That old axiom about the LIBERAL-WHO'S-BEEN-MUGGED-PHENOMENON again manifests in Ohio
THE OLD LIBERAL-WHO'S-BEEN-MUGGED PHENOMENON, again, manifests in
Ohio:
http://www.cleveland.com/news/plaindealer/phillip_morris/index.ssf?/base/opinion/1179218274175560.xml&coll=2&thispage=2
Excerpt:
"It's funny how a gun can instantly change your perspective on
things, make you wish you could rewrite history.
State Rep. Michael DeBose, a southside Cleveland Democrat, discovered
this lesson the night of May 1, when he thought he was going to die.
That's the night he wished he had that gun vote back. . . .
DeBose voted his conscience. He feared that CCW permits would lead
to a massive influx of new guns in the streets and a jump in gun
violence. He feared that Cleveland would become the O.K. Corral,
patrolled by legions of freshly minted permit holders.
"I was wrong," he said Friday.
"I'm going to get a permit and so is my wife.
"I've changed my mind. You need a way to protect yourself and your
family.
"I don't want to hurt anyone. But I never again want to be in the
position where I'm approached by someone with a gun and I don't have
one."
DeBose said he knows that a gun doesn't solve Cleveland's violence
problem; it's merely a street equalizer.
"There are too many people who are just evil and mean-spirited.
They will hurt you for no reason. If more people were packing guns, it
might serve as a deterrent.."

An axiom is a self evident truth. The above is lying
propaganda; about as far from an axiom as you can get! I have

CHARLESTON, W.Va.- A Wyoming County man who says he found a condom in
his iced tea glass last Mother's Day and lives in fear that he
contracted a disease from it is suing the Shoney's restaurant in Logan
and the company that operates it.
The lawsuit filed Thursday on behalf of James and Selena Bledsoe says
that upon discovering the condom James Bledsoe "immediately became
horribly ill, dry heaving and nearly vomiting at the table. He then
ran for the nearest restroom to vomit."
Named as defendants in the lawsuit, which was filed in circuit court
in Kanawha County, where restaurant franchisee ShoRest LLC is located,
are the restaurant manager, assistant manager and the server who
waited on the Bledsoes.
The lawsuit alleges that the Bledsoes, their two children and several
other family members were eating at the Logan restaurant last May 14
when James Bledsoe, 30, saw the unwrapped condom in his half-finished
drink.
When he returned from the bathroom, Bledsoe allegedly saw the
restaurant's assistant manager and several other employees, including
his server, laughing.
A call to ShoRest Chief Operating Officer Rory Smith was not
immediately returned on Friday.
The lawsuit alleges that the restaurant manager promised to comply
with Bledsoe's request to keep the glass and its contents so it could
be tested, but didn't.
"It's caused him (Bledsoe) a great deal of stress," Bledsoe's Beckley
lawyer, Stephen New, said Friday.
Initial tests for communicable diseases were negative, but Bledsoe
expects to be tested for the next seven years. He's been so worried,
the lawsuit says, that it's affected his relationships with his family
and caused him trouble sleeping and concentrating.
The lawsuit, which requests a jury trial, seeks an unspecified amount
in both punitive and compensatory damages.

And thus we see how resilient Americans actually are.
Now compare the reaction of New Yorkers on 9/11 to that of the Brits
on... well, I forget the date.

And for a miserable comparison, have a look at the quite shameful
overreaction of Australians (of which I happen to be one who didn't) to
the bombing in Bali.
Once this country had a British "stiff upper lip", now it seems to have
acquired an unhealthy case of US glass jaw, combined with a nasty case
of "headless chook syndrome".

That's one of the reasons I choose not to live there anymore. The Oz
