Jerry Summers: Potato Chips Or Ammo?

With the decline of cigarette sales in vending machines in America a new creative and more deadly type of purchase has been legalized in the states of Oklahoma, Alabama and Texas, with several other potential pro Second Amendment right to bear arms venues to follow.

Whereas overeating the spuds product might take longer to contribute to the demise of overweight fat folks, the new creative way of getting your bullets can provide an instantaneous method of maiming or death.

Pro gun advocates claim that vending machine ammo will eliminate those silly rules and regulations that might also bring the Alcohol Tobacco and Firearm (ATF) “Good Government Guys” (gals, etc.) into your life and a possible visit to your local federal temple of justice.

Anti-gun advocates quickly objected to said new steps into the free market example of entrepreneurship by claiming that the sale of the devices to the public is reckless when “the nation is grappling with gun violence.”

The opponents further claim that the new money makers place a priority on the convenience of pulling a lever on a machine to purchase ammo. They also claim that public safety is overlooked and disregarded.

The implied volatile nature of gun violence in commercial media ads being considered by an ammunition supplier that may produce an increase in the future for projectiles for Uzis, AK47s, 38 Smith & Wesson revolvers, etc. in vending machines is creative but disturbing.

(“Death from ammo sales like you've never seen before” might be an alternative ad by the anti gun group. The new business venture might be a good topic of discussion at any presidential debate held before the November 5, 2024 election.)
