Ray Nagin photo caption contest! Updated

By Michelle Malkin  •  February 13, 2008 07:52 PM

The Chocolate City clown mayor, Ray Nagin, is alive and kicking. What’s he doing after having confiscated the guns of law-abiding citizens during Hurricane Katrina?

Look for yourselves. (Click for full pic.)

NOLA.com is holding a photo caption contest.*

Lagniappe’s Lair wants Second Amendment activists to pitch in.

Have at it. Should be like, well, shooting fish in a barrel.

A chocolate barrel.

***

*Update: The Times-Picayune issued some sort of “clarification” about the photo. Readers of the paper are lambasting the paper for caving in to Nagin. A commenter who saw the news clip of the press conference where the photo was taken writes: “ok - I just saw the film on the news. It[']s worse then the picture. He swings it around pointing it at the chief and everyone in the room. No excuse for that.”

    See if you can carve something useful out of this jumbled mess from a tired Neocon at midnight:

    Ray models for a commercial glamorizing the city that Democrats have proudly rebuilt to its former glory.

    I thought the pic was from a PSA on “What tourists should bring to enjoy New Orleans”. But, nice caption would be “Say hello to my new campaign manager.”

    This is a humorous caption contest and the subject is a racist political hack. We can’t have fun with that because we might offend the nutroots?

    You can have my punchlines when you pry them from my cold, dead keyboard. :lol:

    “Now we can really make New Orleans a Chocolate City with this fire power!”

    Or

    So, if ol’ Ray shows up at your house to take you vehicle and, then, you see him driving your neighbors Hummer it would be wrong to poke fun at him.

    The day a mayor proclaims that I surrender my firearms is the day I invite him over to the house to take them from me.

    But, hey, it is just the Constitution so - the hell with it right?

    While I am not a fan of the mayor, he is being pilloried for this one, and he is in the right….

    No, he really isn’t in the right. That Chief should be stomping a mudhole in the mayor’s chest for pointing a rifle at him. With firearms, your number one rule is to always assume the weapon is loaded. Never point it at anything you are not willing to see destroyed. The loudest sound in the world is a bang when you were expecting a click (the reverse also holds true). The mayor’s obviously cavlier and joking attitude with what is, essentially, a tool designed to kill others, shows not only his basic lack of education when it comes to handling firearms, but it also shows his sheer hypocrisy in the wake of the Katrina firearms confiscations. Talk about tap-dancing on your own phallus with a pair of golf-shoes.

    Now if y’all will excuse me, I feel the need to print up this picture and head to the range.

    Lots of good sarcasam on this thread and glad to see that we can even laugh at the idiots.

    On a serious note-the day I saw law abiding citizens having their constitutional rights violated by the police based on an order from a mayor-that became the day when I realized that our founding fathers had more foresight when they gave us a Republic and will never forget an elderly woman being body slammed by a cop when they asked to see here gun and she presented it in a non-threatening manner.

    Mayor nagin, his hack of a police chief, and pols like him are the reasons why I will never give up my weapons irregardless what h/she says. The only thing nagin is missing is a white robe because his racist rhetoric is nearly identical to what was being promoted in the early 20th century.

    Angry, and indignant about this man? You bet, and I will not shed a tear if he isn’t reelected or becomes “bubba’s” wench in prison.

    There is absolutely no execuse for violating the US Constitution that nagin flagrantly committed. If there was ever a legitimate case for a federal civil rights violation-this would be it. There comes a time when even the shepherd has to take up arms and defend the flock.

    Your partially right; its not because nagin is black, but has everything to do with his incompetence, and his racist rhetoric.

    I don’t care about the color of his skin, but his racist remarks and the fact that he is in a position of power is what irks me. If critising, without racial slurs, a politicians actions makes me a racist because of the color of their skin, then those making the accusations need to look into the mirror to see that the shadow of the kkk, or the black panther party isn’t smiling in agreement with them.
