Transcript:
Joe: Do you know where your sister is, Kate? Kate: She went outside. Joe: Oh? What's she doing out there? Kate: She said something about field-testing her plan to tweak the wording of the Second Amendment. Danae: ... You're welcome!
I love “tweaking.” As a woman of a certain age, I simply want the right to “bare” arms! (But like everything else in life, I have to work for it!)
FishStix, she went to a gun show in Arizona, even told the seller she couldn’t pass a background check. (I’m referring to Bloomberg’s investigation.)
Interestingly the strip actually does a good job of illustrating the need for the 2nd Amendment. The bears would be defenseless without a guarantee of access to arms.
Nice try with the Canada lies again – Canada is not loaded with guns, you can’t even take a gun across the border if you have a permit to own it in the states.
Somehow I would feel safer if it were the animals that had the guns – they only kill for food – we do it for pleasure and a whole host of other atrocities.
“Somehow I would feel safer if it were the animals that had the guns – they only kill for food – we do it for pleasure and a whole host of other atrocities.”
Uh, animals will kill for something other than for food. They will also kill if they feel they or their offspring are threatened. You know, the whole “beware the mama bear” thing?
Some animals, cutie. Some will fight like that. Some leave their eggs buried in hills and wish them luck when they hatch. So even eat their young if the circumstances are right. Please don’t put maternal instincts on ALL of them.
Indeed, Dry, Mr. Moore and Ms. Maddow enjoy an enviable record for credibility. Of do you have hard evidence to the contrary? There’s a distinct difference between disagreeing with someone’s politics and disproving what they say.
If you can document instances in which these two have either knowingly or carelessly misrepresented the facts, then by all means let’s have the evidence. Otherwise I suggest you reserve your remarks for places like Townhall and The Blaze, where you’ll be applauded without regard to the truth,.

All for a six pack of Bear whizz beer.
autumnfire1957 about 14 years ago
HEY! NO ONE calls Danae “Whacko”! “Deranged” maybe, but not “Whacko”.
Potrzebie about 14 years ago
Aren’t these Wiley’s bears that usually resort to trickery to get their meals?
peter0423 about 14 years ago
Danae *is* the meal. :)
Allan CB Premium Member about 14 years ago

TheDOCTOR about 14 years ago
……and Danae was never * urp * seen again.
thirdguy about 14 years ago
If they had the right to carry concealed weapons, then we could assume that all bears are dangerous!
odeliasimone about 14 years ago
Bears already have bare arms!!!
hitman4cookies about 14 years ago
The right to arm bears!
MatureCanadian about 14 years ago
Wiley, you’ve done it again! Fabulous premise, if it were only the truth. Love the look on the bears faces.
ChazNCenTex about 14 years ago
So that old saying is wrong, it should be “……does a bear SHOOT in the woods?”
peter0423 about 14 years ago
pdenman: And the British live in a country that’s one bad week away from becoming a police state. There are trade-offs everywhere.

DrWimsey about 14 years ago
“But are they well regulated?” Hopefully only as a militia: we don’t want to stop bear economy from running itself.
Justice22 about 14 years ago
It is legal to own hunting arms in he U. K.

But are they well regulated?I think bears get enough roughage in their diets.
Dtroutma about 14 years ago
Eat one small child every day and they’ll be “well regulated”.
freeholder1 about 14 years ago
I thought Goodell said the players, including the Bears would be suspended for carrying weapons? (Sorry Super Bowl and all that.)
freeholder1 about 14 years ago
With their preposterous conceal and carry requirements, this is actually what happens in Florida.
freeholder1 about 14 years ago
So if we see one wearing human lined gloves, we’ll know they figured it out.
Actually, raccoons would be better since they have opposable thumbs and could actually shoot one. (But it would ruin the pun.)
Coyoty Premium Member about 14 years ago
I want the right to armchairs.
Dry and Dusty Premium Member about 14 years ago
Michael Moore and Rachel Maddow? Wow that’s credibility for ya!
Biltil Premium Member about 14 years ago
I’m glad Danae gave the guns to the bears. The thought of her possessing them herself is frightening.
tsouthworth about 14 years ago
Nah, they aren’t drunk enough!
arjisme about 14 years ago
Cute joke! The right to arm bears! LOL!!
