You go to try to set him straight.

He calls for a bunch of his friends.

They mean to do  you harm.  Lots and lots of it.  Eight teenagers and twentysomethings, jacked up on misplaced testosterone.

What do you do?

Saw an article today that clearly can't be true.

A Minnetonka gun shop on Excelsior and Co. Rd. 4 was burglarized early Monday morning and dozens of weapons are now missing.

Burglars stole several different kinds of handguns, and police are now on edge.

Police say the burglars knew what they were doing and exactly what they wanted. They hit the Glen Lake Gun Shop around dawn, hours before employees arrived, and disarmed the store’s sophisticated security system.

The reason I know this to be false is because we have lots and lots of gun control laws. Those laws are clearly designed to keep firearms out of the hands of criminals. This clearly false news article means that criminals didn't care what the law said and stole guns in violation of said laws. Which is just silly, because if that were true it would mean that gun control laws are silly and pointless, because they really only stand in the way of the law abiding citizen.

There are many other states starting to look at banning smoking in bars and restaurants.

I’m proud to live in a state that chose health and I hope that our progress helps other states make that commitment as well.

One person's benefits, though, are another person's costs:

I don't watch the Sopranos, but I get this:


An ad ran yesterday in the StarTribune from the Minnesotans for Employee Freedom, for which I am a member of its steering committee. The ads have drawn some attention from the press this week as the first issue ad in Minnesota.

If anyone wondered why the unions have pressed so hard for the EFCA bill, known better as Card Check, maybe the SEIU’s status can explain a few things.  The massive union has long played politics, and plans to spend as much as $85 million in the upcoming election.  However, the union finds itself a little short on funding its pension funds while at the same time attacking the investment firm that handles its accounts:
