New ’Funny or Die’ Video Ends with Gunshot, Body Falling on Capitol Hill

This is the Democratic Party.

What’s funnier than a parody video featuring gun violence against Republican congressmen a week after Republican congressmen were targeted by gunfire? Well, nothing, according to Funny or Die, the liberal production company founded by Will Ferrell.

As if the Schoolhouse Rock “I’m Just a Bill” song hasn’t been parodied enough, Funny or Die tried it again as a way to mock the Republican health care law, dubbing its version “How a Bill Becomes a Law: Trumpcare Edition.”

It’s another stale and boring offering that meanders through the worn out complaints about the American Health Care Act. It’s so bad, we’re pretty sure most bailed within the first minute. But if you hang around until the end, you’ll find the most distasteful, tone-deaf part of the video. The sound goes quiet. A drawing of Capitol Hill appears. A gun cocks. A shot is fired. And a body hits the ground. We’ve captured the scenes in screenshots in case Funny or Die is pressured to “apologize” and deletes the video:

Violent rhetoric -- heck, actual violence! -- is all the rage for Democrats.
