Quote of the week

In response to Tony Blair's new proposals for "getting tough" on gun criminals in magically gun-free Great Britain:

Jeff raises his hand and says, "Oh Tony? I have a suggestion. How about allowing the law abiding people to arm themselves so they can blow the fucking heads off these mutant punks when attacked by them? As soon as these thugs realize that their intended victims are no longer defenseless sheep, they might reconsider their life of crime. And if they don't, what's a few dead muggers and thieves in the overall scheme of things?"

There, glad I could help out.

Sing it, Brother Jeff!

This argument is goes on? Christ, I was having it five, six years ago in college polisci classes. I even had data (provided in the text book) that showed lower violent crime rates where there were concealed carry permits as opposed to places where there were tougher gun laws.

*shakes head* guess it's time for another beer

Amazing how Heinlein had a quote for every situation.
