Endangered Species

" Dec 13, 10:30 AM ET LONDON (Reuters) -
The government said Wednesday it would ban the sale of samurai swords because the weapons had been used in a number of serious, high-profile attacks."

What bothers me is that I think they're just NOT going far enough. It's time to take this issue seriously!

Since it's no longer legal for a subject of Crown to posses a firearm, (even for self defense) the logical progression is to get a handle on cutlery as it were, completely. Next the ne’er do wells will progress to steak knives and when they're all forbidden the butter knives. I say grab them all now! Can't wait till it happens here in the good ol' USofA. I certainly hope Charles Schummer is on top of this. Come on Hollywood, here's a bandwagon to jump on!

Well, according to the International Crime Victims Survey; England, Australia and Wales, where anti-gunners have been most effective are the countries with the highest burglary rate and highest rates for crime of violence among the top 17 industrialized nations. Oh, wait. Let's ignore that fact. That puts them right with DC and would prove that criminals don't obey laws. Ok, so the criminals will still have samurai swords, no big deal, at least none of them will be injured by an honest citizen protecting themselves with a samuria sword.

How about that nonsense in Colorado. Can you imagine? One poor defenseless murderer was shot by an armed citizen. It's just not fair, his right to express himself by killing whoever he wanted to was infringed.

Thank God these days children can't be permitted to even draw a picture of a firearm, sword or knife. If Jill should see Jack draw a picture of a knight with a sword... Somebody gets suspended from school.
Worse, imagine if little Jack draws a soldier, with a firearm.

Along those lines I think we should protect our children properly and prohibit history books with photos of Washington's Crossing and most certainly Mount Suribachi. Otherwise, they might make some sort of connection that makes them believe that freedom isn't free!But I digress, the point being; how much better things are today that we have replaced common sense with laws and zero tolerance policies.

When I think back to all of the senseless bloodbaths... All of our fellow classmates who we slaughtered as we marched through the classrooms in our Cub Scout uniforms wielding our pocket knives.

Hopefully clear thinking control mongers will someday forbid the sale of cutlery here in this country too.

Firearms first though of course.
