Come on guys, didn't you see that TV show where the guy cut his leg open and pulled out a full sized handgun! Public policy based on SyFy network offerings makes all the sense in the world.
Analogy fail. Bellows lost me when he started talking about what we did to Americans of Japanese decent in WWII. NONE of them were bad people. The Office of Naval Intelligence issued a report in which it concluded that the Japanese Americans on the West Coast did NOT pose a security threat. FDR's Solicitor General deliberately hid this report during the Korematsu case.
