COMMENT OF THE DAY: Aww man, did you hafta drag the teddy bears into this!?

From: http://www.torontosun.com/2012/09/10/toronto-bullet-ban-shot-down

The executive committee at Toronto City Hall has decided not to debate Councillor Adam Vaughan’s proposed bullet ban, deciding to defer it indefinitely.  This had one commentor remarking on Vaughan’s glum visage in the photograph accompanying the Toronto Sun story on the subject, which somehow devolved into a discussion of the dangerousness of stuffed animals…

Some of these comments were amusing, but let’s get serious: stuffed animals don’t kill people, bullets do.  At the very least, it would take a great deal of concerted effort to smother someone with a teddy bear, whereas any lazy bastard with a loaded gun could easily end someone’s life with a quick squeeze of the trigger.  Come to think of it, you could probably kill someone with a plastic bag more easily than with a stuffed animal.  (Weren’t all bags supposed to be banned by now, anyways?)
