It's in the Constitution. Sort of.

UPDATE: While you have a Constitutional right to manufacture, keep, and bear do-it-yourself potato launchers, you also have an ethical responsibility to practice due diligence.
If I had a potato launcher...I'd make somebody pay... for some potatoes, so I could safely bombard a paper target.
ReplyDeleteRemember that Bruce Cockburn song (that liberals liked so much in the 1980s)? It wasn't very civil! But then "Cockburn" isn't a very civil name. But Bruce Cockburn is Canadian. Factor that into your analysis.
Perhaps you could do a post on the subject of potatoes in Canada. I've been wondering about potatoes in Canada, and I would Google that for myself but then I couldn't post the link without fear of Blogger flagging this comment as spam.
Also, perhaps you could post a recipe for Spam and potatoes. I think that might be good.
Hey, I see Bruce Cockburn sang that song for the Canadian troops in Afghanistan rather recently and when he finished singing it some one handed him an actual rocket launcher.
ReplyDeleteYou being a meat and potatoes kinda girl, I'm not surprised you'd like a post on Spam and potatoes. I'll see what I can find.

ReplyDeleteI mentioned that blistering Cockburn song just a few weeks ago on the Althouse blog with a video link for those unfamiliar: link. Thank you for the frontpaging.

As I recall they actually used to stand in the aisles, swaying and chanting along.
Bic lighter torches?
ReplyDeleteSo, we can't ban potato launchers or even potatoes, but what's to stop us from going after Ronsen lighter fluid?
ReplyDeleteYeah. Or undocumented Canadians.
ReplyDelete"As I recall they actually used to stand in the aisles, swaying and chanting along."
ReplyDeleteEh, peace and love hippie types did the same thing for that damnable "buy the world a Coke" song.
