Isn't she cute? I sat on my haunches to take a photo of the gun as this little girl jumped up to take a closer look.
You may recall a photo of a similar knotted gun (also at the Waterfront) that I posted in 2007. Several similar guns, decorated in various countries' colours, have been made for the World Cup football event. The one in this photo is obviously decorated in the South African flag's colours, and you can see the knot tied in the barrel just behind the little girl's head. :)

very cute!!!!A bigger knotted gun (I believe is the original) is in front of the United Nations in New York. This kind of message should be all around the world!!!
