Daniel Boone could not carry his rifle around in Boonesborough KY – it was illegal …the Gunfight at the OK Corral started because one of the Clanton’s brought a gun into town illegally…television and movies have given us a mistaken image, people didn’t walk around with guns, if a cowboy was lucky enough to own a gun, at the time about 6 months wages, he kept it wrapped in oilcloth in his saddlebag, dust and sand could cause a misfire …remember Rio Bravo? Dean Martin collecting guns as cowpokes entered town? that’s how it really was
Our founding fathers never imagined that the right to bear arms would mean that military weapons would fall under those words two hundred plus years later!

A reduced population would help reduce climate change, but this way shown here would leave the wrong people…

The Supreme Court needs to become a recurring character; they make Barney look like a moderate.

Gene Weingarten needs to get back to writing opinion pieces—-he obviously has a lot of things he wants to say.

Honestly, I’m just glad this comic isn’t about Horace.
