me the anti-christ according to the prophecy.
Matt Drudge continues to be the posterchild for legalized abortion.
I think now his headline is Iowa Approves Gay Marriage and the ad is for California Closets.
No, no gaffe. It’s Drudge. What did you expect? I bet conservatives are celebrating right now: fewer foreigners.
[re=280847]HopeyDope[/re]: Matt Drudge continues to be the posterchild for legalized abortion.
Retroactive abortion. Call Dr. Kevorkian!
The mind boggles.
Actually, this does seem appropriate because if history has taught us anything, it’s that a disgruntled wingnut with lots of guns was probably behind this horrific shooting.
Is now a good time to ask who took a bullet for Wonkette & gave Drudge a hit count?
Pardon me, but is the Wonkette equivalent having the “What did Dan Brown leave out?” ad running next to that photo of Charles Krauthammer?
fcking guns. why can some wingnut just go out and get a fcking rifle any old time? I mean why? oh yeah, because this is AMERICA.
Only slightly more INAPPROPRIATE than an ad for Lou Dobbs on the CNN…
[re=280855]NoWireHangers[/re]: bingo.
[re=280850]kudzu[/re]: Yeah. I am afraid to go to the gym tonight because they always have Lou Dobbs on. I shudder to guess what he’ll do to spin it so that it’s all the fault of the dirty foreigners.
Unless the shooter was a dirty foreigner, in which case I’m sure it’ll be party time with a Dobbsian orgy of “see, I TOLD you they were scum”.
God I hate that orange piece of shit.
Can we win the same weapons used in the massacre? If not, are there any other guns with recorded kills available to give out for free to the sane, educated and tolerant people of Greater Wingnutistan? Because that’s a fantastic idea that nothing bad could ever come from…
[re=280848]chascates[/re]: Win.
hahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!! I HAVE NO SOUL
[re=280850]kudzu[/re]: yeah, but maybe with SOME semblance of subtlety…
Oh, wtf am I saying. Do I know who I am talking about? Apparently not.
It’s much less inappropriate than the inevitable “If everyone had a gun, he wouldn’t have killed so many people” commentary that will soon follow.
[re=280877]SayItWithWookies[/re]: Amen. You always hear these lunatics with their wet-dream desires to hear a firefight at the local DMV. Just imagine life with everyone armed. “What? I don’t have enough cash to get $20 at the ATM? Well, fuck that!”
Every ATM from Tulsa to Wasilla would be shot up, and the ricochets might even kill the occasional Girl Scout or Palin spawn.
[re=280877]SayItWithWookies[/re]: Dammit, Wookies, you beat me to it. Also.
I like that Drudge uses the word “culprit” to describe the murderer. It’s so innocent sounding!
[re=280877]SayItWithWookies[/re]: And it follows if everyone had a million dollars we wouldn’t have a recession, and if Limpbaw went on a diet he wouldn’t be a slobbering sow, and if I had any sense I’d have started drinking before now.
The ad i see to the left here for Brian Moran is just ripe for ribbing…if only I had a St. Louis Cardinals shirt and a bandanna….
Did you just link to Breitbart?
Matt Drudge is a tool.
Film at 11.
This would be a good time to give cudos to Michael Steele, who keeps sending me e-mails asking for money so the RNC can stop Barack Obama from taking away my guns.
Way to go, Mikey!
It’s reassuring to know that concealed weapons are allowed in national parks–this sort of thing will never happen there now! It’ll be like that scene in the Reno 911 movie where they try to break up the rapper’s party, and every muthafucka has a S&W.
Yeah if only a shooting didn’t happen this afternoon, because “WANT TO WIN FREE GUNS” is a totally normal and fine advertisement.
Man, that shooting is awful, and a horrible setback for legal gun owners everywhere.
Um, what do I need to click for the free AR-15?
BTW, and maybe this is part of Fox’s strategy, but I am GLUED to Beck right now just waiting for him to say something crazy and piss on the immigents’ graves. Nothing great YET but he *IS* emphasizing how the people shot “who tried to do it legally” as oppose to gettin’ a nice firin’ squad for the guys who crossed the border.
[re=280888]joezoo[/re]: Yes but it is better than FOX, which has been calling him a “scofflaw.”
[re=280864]emmasue[/re]: fcking? What are you? A fucking Baptist? (The harshest thing I’ve ever said to a fellow wonkeratti. Forgive me, just cleaned up the room where three litter boxes are kept. You’d be, well, pissy, too).
“If men were angels no government would be necessary.” In the meantime, people who don’t give a shit about the law, or have a Things To Do Today list that reads “kill a bunch of people, fully aware I’m not getting away alive,” are going to win EVERY SINGLE TIME against Eagle Scouts who spents multiple Benjamins and three months qualifying to obey the law, subject to those cirlce-and-slash No Weapons Allowed signs that dull-normal hippies stick up… what, help me out here… outisde schools? Universities? I’m racking my brains trying to think of places where loonies haven’t (and couldn’t possibly) shot everything that moved until they were dropped in their tracks by heroes with slingshots, or poisoned blowgun darts, or mail-order shuriken; the usual thing, you know.
