It's come to my attention that many of you are concerned about "gun control"—and I'm here to say, "Don't worry, people! I've got this one!" That's right, everybody calm the eff down, because I've got it all figured out, and pretty soon there won't even be a problem. See, here's the thing about guns:

Guns have two primary functions: (1) to murder things, and (2) to make the person holding the gun feel less like a chicken shit. For example, hunters love to murder animals—they're just too scared to do it with their own hands. In their defense, there's a very good reason hunters don't sneak up on 10-point bucks and try to strangle them with piano wire. It's because they're afraid the deer will get mad at them, and retaliate by perforating the hunters' anuses with an antler. So to conquer this fear, of course they have to use guns to kill animals from great distances (preferably while hiding behind things) because BRRRR! Angry deer! Amirite?

However, there are also those who are afraid of more than just deer—in fact, they're afraid of everything! So naturally, these people need an even bigger assault weapon. And the more scared they are, the more guns they need. Even if they live waaaaaay out in the country where the most heinous crime ever committed is drunken Uncle Jed driving his riding lawn mower down the highway to the liquor store—these people probably have a very good reason to be petrified of life (don't ask me what it is), and desperately need protection that only a Bushmaster AR-15 semi-automatic assault rifle with a 100-mag clip can provide!

Me? I don't own a gun, and here's why: The only thing I'm scared of is ex-Mrs. Wm.™ Steven Humphrey #2—and besides, the gun hasn't been made that could stop her from nagging me to death. However! I totally understand the overwhelming insecurity of gun owners (and similarly, 4X4 truck drivers), and I'm here to help!

The problem is there aren't enough TV shows depicting gun owners who honestly have nothing to be afraid of. For example, in shows like Justified, 24, or CSI, the protagonists need guns because they're frightened of frightened gun-wielding criminals who also think they need guns to defend themselves from frightened cops! That's why I'm developing some new shows where the main character carries a gun—but decides to eventually get rid of it. Because... seriously guys... people want to kill me WAAAY more than they want to kill you. And I'm not worried about it—so lose the gun and chill out.

Here Comes Honey Boom Boom!—The pint-sized hillbilly beauty pageant contestant is awarded a gun in the Li'l Miss Assault Weapon Pageant—but gets rid of it after realizing she's much scarier than any firearm.

The Golden Guns—Four longtime friends move into a retirement home/indoor shooting range. However the thought of a bunch of shaky old people with guns freaks them out, and they move somewhere else.

Bambi, the Anus-Perforating 10-Point Buck—Fearing hunters, Bambi carries a concealed firearm... until he realizes, "Waitasecond... I can just perforate their anuses with my antlers. WHAT AM I SCARED OF??"
