I already know tomorrow's right-wing talking point:

"Liberals use these kinds of tragic accidents to further their agenda. Liberal gun control advocates just love it when these things happen. They can't help but cheer when someone is critically hurt with a gun."

These things write themselves. Cheney shoots a guy in the face = liberals bad. Yawn.

So two reasonable, consenting adults undertook an activity with an acknowledged risk factor, were prepared for it, and resolved it amicably.

What's the problem?

Well, I for one wouldn't want to restrict Cheney from participating in an activity where he might get blasted with a shotgun. So there's no problem on that front.

I guess my main beef is the lack of retaliation by Cheney's hunting companion. Maybe he'd then have some idea of what war is like and wouldn't be so quick to send young soldiers to die.

You've convinced me. Let's outlaw rock climbing, skydiving, white-water rafting, hiking, martial arts, children's playgrounds, and cutlery. I don't know how I ever lived without laws to protect me from accidents.

Nope, still pro-gun. Or to put another way pro-constitution, or pro-founding fathers.

Should we make it illegal to walk across the street as well?

Cheney is pretty frail. If you clap your hands together fairly hard, he would probably have a heart attack. So, I doubt he could kill anyone without a gun.

I do get your point, though. Gunplay amongst Republicans should be allowed and even encouraged.

DO you really think that killing our president would stop his policies from being implemented? In fact it would make it more likely.

I find it equally dubious to be hoping and fantasing about Bush being shot. Thought you were against those that were "pro-violence"?

This isn't funny. Looks like the Bush administration has decided to get *really* tough on trial lawyers.

Re: Plane crashes into California home, 2 dead.
 

At Least 2 Dead As Plane Hits Calif. House
By DON THOMPSON, Associated Press Writer
5 hours ago

ROSEVILLE, Calif. - A single-engine plane that appeared to have been performing an aerobatic stunt lost control and crashed into a suburban home Sunday, killing at least two people and sparking a fire that gutted the house, police said.

The crash left a gaping, smoldering hole in the two-story house it directly hit and set fire to an adjacent house, damaging the garage and attic, said Roseville Fire Marshall Dennis Mathisen. One body was visible in the wreckage.

Darn, he missed.

The coup has failed.

This was just a preemptive accident.

I wonder if the fake cowbow scuffed his boots that he bought from L.L. Bean.

One last thing, I wonder how many drinks Mr. Cheney had?

He probably would've learned that 'fire' comes after 'ready' and 'aim' if he didn't dodge the draft 5 times.

You''ll be shooting blanks with this one. It is not pertinent to the gun issue, as such.

But I can't help thinking that the lawyer who got shot by Cheney had an opportunity to shoot back in self defense. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
