"As a whole, street thugs and other criminal opportunists are cowards. They fear an armed populace."

As do many legislators in this country. I wonder why that is? Surely they don't fit in the same category as cowardly street thugs and criminal opportunists, do they?

(An old man living in a cave once said, if a question is worded properly it contained the answer.) ;>

According to some historical figures:

"There is no distinctly native American criminal class... save Congress."

"Suppose you were an idiot. And suppose you were a member of Congress. But I repeat myself."
--Mark Twain

And who would certainly know better than most anyone?

"I have come to the conclusion that one useless man is a disgrace, two men are called a Law Firm, and three or more are called a Congress."
-- John Adams
