Transcript:
Joe: Do you know where your sister is, Kate? Kate: She went outside. Joe: Oh? What's she doing out there? Kate: She said something about field-testing her plan to tweak the wording of the Second Amendment. Danae: ... You're welcome!
Interestingly the strip actually does a good job of illustrating the need for the 2nd Amendment. The bears would be defenseless without a guarantee of access to arms.
Nice try with the Canada lies again – Canada is not loaded with guns, you can’t even take a gun across the border if you have a permit to own it in the states.
Somehow I would feel safer if it were the animals that had the guns – they only kill for food – we do it for pleasure and a whole host of other atrocities.
“Somehow I would feel safer if it were the animals that had the guns – they only kill for food – we do it for pleasure and a whole host of other atrocities.”
Uh, animals will kill for something other than for food. They will also kill if they feel they or their offspring are threatened. You know, the whole “beware the mama bear” thing?
Some animals, cutie. Some will fight like that. Some leave their eggs buried in hills and wish them luck when they hatch. So even eat their young if the circumstances are right. Please don’t put maternal instincts on ALL of them.
Indeed, Dry, Mr. Moore and Ms. Maddow enjoy an enviable record for credibility. Of do you have hard evidence to the contrary? There’s a distinct difference between disagreeing with someone’s politics and disproving what they say.
If you can document instances in which these two have either knowingly or carelessly misrepresented the facts, then by all means let’s have the evidence. Otherwise I suggest you reserve your remarks for places like Townhall and The Blaze, where you’ll be applauded without regard to the truth,.

All for a six pack of Bear whizz beer.
autumnfire1957 almost 14 years ago
HEY! NO ONE calls Danae “Whacko”! “Deranged” maybe, but not “Whacko”.
Potrzebie almost 14 years ago
Aren’t these Wiley’s bears that usually resort to trickery to get their meals?
peter0423 almost 14 years ago
Danae *is* the meal. :)
Allan CB Premium Member almost 14 years ago

TheDOCTOR almost 14 years ago
……and Danae was never * urp * seen again.
thirdguy almost 14 years ago
If they had the right to carry concealed weapons, then we could assume that all bears are dangerous!
odeliasimone almost 14 years ago
Bears already have bare arms!!!
hitman4cookies almost 14 years ago
The right to arm bears!
MatureCanadian almost 14 years ago
Wiley, you’ve done it again! Fabulous premise, if it were only the truth. Love the look on the bears faces.
ChazNCenTex almost 14 years ago
So that old saying is wrong, it should be “……does a bear SHOOT in the woods?”
peter0423 almost 14 years ago
pdenman: And the British live in a country that’s one bad week away from becoming a police state. There are trade-offs everywhere.
Barbaratoo almost 14 years ago
I love “tweaking.” As a woman of a certain age, I simply want the right to “bare” arms! (But like everything else in life, I have to work for it!)
DrWimsey almost 14 years ago
“But are they well regulated?” Hopefully only as a militia: we don’t want to stop bear economy from running itself.
Justice22 almost 14 years ago
It is legal to own hunting arms in he U. K.
sleepeeg3 almost 14 years ago
Mmm… etc: http://www.bustedtees.com/secondamendment I like Wiley’s bears, though.
annamargaret1866 almost 14 years ago
FishStix, she went to a gun show in Arizona, even told the seller she couldn’t pass a background check. (I’m referring to Bloomberg’s investigation.)
gjsjr41 almost 14 years ago
I believe in gun control. I use both hands.
wsedrel Premium Member almost 14 years ago

But are they well regulated?I think bears get enough roughage in their diets.
Dtroutma almost 14 years ago
Eat one small child every day and they’ll be “well regulated”.

I thought Goodell said the players, including the Bears would be suspended for carrying weapons? (Sorry Super Bowl and all that.)
freeholder1 almost 14 years ago
With their preposterous conceal and carry requirements, this is actually what happens in Florida.
freeholder1 almost 14 years ago
So if we see one wearing human lined gloves, we’ll know they figured it out.
Actually, raccoons would be better since they have opposable thumbs and could actually shoot one. (But it would ruin the pun.)
Coyoty Premium Member almost 14 years ago
I want the right to armchairs.
Dry and Dusty Premium Member over 13 years ago
Michael Moore and Rachel Maddow? Wow that’s credibility for ya!
Biltil Premium Member over 13 years ago
I’m glad Danae gave the guns to the bears. The thought of her possessing them herself is frightening.
tsouthworth over 13 years ago
Nah, they aren’t drunk enough!
arjisme over 13 years ago
Cute joke! The right to arm bears! LOL!!
