2. You and your baby daughter are awakened in the middle of the night by your estranged, abusive ex-husband.

E. Are outdated concepts by “Eurocentric” professors and “Uncle Toms.”
6. Every dictator always disarms his victims, before beginning to annihilate freedom loving people. The reason for this is because:
A. Guns commit crimes, accidents, and suicides. In their spare time guns also run marathons and write books.
B. The latest studies funded by “public-interest” (i.e., left-wing) groups prove that guns cause crime–and global warming too! Some studies indicate the guns also cause hurricanes and earthquakes.

D. This will make the folks at the United Nations happy, so long as the guns are turned over to a “peacekeeper” like Arafat.
