The story in the Quad-City Times about firing a mortar to start the Quad-City Times Bix 7 road race makes my heart hanker with envy. This year, the 7-mile race will start with a blast fired from a self-propelled howitzer cannon mounted on the rear of a Humvee. Wow, how can I get one?
My gun advocate friends claim that the Second Amendment, which guarantees the right to bear arms, is unconditional. It’s already become perfectly all right to hunt game with an assault rifle so the next logical step is to utilize the howitzer. |

My how clever.
For this idiot's information, it isn't legal to hunt anywhere in the United States with a full-auto firearm. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
As an individual, I believe, very strongly, that handguns should be banned and that there should be stringent, effective control of other firearms. However, as a judge, I know full well that the question of whether handguns can be sold is a political one, not an issue of products liability law, and that this is a matter for the legislatures, not the courts. The unconventional theories advanced in this case (and others) are totally without merit, a misuse of products liability laws. — Judge Buchmeyer, Patterson v. Gesellschaft, 1206 F.Supp. 1206, 1216 (N.D. Tex. 1985) |
