John Hinckley Jr -- Pride of the Progressive American Penal System

The whole thing is creepy. I had to look twice to tell that was a female.

As I was working at a home, the owner (a former assistant D.A. near Denver) told me about some wolves he was observing on a recent vacation after we had talked about a recent murder in the news. One pup kept on being overly aggressive, hurting his siblings when they were trying to play around.

After a week, the mother took the "bad" pup by the neck, killed it, and tossed it to the side.

That's how nature solves the problem.

An excellent pre-mortem on our dying culture...as usual, Gerard.

Things are hung, people are hanged.

It's ironic that "Hinckley — who still suffers from narcissistic personality disorder" has been incarcerated in a mental hospital while The wOn, who also undoubtedly suffers from the same disorder, is President of the United States of America.

Hinckley assassinated the President and The wOn is attempting to assassinate The United States of America.

Make that "Hinckley attempted to assassinate the President".

Sorry.

Funny, not a wisp of that moral fog has appeared for Sirhan-Sirhan.

Jodie Foster is inconsolable.

I really hope that FYE bag doesn't contain a copy of Taxi Driver.

Carol (ahem,)

As the poets have mournfully sung,
death takes the innocent young,
the rolling in money,
the screamingly funny,
and those who are very well hung.
- W.H. Auden

I could vomit.

Carol: good on you. I have always remembered with the following quote:

"Meat, sir, is hung. Men are hanged"

I think that the problem is that there are so few hangings anymore.

Sheesh, I do and I do and I do for you and THIS is the thanks I get!

This could well be the fate of Jared Loughner. Think about it for just a minute.

Ugh...

I'll see that this is cleaned up after the revolution.
