Help! We're Stuck In Damnable Time-Loop!!!!

Today, Tom Tomorrow offered a "sequel" to a 'toon from 2011. In both 'toons, Sparky the Wonder Penguin is in a colloquy with Biff. Sparky tries to explain the world of today to Biff who is trapped in the 1950s. In both 'toons, Biff spouts the NRA-line and Sparky cannot penetrate the NRA-fog. If this is a (fair & balanced) reprise of "Groundhog Day," so be it.
