IF THE GOVERNMENT IS SO INTENT ON FORCING ITS CITIZENS,
Why not try mandatory gun ownership?

From the good Doctor Zero, Hot Air, Guns Or Butter:

Some 15,000 Americans died last year because they didn’t have it. As many as five million more experienced a significant reduction in their quality of life, including mental and emotional trauma as well as diminished health, without it. Although large majorities of those Americans fortunate enough to have it are satisfied with what they have, many of the poor who need it most desperately simply cannot afford it. The government already exercises a great deal of control over it. Lives could be saved if we made its purchase mandatory, and subsidized those of limited means, to make ownership universal.

No, not health care. Guns.

Dr. Z hammers the point with wave upon wave of facts that are inconvenient to the gun control zombies. Along the way, he weaves a few other themes into a wonderful mosaic of gun rights, limited government and individual choice.

Bravo!
