Comment by Chig on March 20, 2012 at 6:41pm: Ah... There are far more bizarre laws on the books in all the states which are not actually enforced. I think their existence is due to political fodder from battles to get legislation passed in which someone tries to get a Bill shot down by putting ridiculous or even unpopular additions into the Bill. Either that or some nutcase put it out there and it will be shot down. Basically a physicians oath to do no harm, and fear of lawsuits will still be in place and dictate patient care challenge such things if they did get passed.

What 'er you gonna' do about that Pen ?.......PEN !!!

I read this last week and it wasn't so much that I was insulted to be compared to a cow or a pig as it was that I was inFURiated that ANYone thinks ANY animal should be left to suffer when there's something we can do about it. I can say from very recent experience that when you are suffering and you KNOW there is help but you can't get it, you feel like all of existence has abandoned you.

I might be able to understand if this was expressed in the ancient past. Terry's comments were made last week and his motivations matter not. Anyone who can get up and say something like this expecting to gain any sort of leverage in this day and age needs to be summarily shunned by all thinking people.

Comment by Chig on March 21, 2012 at 12:17am: fifty bizarre state laws

My favorite if you know anyone from Missouri :-P

Missouri
Children may buy shotguns in Kansas City, but not toy cap guns.

Comment by Chig on March 21, 2012 at 12:32am: Wait.... that children with shotguns probably did not help convince Peter to come here.

Shun away. Just please stop short of stoning please. Hooray for that lost art of Civil Discourse. I would hate getting pelted over something stupid like political process. That process should never be confused with thinking. Obviously, as you can see there was little thinking from what was proposed here.

Comment by SydTheSkeptic on March 21, 2012 at 3:32am: Ugh. I have no sense of jumor around this shit. It just ENRAGES me and it makes me want to hit people. mostly men. not all, just- ya know, those guys she listed. and sushi. It makes me want sushi...

Wait, I think that last part's cuz I skipped a meal.

Comment by BlancheNoE on March 21, 2012 at 8:39am: @- Chig. HEY, you could BURN a FINGer with one of those cap guns.

Yeah, you also can't buy a toy gun, water or otherwise, that looks even remotely real.

I found that out when I was trying to "arm" myself for LtAdam's "The Vault". I had to whittle my own.

...and don't worry, no stoning,...sets a bad example.

Comment by ThatGirl on March 21, 2012 at 9:46am: * I was here.

I have nothing to Say about this, only things to DO. Later y'all
