As I was writing yesterday's post I knew that I would take some heat from
the socialists still among us, and I was right. And quite naturally, all the folks
who flamed me left their screeds unsigned, always the mark of a coward in
my book.

When you want to criticize someone you should have the courage to affix
your name to your comments, or leave them unsaid. Some long standing
list members have criticized me for one or another of my points of view, and
they had the courage of their convictions, signing their name.

I'm not one of those people who shys away from criticism, because I ain't
always right, and another point of view is always welcome, even if I don't share
it. Just to give you an idea of some of yesterday's critiques, I'll share the most literate of the bunch.

"You are a sick, close-minded idiot! And you've lost just another customer who
will spread the word to others! I hope you shock your ugly little self with one of your tasers. Both you and that white trash Ted Nugent!"

Thanks for sharing the love friend, and pass some of that peace-loving tofu on.

As I said, this was the most literate comment of the bunch.

I'm going to take ten bucks and get a giant cheesesteak somewhere,
because meat, and lots of it, mellows me out.

Moving on to more important things, a young woman foiled a Crim with her personal alarm and cowboy boots last week in South Carolina. She was
walking to her car when a Crim popped up and told her to give him the keys.
She set off her personal alarm, and the mook was completely baffled by the sound.

She then planted a good swift kick into his stash box, which left him in a sort
of hunchback position with his eyes crossed. She got in the car and grabbed
her Wildfire pepper spray, but the Crim did a sort of nutty dance across the parking lot, and out of her view.

The Crim probably caught a ride to the Michael Moore Free Clinic as soon as
he was out of sight. He'll be there for months waiting for treatment, so at least he'll be off the streets.

I was just thinking that maybe I should have a Michael Moore contest.

Contestants can guess his weight, body fat, cholesterol level, and how many
of his arteries are clogged. I may give away a taser with a lifelike poster of
Sean Penn.

It's still in the idea stage.

Stay aware, alert, and have a plan.
