Default Store Bans Pressure Cookers, Melted Guns Turned Into "Peace Bricks"

Out of "respect for the Boston bombing victims", Cookware retailer store Williams-Sonoma has stopped selling pressure cookers. In Seattle, the mayor will have the over 700 buy-back guns melted down and molded into steel bricks with "anti gun violence" messages on them and put in parks and other places in the city.
In the meantime the Ca. state legislature will (or probably will) introduce a bill saying that when you pass gas, the air must be filled with lolly pops and butterflies.

If you hit someone in the head with a peace brick, is it considered "gun violence"?

When is W&S going to eliminate cutlery from its catalog, out of respect for the countless victims of knifings, slashings, and stabbings?

***!!! Dealerships should stop selling cars. Bed Bath and Beyond should stop selling knives. Lowes and other home improvement stores should stop selling nails, hammers, saws, and in fact should just close down.

This is turning into some twisted Mikey Mouse $&*+

Perhaps they should melt guns into head stones to be used for those unable to properly defend themselves against violent crime.

How in the hell am I going to make my world famous, pressure cooker, tofu bean-curd soufflé, which by the way, is served on a bed of organic virgin field greens.

Well, I feel safer! All of you insensitive brutes should be ashamed of yourselves!

(I did like the "hitting someone with a peace brick" idea, though)

Let's see Williams-Sonoma, no skin off my nose. Peace bricks, same thing. Pass gass, I never do it, but my cat sometimes does.

If you hit an anti-gunner it's called "natural selection".

I guess some of those bricks will be blued, some nickeled, and some stainless...perhaps a few parkerized.

Umm, You can buy 5 different pressure cookers from Williams Sonoma online. Just checked. The ban must be local.

Right at the end the anti-gun 'artist' says "who do you think you have the right to kill? Because that's what guns do, they kill people. So who do you have the moral right to kill?"

I wonder how fast he could answer that question himself if one of his kids were being raped or his wife was being stabbed while he stood and watched.

Life is so rosy until it slaps you in the face. Be prepared.

On your first point, never underestimate the stupidity factor!

And as far as the souffle, Sounds........sensuous......

How many pressure cookers do they sell? I just say my first one 2-3 years ago. Maybe they write it off as a loss, or charitable deduction some how.
