At what point is something so close to the thruth that it is no longer satire ?

That occurred to me. Satire should be recognizable as such. This is not.

“What I propose is that anyone attempting to enter a school with a weapon be required to submit to a battery of mental health tests before being allowed in. "

Well, at least is would keep most politicians and a large number of 'educators' out of the schools.

/sarc.....maybe

...If anyone deserves to suffer it is those who selfishly save money that they could've spent to help stimulate the economy. The trillion dollar deficits of the current Administration have enabled the Federal Reserve to incrementally siphon off what would otherwise be sitting sterile in these fools' 'rainy day' funds

Semmens channels Krugman

Another fine column. BTW, John, I do believe that you might have reeled in a near record number of (very nice) folks who sorta skipped past the..."semi-satire" part.

The NYPD is known to spray 40 bullets to take down a perp.

Unless you are using a Ma Deuce, it might take 40 rounds to stop him too.

“What I propose is that anyone attempting to enter a school with a weapon political office be required to submit to a battery of mental health tests before being allowed to run. That way we could identify those who are dangerous too stupid and get them treatment instead".

That would leave Franken as unemployable by any company, much less as a member of congress. Good one again as usual. Sure used some stinky bait to catch the catfish.

Of course a leader of a growing tyranny will want to curtail any resistance before it can be started

So I guess there is no reason for law enforcement to have clips larger than 7 rounds?

John, this is perfect. Do you know how to capture their warped thought processes or what?

Thanks once again for the ping.
