OOH!! I want some of these for my tree this year…not everyone is as enthused as I am though…
Nothing says Christmas quite like a glittery black handgun hanging from the tree.
Urban Outfitters Inc. - no stranger to controversial products - is offering the 5-inch-long, Chinese-made gun ornament for $6 in its stores and catalogs this year.
“Bust a cap in your tree with this superglittery ornament in the shape of a handgun, complete with a satin ribbon for hanging,” the online description of the revolver says. It is meant, the retailer says, as an “ironic twist” on the holidays.
“Twisted” is more like it, said Kate Philips, Gov. Rendell’s spokeswoman. “The governor doesn’t find it humorous or clever to display weapons that are responsible for taking hundreds of lives each year as if they are decorations,” she said.
Oh phooey to you Gov. Rendell….Most people I know collect ornaments for their trees that express their interests and hobbies.
So what if it’s a little gun? You’de think it was a crime or something.

They’re pitching to the anti-gun crowd.
