Losing your life, losing an election

To Obama, it's all the same.

If I read this correctly, our President compared soldiers losing their lives to an insane, fanatical Muslim to Democratic Representatives losing an election over their vote on the health care bill.

It doesn't get any more crass and asinine than that.

Leave it to the BBC

The BBC has finally run an article that identifies a benefit of gun control. This result if probably not generalizable, but the story is both ironic and funny. My annotated summary is below.
  1. India forces residents of Kashmir to turn in their weapons.

  2. "Following the outbreak of the insurgency, people had to hand in their weapons to police - which put a halt to poaching."

  3. The bear population in Kashmir increases.

  4. "Wildlife experts say the conflict in Kashmir has actually resulted in an increase in the population of bears and leopards."

  5. A bear kills two terrorists that it discovers in it's den.
    "A bear killed two militants after discovering them in its den in Indian-administered Kashmir, police say."

You just can't make this stuff up. LOL!
