Here's more fodder for the gun-grabber crowd.
This has received a lot of attention over the
last couple of days, and along with the most recent spate of shootings, it looks like another nail in the coffin of law-abiding gun
owners. The anti-gun crowd will use the
piece below as yet another example of why we
need more controls on guns.
When I was a very young boy, I think I
remember that a person could order a gun through the mail and have it shipped to his home, and we did not have the mayhem we have
today even with all of today's gun restrictions on the books. What's changed? You probably know the answer: a lack of personal accountability and responsibility; crushing taxes that force two people to work and give the short shrift to their family; and a government that gives money away to those who have not earned it. This isn't news, and it's not original--other people have said it before--but it's too bad that law-abiding gun owners will suffer for it.

Christopher Beamon, a 13-year-old seventh-grader in the Texas town of Ponder, got a 100 score from his teacher for a Halloween horror-story writing assignment. Authorities detained him on suspicion of making terroristic threats and held him in juvenile detention from Thursday until Tuesday, the DALLAS MORNING NEWS reported on Tuesday.
In fresh editions, the paper reprints the story as Christopher wrote it:
My flashlight went out and I heard someone right behind me and I turned in a very slowly scared way and boom the lights came on and the door bell rang. I walked very slowly and creepy and turned the knob ding dong the door bell went again. I said just a minute and I will be right there and I looked through the little hole in the door and Robin said Boo. I told him to come in and have a seat and we both wated and wated for Ismael because he was supposed to bring the (ounce) so we could get high but half an hour later still no Ismael so I got the idea of freeon and we grabbed a bag and a knife and ran out back to the airconditionar. We througth the bag over
the nostle and covered it tightly and used the knife to press the volv. We started to hear something after we got high so we ditched everything we quickly run to the door to see who it was and there wasn't anybody
there then we heard someone at the back door to see who it was I thought it was a crook so I busted out with a 12 guage and Ismael busted out with 9mm and we step off the porch and this bloody body droped down in front of
us and scared us half to death and about 20 kids started cracking up and pissed me off so I shot Matt, Jake, and Ben started laughing so hard that I acssedently shot Mrs. Henry. Ismael saw somebody steeling antifreeze so Ismael shot over ther near the airconditonar and hit somebody (indecipherable word) also scattered out and went home and my mom drove up and everything was back to normal but they didn't have any heads.

We are truly becoming a nation where the fear of what idiots and psychos MIGHT do set the standards and laws for everyone.

P.S. If the above "essay" isn't a strong case
for school vouchers, I don't know what is.

Reading "Capitalism: The Unknown Ideal," by Ayn Rand, should be required of every politician and in every high school.
