Only in America

Just weeks after a 6-year-old shot his teacher, a gun trade show in Las Vegas is hosting a manufacturer promoting its “JR-15,” a child-size AR-15 rifle.

The JR-15 was first launched last year by gun manufacturer WEE1 Tactical. The launch sparked outrage as the company promoted the J.V. death machine with cartoon skulls and crossbones stylized as boys and girls. The presumed boy skull had a blonde mohawk and green pacifier, while the girl skull sported blonde pigtails and pink bows and a pink pacifier. Both cartoons had one eye patched with a rifle sight.

Truly demented symptom of American greed, society centered in violence.

    (1/26/23): Gun manufacturer Wee 1 Tactical accused of marketing ‘JR-15’ rifle to children as Democratic senators call for investigation https://www.abc.net.au/news/2023-01-27/wee1-tactical-jr15-rifle-investigation/101900010

    “The JR-15 .22 youth training rifle is for adults who wish to supervise the safe introduction of hunting and shooting sports to the next generation of responsible gun owners,” the company wrote in a statement.
    “The JR-15 incorporates a patented safety mechanism that provides an added level of safety available on no other rifle in production.”
    Democrats have been attempting to tighten gun control measures in the United States for decades in a bid to tamp down frequent mass shootings.
