You neglected zucchini muffins, zucchini cake and zucchini pancakes. There may be other recipes, too. "may" = "certainly".

Like tomatoes, zucchini can grow in beach sand watered by used motor oil After a really bad thermo-nuclear war or asteroid strike, the only things growing will be various ferns, kudzu, tomatoes and zucchini.

Of course, having said it looks real, I actually think that's a completely imaginary firearm in that pic. Really doesn't look like any of the usual semiauto rifles your gun nuts usually have. But I won't claim any particular expertise.

Oh, don't worry - AOC is going to take your car as soon as her Green New passes next week. Along with your airplanes and cows. And Aqua Net.

Just a bit of devil's advocate here-

The possibility exists that we might see MORE people carrying guns in public if these background checks, licensing, permits, etc go through.

The analogy goes that cars are licensed, insured, and registered, so why not guns?Well, you see cars EVERYWHERE you go these days.If these go through and there is more, we might see even more people packing daily.

The way the courts are, that analogy could well become the law of the land.

Would that be better or worse than what we have now?

So, how does that mental health thing work? Who is administering the mental health, and who is paying for it? And do people deemed crazy by the system still get to buy as many guns as they want, and then check into a hotel tower in Las Vegas?

It looks like a giant version (or a normal version carried by a small girl) of some H&K MP5 SMG.(quite prevalent in 2000-2010 video games, don't look at me like this)(ew - I googled the SMG name to check for pictures and first results were links to buy some of these)
