Summary
| Description |
English: Very shortly after the assassination of President John F. Kennedy on November 22, 1963, this cartoon was published with an editorial strongly lamenting the availability of guns. By depicting the actual “instrument of assassination” in his meticulous transformation of a typical ad for guns, Herblock angrily condemns what he perceives as the dangerous ease with which too many kinds of people, including maniacs and assassins, can obtain guns cheaply and use them to wreak enormous tragedy.
