17th April 2013 - Washington DC


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??!!!!!

    You 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
