News Flash - April 20th

BOSTON - Responding to an urgent call from the governor of
Massachusetts, regular army and air-force units this morning descended
on the town of Lexington with M1 tanks, Apache and Blackhawk
helicopters, and a small squadron of close-support fixed wing aircraft.
The sudden, pre-dawn attack met with no effective resistance; and the
infantry that followed later in the morning completed "mopping up"
operations with astonishing speed and efficiency. A spokesman for the
military later said that the former town of Lexington, now little more
than smoking rubble, should be cool enough to bulldoze and bury within
just a few days. He also hinted that there may have been a survivor or
two among the townspeople; but that's not yet been confirmed.

At issue in this conflict is the right of civilians to keep and bear
arms. Asked for comment, the commander of the military forces would
only say that he's reluctant to discuss the political issues involved,
and prefers to concern himself with only practical matters. He said
that "Unless these civilians are willing and able to keep and bear
tanks, aircraft, and the massive pool of manpower and skill that it
takes to use those things, their 'rights' are more theoretical than
useful. If people spent as much attention to cleaning and maintaining
their voting habits and their government, rather than their rifles,
things like this might not have to happen."
