This is real news, not parody, friend – multiple grocery stores in the United States have installed ammunition vending machines.

Sandwiched between vending machines selling candy and Mountain Dew is a machine that will dole out bullets with the press of a button.

This is the dangerous gun lobby agenda at its worst, friend, making ammunition readily available in grocery stores in Alabama, Texas, and Oklahoma, while our nation's gun violence epidemic continues to worsen.

Putting ammunition vending machines in grocery stores is the opposite direction that our country should be headed. We cannot allow our country to be run by the gun lobby's greedy hands and I'm asking for your help to stop our country going in an even deadlier direction:

Friend, no matter where you live, will you send a message to grocery stores that installed ammunition vending machines and make it clear the public is against this dangerous decision and stop the spread of these ammunition vending machines to a grocery store in your state?

ADD YOUR NAME >>

The decision to put vending machines full of bullets in grocery stores makes it recklessly easy to immediately purchase deadly ammunition without needed human interaction or oversight.

While ludicrous on its own, it also has far reaching implications: This is happening in a country where gun violence is the leading cause of death for children and teens; where 117 people die from gun violence every single day; where we are in desperate need of more common sense gun laws to close loopholes and save lives.

Easier access to bullets and weapons is the last thing our country needs.

I know that the American people want to change this country as badly as I do, that's why I'm asking you to speak out today and stop the momentum of a deadly decision in grocery stores across the country: Will you add your name to our urgent petition to grocery stores to remove these dangerous ammunition vending machines?

Thank you for taking action to make our country a safer place, friend.
