To Some Americans Happiness is a Warm Gun

      Happiness is a warm gun (Bang, Bang, shoot, shoot)

     Happiness is a warm gun momma (Bang, bang, shoot, shoot)

When I hold you in my arms (ooh, oh, yeah)

and I feel my finger on your trigger (ooh, oh, yeah)

I know you can do me no harm (ooh, oh, yeah)

refrain

Mother Superior jumped the gun...

Happiness is a Warm Gun - by the Beatles' John Lennon

The photo above is real. I checked it out on Snopes. It's authentic.

In October of 2023, an image gained nearly one million views on X (formerly Twitter), allegedly showing an American family and their large collection of guns.

An Italian photographer Gabriele Galimberti took the photo as a part pf his "The Ameriguns" project. for which he won the 2021 World Press Photo of the Year contest in the "Portrait Stories" category.

Here's another family portrait from Amerguns:

Meet the family flamethrower Torrell Jasper a.k.a. Black Rambo. He light's things up as his adoring family watches from a pool - lined with firearms. They live in Schiever, Louisiana.

Nothing says Christmas like new assault rifles as seen by this family who asked Santa Claus for fully automated weapons of war.

Just look at all the happy smiles (left) in U.S. Congressman Thomas Massie's house in this holiday greeting card that was taken days after a school shooting.

How about this all- American family (right) posing with their personal assault rifles? 

The Oklahoma GOP chairman and his family (shown here) called for Dr. Fauci to be shot for mask and vaccine mandates. Don't they look like they mean business?

Well, I guess you get the picture. Americans love their guns so much mass shootings will never go away. We'll always lead industrialized countries in gun possessions and killings.

As it stands, John Lennon knew that when he satirized guns in his song. It was no small irony that John was murdered by a gun wielding nutcase after it came out.
