It was widely reported in the press yesterday that violent and property
crimes are at a 30 year low nationwide.
So how come none of the media pundits and talking heads drew the obvious
connection between a plunging crime rate and the growth of firearm
ownership, including most states now licensing law abiding citizens to carry
concealed.
I guarantee you they would have been beating the drum if the numbers had
been the otherway!

The problem with defending the purity of the English language is that
English is about as pure as a cribhouse whore. We don't just borrow words;
on occasion, English has pursued other languages down alleyways to beat
them unconscious and rifle their pockets for new vocabulary.
