If it's NOT gun control, what IS it?!

Mind control

Gun Control?!

Nope. Gun control won't stop it.

Guns for Syria

Sometimes you just report what's happening and it's so insane it makes for a decent cartoon.

Crazies With Weapons

The news from Sandy Hook was and is horrifying.

Today's cartoon expresses what I believe to be a sad parallel. Not funny, but I felt compeled to make the point about crazies with guns ...or nukes.

Evil

My job is commenting on the news. Somjetimes a daunting task. Like dealing with another American gun spree slaughter of schoolkids in another American school. Pure evil.

Halloween (1994)

Today's Golden Oldie is from October 1994. Fifteen years ago this month.

Once upon a time Halloween was a fun holiday for kids who went around playing pranks and begging for candy.

Nowadays it's a big time commercial American holiday and nobody lets their kids go trick or treating on their own.

We live in darker times.

Happy Halloween

Virginia Tech

The slaughter of innocent victims at Virginia Tech has prompted a national debate in the United States. It seems to me that the challenge is to prevent the bad guys from getting guns (or nukes).

A simple truth

But political correctness does not allow for making the distinction between the good guys and the bad guys.. . and therein lies the problem for an America trapped by its PC blinders.

* * * Here in Israel, where where nobody can walk onto a college campus without being frisked and checked by security ...and where lots of people are licensed to carry legal firearms, and do, a lone shooter isn't shooting fish in a barrel.

* * * So now what does the West do about the whacko Iranian President, his rambling and violent threats, his receiving messages from Allah, and his vow to wipe Israel off the map, and his drive to get his hands on nukes?

Nu?
