She was dressed in orange, and he claimed he thought she was a deer. I've never seen an orange deer, and never had the police.

There are lots of folks out here with color blindness and others out there that are legally blind. That's right, legally blind and carrying rifles. There is no vision test required to get a hunting license. I know of a man who is kind of a gun nut and hunts with a .30-06 and is on SSI disability because of his very poor vision. Can't get a drivers license.


Patriotism (and religion) is the last refuge of a scoundrel.
