“Now that we’ve banned plastic straws, I guess I’ll just have to drink my frappucino through…”

“now that we’ve banned plastic straws, i guess i’ll just have to drink my frappucino through this assault rifle” was posted on Twitter by Seranine Elliot on July 14, 2018. The tweet is now private. “Frappucino” is often corrected in other tweets to “frappuccino.”
 
The saying satirically shows that the freedom to drink through a plastic straw may be lost, but the freedom to own a gun is still constitutionally protected, and the speaker intends to use that remaining freedom.
