NRA graphic novel revealed

Just in time for the holidays! Wonkette publishes illustrations allegedly from the NRA's forthcoming graphic novel/recruitment tool, Freedom In Peril: Guarding the 2nd Amendment in the 21st Century. Rightwing fear mongering at its finest, this artfully drawn bit of propaganda hits every hysterical high note of the radical right, from a gas can-carrying, hairy-legged eco-terrorist to a warty-faced George Soros (above) and obese Michael Moore. Of course, the hero of this tale--who boldly protects his family against "illegal alien gangs" and the like--is the white homeowner, keeping watch from a rooftop as the city around him crumbles. Ironically, it's the media that's to blame for inciting fear--not the organization that shows a white cop gagged with a gang member's bandana.
