Roy and I have just returned from Washington DC
where we allowed to sit in on a Congressional discussion on gun control, or the
lack of it. After the shocking attacks at Sandy Creek and many other states in
America, it looked a shoe-in for Congress to pass a bill to screen background
checks on all prospective gun owners. After a five minute debate, the common
sense legislation was unfortunately blocked by the senators who bowed to
financial pressure from the NRA (National Rifle Association) and gun lobbyists.

Senator Speedman |
Senator Tugg Speedman, from the backwaters of
Tennessee with a genetic lineage few would boast about or want to remember,
& with a less than distinguished reputation for shooting more vagrants in
downtown Tallahassie on a drunken Friday night than a Wild West, trigger happy
stagecoach Robber of the Year, stated that people should be issued guns,
licensed or otherwise, from their very first days at primary school, and should
be allowed to carry them absolutely anywhere at anytime. The Speedman family
are infamous for their forgettable, imitation colt 45 handguns made from
imported Sri Lankan recycled steel & notorious for their rusty barrels, and
the amount of genetically misconstrued offspring their clan have managed to
produce over the years mostly due to their predilection for incestuous
proliferation. When quizzed on whether they should be allowed to bear arms at
places like the senate gallery and on airplanes, Tugg drawled sardonically,
"Now you know, you'all tryin' to trick me now".
The NRA has spent upwards of 25 million dollars
to push their misinformation and fear mongering through gun lobbying and a
rollout of generous donations to various government departments. America is now
one of the less than safe countries on this crumbling planet called Earth, and
often targeted by a variety of gun toting madmen, a mishmash of nationalities
incorporating a spectrum of education or lack of it, and more often than not
instructed by God, and always a malevolent one at that. The fact is that most
American adolescents play truant at school for most of their juvenile years of
supposed education, experimenting with a shopping list of discovered & soon
to be discovered Amazonian & Peruvian herbal drugs while their mothers milk
the local priest, usually an Evangelist with his own TV channel, in the back of
the family stationwagon next to the school gym parking lot & inbetween
spinning classes. The bulk of constituents, at least the ones that had enough
discipline to actually attend high school or simply couldn't stomach ganja in
the first place, demanded that criminals and lunatics be screened to ensure a
safer population under the star spangled banner, but these same concerned
voices that elected them were then largely ignored or connivingly appeased. So
where to now for the bulk of concerned Americans, educated or not, and including
those inventors of the Tommy Gun, Bren Gun & Gattling Gun, to name but a
few weapons of mass destruction that have spewed from the predatory minds of
American colonialists bent on murder & carnage in the name of self-defense
& with guns designed not just to kill, but to annihilate every organ within
the human body with one short burst of the trigger...do their voices still fall
constantly on deaf ears?
Two of the most famous proponents for the use of
guns are the Twelvegage brothers, Billy Joe and Jimmy Bob, notorious for their
involvement in the seven hour gun battle with heavily armed members of the
Amish community in Pennsylvania a few years back, the latter armed mostly with
sycamore scythes, no less.

Needless to say, most of the hapless Amish were
simply evaporated by machine gun fire & experimantal biological weapons
(mostly from an old Vietnam consignment) in a matter of minutes...game over.
The brothers had an arsenal for which most African dictators would happily
exchange their village dormitory of ten wives each, never mind the entire
national GDP and the annual European food aid budget for feeding Africa's
starving millions, money perhaps better spent on shipments of condoms or the
building of family planning clinics... or castration clinics, for that matter.
The brothers were also great admirers of the ill-fated branch Davidians leader,
Vernon Wayne Howell aka David Koresh, who famously perished back in April '93
at the hands of the FBI in a hail of bullets & various experimental explosives
bought on the black market with the dissolution of the communist regime &
the emergence of Glasnost in the former Soviet Union, now known simply as
Putin's Russia.

Theses two sectarian racists, by-products of an inbred ancestry
that dates back to another epoch, have travelled the country to ensure the 2nd
ammendment from the Bill of Rights is upheld. The land of the free, did I
hear??!!!!!
Jesus Mr Author.
ReplyDeleteYou are starting to loose us loyal followers here. Dude, I've just nearly slit my goddam wrists! I thought this was supposed to be an "amusing diatribe" not a personal crusade about the wrongs of the western world!
Get the humor going pronto!
For E.G. Less ranting about the wrongs of the world that we are all trying to escape from, and more slap stick, original & clever humor!
Just a suggestion! use it, or don't!!!!
One more suggestion. google, and take note of the relationship between the word "verbose" or "verbosity" and Charles Dickens! It should help you to stop descriptive rambling!
Your ability/need to use big, elaborate words to describe something leads to poor story telling!
This latest diatribe, if submitted as your matric essay finals paper, would be lucky to score an E-!!
Don't give up though! Some people like Charles Dickens!!!
Yours Sincerely
Senator Tug Speedman
