But having voted for Bill Clinton once, George Bush twice, and Barack Obama twice, while electing a roughly even mix of Congressional Republicans and Democrats, Colorado is now one | Read More »

Imagine a world where the characters from your favorite childhood fairy
tales and fables are armed.
Hansel with a hunting rifle. Or Little Red Riding Hood’s granny with a
shotgun.
That world now exists on the National Rifle Association’s NRA Family
website, which partnered with author Amelia Hamilton “to present her twist
on those classic tales” — a series that has infuriated gun-control
advocates, some of whom called it “disgusting.”
Gun-rights supporters say the stories — which started with “Little Red
Riding Hood (Has a Gun)” and continued with “Hansel and Gretel (Have Guns)”
— are a more peaceful alternative to the often disturbing fairy tales from
childhood.
“The stories are really also for adults,” Hamilton told CBS News on Friday
morning. “It’s all about safety and it’s for parents to start those
conversations.”
Hamilton’s latest story, published last week, tells the revised tale of
“Hansel and Gretel,” who “had been taught how safely to use a gun and had
been hunting with their parents most of their lives” — and who took their
survival skills into the woods.
Remember: The original portrays the children as starving siblings who are
abandoned in the woods and stumble upon a candy house. A witch inside
captures them and prepares them as her next meal.
“In the original ‘Hansel and Gretel,’ the plot of the story is that the
village is starving so they leave Hansel and Gretel in the woods to starve
to death because the parents can’t afford to feed them,” Hamilton said this
week on the NRA’s “Cam & Company” show.
Hamilton said that her takes on the classic tales were “much kinder”
stories than the originals.
“In my version,” she said, “they were just going to go explore some
different areas of the woods and see if they could come up with something
to help feed the family, which apparently is a million times worse than
sending your children to starve to death alone in the woods.”
