Wisdom from the East

The NRA should tell the secret service and McCain to piss off. A couple of months ago, the Sikhs turned down their chance to visit the Pope because the secret service wouldn't let them in with their Kirpaans - a little dagger. Best line: “We cannot undermine the rights and freedoms of religion in the name of security.”That's what I'm saying.

Yes, exactly right. Thanks for reminding us.

  1. I remember hearing of some Asian potentate who had the door of his public audience chamber made so low that visitors were forced to enter on their hands and knees.
    On British ambassador did so -- backwards, presenting the seat of his pants to His Eminence!

  2. Ya know, Sean Connery -- Bond, James Bond -- is a big anti-gun agitator. He was HIGHLY put out when he came to some Washington event in his traditional Scottish regalia and was not allowed to carry his skian dubh -- the small dagger worn in the sock. Oh, an international incident.
