"Assassination Chain" is a brand new dank meme inspired by a scene in the TV show Person of Interest where four characters hold each other at gunpoint. The scene isn't supposed to be a comedic one, but its absurdity makes it the perfect specimen for a fresh and dank object-label meme!

We've already recently covered this topic, but honestly the memes have been so good that we felt like we had to bring you even more of them.

We certainly don't want to get too deep into the politics of exactly what causes gun violence in America in light of recent tragedies, but one thing seems to be certain here: both gamers and non-gamers alike on both sides of the political spectrum are coming together to reject the idea that video games are what cause it.

So here are 17 brand new, freshly baked memes that roast the (lack of) logic that video games are the violent culprit!

Pigeons don't get much in the way of respect. Frequently referred to as "rats with wings," they're pretty low on the animal totem pole. That doesn't mean they deserve to be surrounded by GUNS as this poor guy is in this trending meme format. The template is being used to describe classic moments when we're threatened or overwhelmed, and the memes are getting to be a little too relatable for our liking.  

We never thought that one of our new favorite meme would be Saving Private Ryan related, but here we are. Reddit's been overflowing with hilarious object labeling memes featuring Tom Hanks bravely (and some may argue, stupidly) pointing his gun at the face of the tank. Like Captain Miller's bold attempt, this meme is all about unsurmountable odds - from childish disses to a swift "I have a boyfriend." We've combed the web for the best examples, but we're betting this one's gonna be blowing up for the next few days. We can't wait.

We've always known that being a delivery driver is a less than glamorous job, but these stories from Reddit really take the cake. Stay safe out there, delivery drivers of the world!

Tennessee Rep. Diane Black stated yesterday that she believes that it's pornography and a decline in "family values" that's causing school shootings in the United States. Pornography is available on the shelf in every grocery store without parental permission, she said. Many people, regardless of their stance in the gun debate, have come out saying that Black's assertion about pornography is completely off-base.

The incoming president of the NRA, Oliver North, recently stated that the high number of school shootings in the US isn't due to guns, but rather to the use of Ritalin among school-aged kids and violence in the media. This is what Twitter had to say about it.

Texas Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick faced a lot of backlash after he suggested that Friday's school shooting at Santa Fe High School may have been caused by the school having "too many entrances and exits," and not by the shooter's access to firearms. This is what people on Twitter had to say about it...

Watch out, people. Harry Potter's traded in his wand for a pair of guns...and a bathrobe? The Daily Mail released some wild photos of Daniel Radcliffe filming scenes for his upcoming flick, Guns Akimbo. The hilarious photos feature the star looking psychotic, waving the guns while dressed in a bathrobe, boxes and bizarre slippers. The photos quickly went viral on Twitter, and users are having quite a bit of fun meme-ing the paparazzi shots. 

Y'all come back now, ya hear?

We wrote about these "Who Killed Hannibal" memes last week, but we did not expect the format to take off the way it has. The meme, in which Eric Andre appears to have murdered Hannibal Burress, has even taken a somewhat political turn.
