Today’s Idiot
Doug Black. Mr. Black pulls some real whoppers:
New York City suffers hundreds of gun-related deaths each year, but some weapon manufacturers are bent on boosting the toll in 2006.
But carrying guns is already illegal in NYC, unless you’re well-connected or famous.
And if the last week is any indication, the city’s murder enthusiasts had a lot to be thankful for.
Ah, hateful rhetoric. The mark of any clear thinker.
three men were found in possession of “cop-killer” handguns that are specially engineered to penetrate the protective body armor of police officers.
Er, handguns don’t penetrate anything. The ammo does. The armor piercing ammo for this gun is already illegal for civilian ownership.
While the lives of our friends and neighbors are doubtlessly valuable, you have to sympathize with our nation’s beleaguered artillery merchants. These days, it’s getting harder and harder to make an honest buck selling killing machines.
Feel free to E-Mail the Editor.

And the 5.7×28 wasn’t designed to penetrate police body armor. It was designed to penetrate body armor worn by enemy soldiers.

E-mailing the editor is what the guy wants.
Good or bad publicity will allow him to point and say; “See! People read my articles!”
It sucks.

Yeah, but if you say “I won’t ever read your rag again” maybe it would shake something loose? Like Doug Black?
