We're Doomed!
My pleasure this morning at the announcement of the Supreme Court's decision in the Heller case — that there is in fact an individual, not collective, right to own guns — is soured by a correlating announcement from Spain: that, like humans, Great Apes now also have equal rights to life and liberty.
No good can come of this, I tell you. It's only a matter of time until some court somewhere decides Great Apes also have all the rest of the same legal rights as humans, and once the gorillas get their hands on automatic weapons, well, we all know where that leads.
So teach your children. Start rehearsing it now. Some day being able to speak this phrase may save your, or theirs, or their great-grandchildren's, lives.
"TAKE YOUR STINKING PAWS OFF ME, YOU DAMNED DIRTY APE!"
