Bah humbug poem (apologies for some language content)

A Christmas Story
'Twas the night before Christmas--Old Santa was pissed.
He cursed at the elves and threw down his list.
Miserable little brats, ungrateful... little jerks.
I have a good mind to scrap the whole ing works!
I've worked off my arse for damn near a year,
Instead of "Thanks Santa"--what do I hear?
The old lady es cause I work late at night.
The elves want more money--The reindeer all fight.
Rudolph got drunk and goosed all the maids.
Donner is pregnant and Vixen has AIDS.
And just when I thought that things would get better
Those arseholes from the IRS sent me a letter,
They say I owe taxes--if that ain't damn funny
Who the hell ever sent Santa Claus any money?
And the kids these days--they all are the pits
They want the impossible--Those mean little s
I spent a whole year making wagons and sleds
Assembling dolls...Their arms, legs and heads
I made a ton of yo yo's--No request for them,
They want computers and robots...they think - I'm IBM!
Flying through the air...dodging the trees
Falling down chimneys and skinning my knees
I'm quitting this job there's just no enjoyment
I'll sit on my fat arse and draw unemployment.
There's no Christmas this year now you know the reason,
I found me a blonde. I'm going SOUTH for the season

1202_Gun_TV_01Guns for sale are displayed in a gun shop in Roseburg, Oregon, on October 3.Lucy Nicholson/ReutersAs the fractious debate over American gun laws continues, two people in California are preparing to launch the country’s first all-gun home shopping television channel.
Created by Doug Bornstein and Valerie Castle—both of whom previously worked for home shopping networks—the new channel, named GunTV, is scheduled to launch on January 20, during the gun industry’s annual multi-day SHOT Show in Las Vegas. It will go live via national satellite and cable TV providers and eventually air 24 hours a day.
Neither founder was able to provide comment in time for publication.
GunTV, also known as GTV Live Shopping, will broadcast gun-related programming and sell firearms, ammunition and accessories. "The ease and convenience of purchasing firearms will be as simple as consumers calling a toll-free number and placing their order," GunTV says in a promotional video. The channel will also air safety, training and instructional content every hour, according to its reported.
Erich Pratt, director of communications for the Virginia-based Gun Owners of America, says he hadn’t heard about GunTV until he was contacted by Newsweek. But, he says the channel could eventually become the “Amazon of guns and accessories.”
“Because firearms are an item that are greatly treasured,” he says, “I do think that once people find out about it, there would be an interest.”
But not everyone is keen to see a gun shopping channel, especially in light of recent high-profile mass shootings. On Wednesday, two suspects killed 14 people and wounded at least 21 others at a holiday party Wednesday in San Bernardino, California.
Which is in part why Laura Cutilletta, senior staff attorney at the Law Center to Prevent Gun Violence—a national center focused on providing legal expertise in support of gun-violence prevention—says 24-hour firearm marketing is dangerous. “Bringing a product in your home that kills 30,000 people a year, many of them children who die when they find guns in the home, should be a well thought out decision,” she says, “not something done on a whim while watching TV at 3 a.m.”
Pratt disagrees. California, he notes, has the country’s strictest gun laws. The Golden State bans most assault weapons, prohibits the sale or transfer of large-capacity ammunition magazines and requires all potential gun buyers—whether at a licensed dealer, online or at a gun show—to pass background checks before purchasing the weapon. Pratt argues that none of California’s tight gun restrictions prevented the two suspects, who later died after a shootout with police, from committing mass murder. “Prohibiting good people from possessing guns,” he maintains, “just does not stop criminals and terrorists from getting guns.”
When asked about the timing of the channel’s launch—as gun violence stories continue to dominate national headlines—he says that law-abiding citizens shouldn’t have their freedoms taken away from them just because some people abuse their rights.
Some people calling for more gun safety measures see the platform as a way to promote background checks in a positive way. Mark Prentice, communications director for Americans for Responsible Solutions—the group co-founded by former Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords after she was critically wounded in a 2011 shooting in Tucson, Arizona—says GunTV could be a positive example of how the background checks system operates in the U.S.
“The most important thing is that dangerous people, like felons and domestic abusers, would not be able to purchase a gun through GunTV because they cannot pass a background check,” he says. “Law-abiding people should be able to go and purchase a gun through this emerging platform.”
The National Instant Criminal Background Check System processed 185,345 requests for background checks—a record—this year on November 27, or Black Friday, one of the largest retail sales days in the country.
“This was an approximate five percent increase over the 175,754 [requests] received on Black Friday 2014,” says Stephen Fischer Jr. of the FBI’s Criminal Justice Information Services (CJIS) Division. The previous high for receipts in one day were the 177,170 received in 2012, just days after the mass shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut, in which 26 people were killed.
On the same day the record fell, a gunman attacked a Planned Parenthood center in Colorado Springs, Colorado, killing three people and injuring nine.
