An airport, a mall, a school, etc. etc., and so on, and so forth, and you know exactly what Im talking about... and you know the only response that gets acted on when such things happen: we arm ourselves further. Post the LAX-killing of a TSA employee, the call is going out to arm TSA employees in airports. Great! Andy Borowitz catches the pure, idiotic insanity of all this in his latest satiric post. Tom A new study released today indicates that Americans are safe from the threat of gun violence except in schools, malls, airports, movie theatres, workplaces, streets, and their own homes. Also: highways, turnpikes, libraries, places of worship, parks, universities, restaurants, post offices, and cars. Plus: driveways, garages, gyms, stores, military bases—and a host of other buildings, structures, and sites. National Rifle Association C.E.O. Wayne LaPierre applauded the study, saying that it reinforced his organization’s long-held position that the United States does not need additional gun laws. This study makes it abundantly clear that Americans are in no danger of gun violence except in these isolated four hundred and thirteen places, he said. He added that he hoped that the study would spark a conversation about the root cause of mass shootings: people who recklessly show up at places where they could be shot at.”
