What He SHOULD Have Done

Houston Texans reserve running back Tony Hollings appeared in court today to face a gun charge.

Hollings, 24, was arrested in Houston on Jan. 3 and charged with unlawfully carrying a gun with a suspended driver's license. Hollings was stopped for speeding.
See, he should have had an armed escort and no license, and actually gotten in to an accident. Then he wouldn't have been arrested.

Can I Ignore the Law, Too?

An Open Inquiry to Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger

Dear Governor,

You have been violating California law by riding a motorcycle without a license.

You've been doing this for years, and say you just never thought about it? Yeah, that's pretty believable. It's not like there's any established pattern that would make us doubt your word--and we'll just forget about the attempted weasel-wording from your flack about sidecars and Class C licenses...

So tell me, Governor--am I free to ignore laws, too? I see you're a big supporter of citizen disarmament. Unfortunately, unlike you, when we ordinary Californians go out, we don't take a "protective detail" of taxpayer-funded armed CHP officers with us.

So if any of us "never really applied" to register what the state of California classifies as an "assault weapon" or a .50 BMG rifle, can we just shrug it off if we get caught, and pledge to get a license in the future?

Understand this is all just hypothetical--the last time I posed a similar exercise in tongue-in-cheek comparative logic, San Francisco authorities launched a police investigation against me.

I wouldn't want that to happen again--for simply asking someone in authority who is selectively enforcing and ignoring laws that suit their purposes--if I can expect the same privileges and immunities they claim entitlement to.

Suggestion to Anyone Who Would Stop Me From Carrying a Gun to a Fun Outing

Get bent.

It's not my fault some armed morons showed up and you were unprepared to do anything about it.

Why should I be put in the same helpless position you were, and compromise my safety, or that of my family, due to your pathetic hoplophobia?

Nobody Fisks Like The Smallest Minority

You can stick a fork in Kevin Fagin. He's done.

But I wouldn't count on him being intellectually honest enough to admit it.
