Listen carefully. You. Can't. Keep. Them. From. Getting. Guns.

There is an innocent middle class faith in this country that passing a law is equivalent to enforcing it. I'm not trying to be mean, but honestly, some laws cannot be enforced.

There is an equally innocent faith in the efficacy of passing laws against objects instead of against actions. But it ain't the bottle of whisky, it's the driving under the influence. The influence of anything: alcohol, cold medicine, or a high fever. Or a hot temper.

But it really would be nice to have a law against crime on Sundays so the cops could have a day off.
