Apple introduces iPhone 6: The first phone-gun hybrid.
January 24th, 2015
Cupertino, CA
Today, representatives from Apple unveiled the much
anticipated re-thinking of their revolutionary smartphone. A new generation is born: iPhone
6. Some may actually call it the
iPhone 6-Shooter.
In addition to the new and intuitive design and interface,
this phone comes with a controversial new app called iGun. iGun allows the user to fire real
bullets, much similar to a real gun.
Six rounds can be loaded into the phone at once, and fired at the speed and
frequency of a semi-automatic handgun.
Apple claims that the app is for self-defense purposes only. Apple
likewise claims no malicious intent:
“… the iGun upgrade is simply a result of the market: likely consumers want both a smart
phone and a tool for self-defense,” said Alex Jones of the Apple Press
Ministry.
Anti-gun groups have already released statements, and plan
to use their recently abridged constitutional rights to take the issue to
court. Many consumers are hesitant.
Some iPhone 5s users and Apple devotees have vowed to not purchase the
upgrade, and even to boycott Apple.
In November of 2013, The National Rifle Association acquired
34% of Apple’s stock. Left Wing
blogs and Anti-Gun groups claim that the iGun is a direct result of this
so-called “take-over.” Apple’s CEO
and Chairmen did not respond to requests for comment on this matter. NRA Executive Vice President Paul Ryan could
likewise not be reached for comment as he is currently on a campaign tour in
Ohio.
The iPhone 6 is scheduled to be released next month. Demonstrations against the device are
being planned; use the internet to find a grass roots organization or protest
near you.
