'Daily Show' Shouts Out 'Marin County Kumbaya Patrol'

In introducing a segment on how a wide range of groups are ready to talk about gun control, Jon Stewart juxtaposes the NRA and the peace-loving ways of many Marin-ites.

"Finally everyone from the NRA to the Marin County Kumbaya Patrol is ready to talk about gun violence, although, to be fair, the Kumbaya Patrol has been ready for quite some time now."

That's how Jon Stewart opened The Daily Show Tuesday night. In the wake of the and the wave of mass shootings in recent months, Stewart sought to juxtapose the recent willingness of the National Rifle Association to talk about gun control with the never-waning willingness of peace-loving folks in, say, Marin, to have that conversation.

Iron Springs Brewery in Fairfax took notice, and today sent out this note on its Facebook page: "Complimentary fries to any one from the Marin County Kumbaya Patrol from Noon-4:00 today."
