Meanwhile, Across the Pond in Sarah Brady Paradise...

Teachers leave boy, 5, stranded in tree because of health and safety (then report passer-by who helped him down to police) [More]
Right then.

In case anyone is wondering why I haven't said anything yet about the Cumbria shooting, I'm wrapping up a column this afternoon on that for my "Rights Watch" submission to GUNS Magazine. I needed to wait for some pertinent information to be reported and now have what I need to finish the article.

Unbefrickin'lievable! And they still had the gall to say someone should contact the staff through the receptionist, and the staff would be happy to help? This, after it was clear that the staff WASN"T going to help this boy?

No wonder we defeated the Redcoats in the Revolution!

This is exactly what they want to make of us.

It wouldn't have been "inappropriate" if she had stomped the asses into a mudhole and then kicked it dry. The school and the cops were the inappropriate ones. They all need to be jailed. Or gaoled as they say in not so jolly England.

About the mad cabbie, who used a shotgun, Diane Sawyer of ABC News said: "England, where handguns are banned and murder is rare." (And so are opportunities for self-defense.)
And where the government considers -- or did they do it? -- requiring that pub mugs be made of PLASTIC so they can't be used as weapons in a tavern brawl. There are still chairs, however. Beanbags, anyone?
