A friend who moved from Massachusetts to Florida published some idiotic letter to the editor saying that if we ban guns from public places to protect the masses, we should also ban spoons because they are used to scoop ice cream and make people fat.

Another guy I know, a self-proclaimed libertarian, chimed in, saying he preferred to live in a place where you can take any measure to protect yourself. That did it for me. I told him that if he was in such constant terror of being attacked, that instead of living in places like Pakistan or Afghanistan, he should move someplace more civilized. I said I had heard that many parts of North America were English-speaking, and might be to his liking (he lives in New Jersey). I can't wait for his response.
