Hahaha. Oh wait, they're serious, let me laugh harder. Bwahahahahah!!
Stories like this always remind me of an exchange on All in the Family between Archie and Gloria in an episode dealing with gun control. To justify her position against gun ownership, Gloria recites the current statistic of how many people died as a result of being shot. Archie's response was classic and still holds true today. "Would you be happier if they was all pushed off a building, little girl?" I often wonder how astonished and ticked off Norman Lear was that Archie Bunker was such a popular character. I'm positive that in Lear's mind that Archie was supposed to be the villain/buffoon to be shown up constantly by the enlightened "meathead". It must have caused him great consternation. Of course, like most liberals, I'm sure all the money he made off of the series assuaged any ethical dilemma he must have suffered.
