And Now, a Word from "The Lawgivers"

The South Dakota Senate has refused to consider legislation that would allow people to have guns on state university campuses.
Because, you know, they own you.

And here's my finalist nomination for the Newspeak Award:
"This bill was not to deny students the right to carry guns. It was to continue the policy we have, which is to let the Board of Regents set the policy..."
And the board's plan when the Red hour strikes?

Landru, guide us!

  2. David, I LOVE obscure Star Trek references. Good one! And sadly, very appropriate in this case.

  3. lol @ Kent. Been watching DVDS of that lately

    Of course the bill wasn't to deny the right to carry...that's what the CURRENT policy does. Why is it that there are 4 groups of people who need things dumbed down for them to understand? That would be children, the feeble minded, politicians, and reporters.
