Dear Editor fisks a letter in Fingernail polish ban...:
Today in the Columbia Daily Tribune there is this letter from someone who is scared shitless of big guns.Posted by Simon at October 13, 2004 03:51 AMThe ban on assault weapons expired not too long ago. Surprisingly, despite petitions from law-enforcement officials nationwide, our government has taken no steps toward re-enacting the ban. I think this is madness.No. Madness is when your wife and her mother combined have nearly 100 different types of fingernail polish. When they are together having a mother-daughter bonding moment, the fumes that are unleashed are quite dangerous. "I think this is madness." I was dizzy the last time they were together painting their toenails. I think my cat stopped pooping in the litter box from inhaling too many fumes from this extremely dangerous product.There can be no pretending the gun can be called a "defensive" weapon. It can fire 600 rounds per minute, which is the equivalent of 10 rounds per second. A single armed man could shred an opponent or cut down an entire crowd of people.Wanna bet? Try walking into someone's house in the middle of the night. Hear the sound of the magazine locking into place...and see if you don't shit your pants. I guarantee you that "600 rounds a minute" would scare the pants off a would-be intruder. But that is besides the point.
i think that youre the funniest person but i don't think that fingernail polish is that dangerous yes i think having 100 diffrent types is quite abit cause i don't even have that much i am 15 years of age and i have like maybe 10-15 diffrent types but that is hardly likly. i do think the cat has a problem when it dosent get to go crap in the litter box any more. i thnk you need to save the poor pussy and get it outta there. i think it is affecting the cat more than it is you guys.
