Okay, I googled and googled and here's what I came up with...

So... you're saying that explosives don't kill (or maim) American troops.... cellphones do?

Okay, so.... I guess we shouldn't be trying to interdict shipments of explosives to the Taliban and A.Q. Let 'em have all they want.... just don't let 'em have a phone!

Wait... I get it. You're saying that even IF we kept all guns and explosives out of their hands (and cellphones,) they would STILL kill just as many of our troops by flinging FAX machines at them!

On a side note... I'm pretty sure that the last brilliant thought that passed thru Franklin's head before he died was.... an offset printing press. LOL.

So it's ok to take the means to defend myself and family away but we can't even consider limits on "speech" such as movies/vidio games/music???
Thats the take I'm getting from a lot of libs and tell ya the truth I'm getting pretty damn sick of it!
