The sad part is that the handwringers and crybullies are going to use this latest idiocy to churn up more idiot laws that don’t actually do anything to prevent idiocy but make life that much more burdensome to everyone else.

And, in the end, idiots can’t be protected from themselves anyway. Idiots are going to idiot.

One of my son's favorite aphorism is that when something is made idiot-proof, nature provides a better idiot.

This is sad, but idiocy cannot be effectively eradicated, only warned against.

There is no such thing as “idiot proof”. There is only “idiot resistant”.

The ingenuity of idiots knows no bounds.
