Utah Gun Rights Activist Becomes Newest Member of ‘I Was Duped by Sacha Baron Cohen’ club.
Janalee Tobias, a gun rights activist from Utah, has admitted in an interview with Deseret News that she fell victim to filming a segment with Sacha Baron Cohen for his new Showtime series Who Is America?
He then told her to talk in a childlike voice and explain to children how to load the “puppy,” with bullets that looked like coloring crayons. “Yanalee, will you teach the boys and girls how you safely handle puppy pistol?” he told her. “Look at the pretty bullets,” she said, imitating him. “No Yanalee, I want you take the bullets and show them. Yanalee tell them to look at the pretty colors.”
Then came the singing. “Up, down, left, right. Stayin’ alive, stayin’ alive,” she said. “He’s funny OK. He’s good. It’s funny. But this is not funny with guns.” … “I think the bunny gun (song) was, ‘Head, shoulders, knees and toes,’” she said. “But it was ‘Head, shoulders, not the toes, not the toes.’ …

This walks the border between hilarious and disturbing quite nicely. Nice to see the grifters get grifted, I guess.

I think it's going to be misread as all these Republican figures endorsing arming preschoolers, but think what it really does is demonstrate how easy it is to get these grifters to go along with an insane script because it's all a grift to them.

Holy crap. Those guys have actual power in this country. They create our laws. After watching this I'm pretty sure they would have said "Go F___ yourself, San Diego" if it was written on the teleprompter for a pro gun ad.
"We have taken up arms in defense of our liberty, our property, our wives, and our children; we are determined to preserve them, or die."
