Nebraska to Demonstrate Newton's Third Law

You'll soon be seeing the signs-— a universal red circle with a slash across a handgun- on the doors of businesses and other buildings across the state.

The message: No guns here.
And as we all learned in elementary school science class when they introduced us to physics:
For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.

Here's a question, if you go into one of these stores that is so marked and try to rob it but the owner has a gun and stops you, can you sue him? False advertising maybe? Fraudulant breach of trust?

I really need to go out and get a photoshop program. That sign is crying out for chopping.

"The management and owners of this property have made a conscious decision to provide a free fire zone for all goblins and other assorted unsavory characters. Law abiding citizens are invited to enter at their own risk"

Ahah! You gave me an idea, I tried Firefox, and the captcha works just fine... It is probably the fault of the security settings I have on IE - I will check.

Regardless, I took JR's comment as something of a challenge, and this was the end result: http://www.wallsofthecity.net/2006/11/boy_was_i_bored.html Not exactly the same message, but close enough.

Oh, and if you ever want to escape the purgatory of Blogger.com, drop me a line, and I will see what I can do about helping you out ;).
