And yet, there's not a single automatic in the story, while his oldy-timey weaponry shreds the invaders (the ruffians are probably ICE judging by recent events). A better argument for grapeshot, forsooth.

And panties, at a minimum. Maybe add striped thigh-highs for maximum intimidation

It’s a roughly 15 year old satirical piece that references common anti-gun tropes that would be familiar to an American firearm enthusiast.

That the 2A only protects period firearms, that intermediate caliber rifles are high powered, the inclusion of bayonet lugs in assault weapons bans, bans on modern large caliber firearms and cannons, claims that hollow point bullets are inhumane, that modern firearms are excessively dangerous, et cetera.
