#1 Although it is not out of range for all weapons, I actually think this is a good idea.

#2 Venezuela has the world's highest death rate from guns, according to the United Nations, with 34 deaths in every 100,000 caused by firearms.

What?!?!? You mean that Hugo's socialist paradise, with its rational gun-control laws and compassionate Bolivarian economics, actually has a higher death rate from gun crime than brutal, NRA-infested, dog-eat-dog KKKapitalistic AmeriKKKa? That can't be right!

#6 Hugo's a lady who's sure
All that glitters is gold
And he's buying a stairway to heaven.
When he gets there he knows
If the stores are all closed
With a word he can get what he came for.
Ooh, ooh, and he's buying a stairway to heaven.