Applesauce-sipping banjo players with firearms outnumber law enforcement by at least ten to one. If you want to hold hands and sing “Imagine Part II” every time the NRA holds a press conference, mazel tov. Meanwhile, Dems are serious about the social safety net, and Cro-magnons are serious about prying their weapons from their dead hands. Why bother planting a survival garden if you 1) can’t strip a familiar, always loaded firearm blindfoldedd and 2) think armed, starving Dickensian ruffians will take note of your “Visualize Whirled Peas” bumper sticker and politely pass by, sacking your neighbor’s house instead?
[re=280951]OReillysVibrator[/re]: you mades me spit vokda on teh keyboard. [re=280959]
OReillysVibrator[/re]: And YES of course that is the strategy. But now I’m thinking of you and Glenn glued together, and it’s freaking me out just a little.
[re=280992]DustBowlBlues[/re]: I noticed that too. Looks like someone is a Wonkette virgin…or really sweet & therefore probably shouldn’t hang around the jaded likes of us.
[re=280994]GreenHalo[/re]: Whoa, dude..breathe. Humor’s our only weapon at the moment. Nice post, though. Thoughtful. On the other hand, I would like to start a band and call it ‘Dickensian Ruffians’ just because of the way it sounds when you say out loud. Also.
Hey, why no free guns on Wonkette? We have to settle for non-existent “I-pods.” That won’t keep an angry mob from stealing your last five cases of hobo beans, now will it?
Whatevs. Guns are so 2006.
Pitchforks are the new black…er, um, the new….killing utensil?
We are WAR BLOGGERS whose keyboards are mightier than the pen!
[re=280994]GreenHalo[/re]: I feel you. I’ll pry the guns out of their cold dead hands, right after I cut off their heads with a broad sword.
[re=281031]assistant/atlas[/re]: So gauche. Imagine Greenwich CT must be constructing an iron curtain about now.
btw, has Dobbs started with the I-told-you-sos yet?
Broadswords are good, but in a street fight, a gladius is better. If you want to intimidate someone, “kendo” is the code word you want. It’s not so much the initiation, i.e. being systematically beaten with a glorified broomstick, so much as the ability to sever the artery you’re aiming at without getting your very sharp blade stuck in or between nearby bones, which is a really serious problem if your weapon is sharp enough. Planting your foot on your enemy’s chest and yanking your sword free sounds a lot more amusing than it is, kind of like waking up in a drunk tank or accidentally walking into a blues bar and having to sing on stage in order to leave the place alive.
Not that it matters. You’re literally suggesting bringing a knife to a gun fight. I can use a bow, too, but unless I’m being attacked by gilled man-fish from Waterworld (who know there’s such a sport as bow-fishing and even a crime called dynamite-fishing, but there’s no such thing as fish sniping) it’s really rather silly to pretend that the weapon of choice at rock-throwing range isn’t a chemically propelled slug-throwing kinetic energy thingy.
This picture, complete with the ad for free guns, is the RNC’s 2012 presidential campaign poster, also.
Someone held a Free Gun Contest, and the First Prize is a POS M-16?
What’s the Second Prize: Two POS M-16s?
If you’re going to shoot up an Immigration Center, you need something more reliable.
Say, an H&K 401 Upper. Or maybe a nice, “Old Reliable” AK 47 or AK 74.
You know, if you buy two Romanian AKs in Arizona, you SAVE $10!!!! You can use the money to buy more bullets, so that you can get the entire Post Office or workplace!
[re=280877]SayItWithWookies[/re]: “If everyone had a gun . . .the resulting firefight would have been AWESOME!!!!!”
Better yet: What if everyone had been able to call in artillery fire? Or dial in an airstrike?!?
“Down 200, Right 50! Mark coffee/break room with WP! THAT’S IT! FIRE FOR EFFECT!”
Check out some of the stupid shit already being said about this tragedy. this video is out of control, and so is the guy’s shirt:

[re=281008]Texan Bulldoggette[/re]: They may have been a Wonkette virgin, but by now they’re doing teh anal.
I am so incredibly glad that I moved to a country where guns are illegal. Here in Australia, people attack each other with chairs
[re=281084]GreenHalo[/re]: You betcha, if I’m in a gun fight, I prefer to have a gun. That’s why I keep my glock strapped to me at all times. Outside the Kindergarten, or while tending my Freedom Garden, or in Church. Just in case. The helmet and vest are also helpful–I recommend that.
Why do I have to enter a contest to get my free gun? This is America. I have a right to bear arms. That means that if I can’t afford a gun, the government has to give me one.
[re=280955]Aloysius[/re]: I demand equal time for the fine products designed and licensed by Izhevsk Mechanical Works, Izhevsk, Udmurtia, Russia, now with dual-operating rod recoil-dampening countermass mechanism!
EBGs of the world, untie!
[re=281156]lampadadog[/re]: FINALLY, someone pointing out the obvious. We don’t need guns so much as we need armor. Personally, my first move upon rising is to suit up completely in molecularly aligned crystallized iron over a base of titanium nitride. Guns are so gauche; repulsor rays, now THAT’s where it’s at.
Is it just me or are people going a little nuts lately, this shit seems to be happening every week. Getting nuts out there!
A horrible ad in any context?
“Want to win free DRUDGE?
Click here to enter.”
Guns don’t kill people. Most gunshot victims die of blood loss, so it’s pretty clear that if you want to put an end to gun fatalities, drain people of their blood.
Tough to use reason and logic in all of this, isn’t it wonketteers?
