A modest proposal

Gungod Jeff notes that the Brady Campaign to Empower Criminals is planning to put up billboards in Florida warning visitors that Floridians now have the right to use deadly force in self defense. I don't know if they have mocked up the artwork for them yet but I do have a draft to submit:

Works for me.

Totally off topic, but you mentioned Brady ... so it was funny.

WBAP radio was doing a spoof on a weekly interview with Pres. Bush this morning. He likened Hurricane Rita's big miss on Texas and hitting Lake Charles as such: Texas is like President Reagan. We dodged the bullet and Lake Charles, La., is Brady, taking it for us.

God, it was in such poor taste, but I couldn't help laughing hysterically. Thank goodness it was before my dental procedure, so I wasn't drooling, too.

It was a joke people ... NOT REAL. Figured I better put up a disclaimer before the moonbats start chanting about Bush blowing up levees or making hurricanes move back to Louisiana.

That WAS in poor taste. But funny.

Thanks to the Moonbats you can't say paralysed anymore, so I'll just say I'm physically disadvantaged with laughter and require assistance to regain an upright posture. ;-) Screw the moonbats.

Actually - I kind of like the idea of those billboards even though I like your version better. Theirs will pretty much have the same effect that yours would.
And people who won't use deadly force can run around with t-shirts that say so - and see what happens!
(Floridian here, who thinks it's really nice of the Brady set to put up all those billboards warning criminals not to attack us.)

Kathy, that's a great unintended consequences outcome! :-)
