 ”Welcome to Ted Nugent’s Gun Country!”
 Discovery Channel and TV’s Descent Into Total Idiocy

By Alexander Zaitchik

“Discovery is chasing the lowest common ratings denominator by pandering to survivalist gun nuts. If one scene defines last week’s premiere of  “Ted Nugent’s Gun Country”, set in the survivalist-thick scrublands surrounding Waco, Texas, it is the show’s unnervingly giddy and pony-tailed host standing behind a .50-caliber Browning armor-piercing machine gun and  blowing a bunch of holes  in the four-inch reinforced steel door used by a team of local “preppers” to protect their bunker armory against an attack of the undead. Neither the machine gun nor the vault hatch fills any conceivable civilian-defense need, but the show, like the gun culture it celebrates, is all about overkill. An excited Nugent declares his intent to upgrade the defenses around his own bunker gun closet, and after a commercial break appears on screen pumping off rounds from the preppers’ Zombie Apocalypse chainsaw-shotgun.”

There you have it folks, what a MAN, a real warrior this one, let me go get my rifle and wave my flag and celebrate such a wonderful American, testosterone personified… actually, I’m going to go vomit at the thought of this cowardly little puke… And Teddy boy, and I repeat myself, boy, I don’t give a damn if you or your friends don’t like it. – CP
