Latest Title: A bill to reduce violence and protect the citizens of the United States.

Ya don't say, a bill to reduce violence AND protect the citizens of the United States. Well shiiiit, and here I thought they weren't smart! They're introducing a bill that will single handedly REDUCE violence AND protect citizens by merely PASSING it.


What's that you say. It's not what the title says? Oh...I bet they meant the United States of Mexico...

On a more serious note, a Border Patrol agent asked me what my citizenship was the other day driving home from campus,

Me: "US"
Him: "Which one?"
Me: "America, FUCK YEA!"
Him: "Okay, just making sure because there actually is a United States of Mexico and we have to ask for clarification now."





Disclaimer: That conversation may or may not have included the words "FUCK YEA!", but the conversation actually did happen.

My idea of protecting the citizens is by owning a gun. Probably irrational way to think, but hey who's thinking with these bills anyway.

Jim, now I feel I must humbly remind you what you've reminded others of... Stop thinking rationally! That is not allowed, especially in any capacity in, around, near, or in reference to the Congress of these United States!
