According to Bishop Berkley, everything is just a collection of sense impressions, so none of this shit may have actually happened at all.

Guns don't kill people; people kill guns! Won't you <i>pleeeeeaase</i> think of the guns?

I believe Ted Nugent has given many public speeches on the topic of firearms "special delivery," perhaps he can be a consultant?

Sounds like a fairly modest proposal to me.

And the idea that anyone anywhere would not be motivated by money in all their decisions.

I believe the correct formulation for this request is:

<blockquote>I know this is an important part of American history, but this is really disturbing. I wish you had chosen another image.</blockquote>

An army of fetusi naturally follows from an army of dicks, provided you have at least a battalion of wombs.

Dude, the Gadsden Purchase is the only thing that keeps AZ even somewhat sane

Apparently, in AZ, they <i>must</i> sell it to the highest bidder.

This accords nicely with the thinking of that great federal jurist and intellectual star, the Hon. Richard Posner (a Reagan appointee to the federal bench). He has argued in favor of buying and selling babies on the free market in lieu of government-regulated adoption. The idea is that spending the most possible money to buy a kid is a good measure of how much the parent wants the kid, and therefore the free market will ensure the safety and well-being of the purchased child.

The ones no one wants can apparently be recycled as biofuels.

Back when he published this witty little "think piece," he said he assumed everyone would know that it was intended to be provocative--to think the unthinkable. But that was <strike>a million years ago</strike> 15 years ago or so. It is now presumably an official plank in the <strike>Republican</strike> New Liberarian Party platform.

:"Economics," Judge Posner has written, "wields the baton of my multidisciplinary orchestra." Looking at the world through a strictly economic lens, he has also contended that the rule of law is an accidental and readily dispensable element of our legal ideology. He advocates legalizing marijuana and LSD but not regulating the abuse of animals in medical testing (on the grounds that humans are more important than animals, so fuck 'em).

All in all, a delightful presence on the federal bench. <a href="http://organdonorincentives..." target="_blank">" rel="nofollow noopener" title="http://organdonorincentives.org/wordpress/wp-cont...">http://organdonorincentives...

No doubt the good professor passed a background check, and owns a small arsenal.

And this reminds me: Why isn't the government moving faster on placing guns in churches? Shooting up schools is so yesterday; it's obvious that the next big massacre is going be carried out by vengeful East Coast liberal atheists as part of the War on Christmas. (Those people get so literal.)

Yeah, the government sticks its nose all up in our business when it comes to putting a creche on the courthouse lawn, but when religious freedom is really crying out for government intervention, nothing. Not arming congregations, pastors, priests, Sunday-school teachers, and chaplains is a clear proof that Obama is a Muslim.

Can't help but read that in Jesse Pinkerton's voice.
