Or is it because they're all white people with guns? Because that never happens.

Intentional misspellings
Intentional fake souther drawl
Absolutely made up quotes.
Putting cowboy hats on everyone
Putting them in a bowling ally bar.

So are all people from the south gun owning idiots?
Are all gun owners hicks that couldn't form a thought if their life depended on it?
What exactly is this cartoon trying to say?

and the top right is Michelle Bachmann. Top left is Wayne LaPierre of the NRA. The other guy I don't know. So it is, in fact, making fun of real people. People who are dumb as shit and whom other dumbasses look up to and VOTE for. I'm not sure it's making fun of all Southerners, but it is making fun of dumbfucks who think their heritage/manhood/safety requires a deadly weapon.
