-Caveat Lector- To Idiocy & Beyond Not content with trying to control real guns, some anti-rights activists continue to put more and more pressure on fake and toy guns. The city of Akron, Ohio, now wants to make it illegal for stores to sell replica or toy guns, apparently because a style of fake gun that is really a cigarette lighter looks very similar to a real firearm. Rather than doing the obvious and attempting to somehow restrict that particular type of cigarette lighter (which is just as stupid - Tony), the Akron City Council is considering banning the sale of any replica or toy version of a pistol, revolver, shotgun, rifle, machine gun or any other firearm. To date, there have been no reports from city officials concerning how many people were killed in Akron with toy or replica guns over the past year. And councilmen are not making public estimates on how many lives they expect to save from banning the sale of "evil" toy guns typically used by kids to do something some politicians apparently have forgotten about - play! Fortunately, any kid with half a brain can make a great toy pistol out of Legos. Just take four or five of the little yellow square pieces, put them together one on top of the other, then stick them on the bottom of one of the long green pieces. Stay tuned next month for a report on Akron's proposed Lego ban.
