No matter where you stand on the question of gun ownership, maybe we can all agree that giving guns to animals is taking the Second Amendment a bit farther than the Founding Fathers intended. Here's a shot of a Belgian shepherd, Marie (AKA Diana de Beausijour), armed with a German artillery model Luger. Marie/Diana was the mascot of Paul Stockton, commander of the US Air Service's 12th Aero Squadron during World War I. Marie later appeared in the movies, co-starring with Rudolph Valentino and Gloria Swanson. Tragically, though, she didn't make the transition to the talkies.
