I spied this strip in the free paper The San Francisco Herald last weekend, during the height of the so-called "peace protests."

FINALLY! A SF comic strip that GETS it!

Just more proof that the cutting-edge ideas today come from the RIGHT!

wow, amazingly perceptive

[Arkinsaw]

The cartoonist will get run out of town. He shouldn't expect to get invited to many parties.

[Rocko]

Good stuff.

So far as I can tell, it's a comic strip about a guy who wants to machine gun people for panhandling. Wow, that sure is a great comic strip...

[billorites]

That was one helluva rant!

[Damocles]

hmmmmm....OK.

"Today we're going to discuss the United Nations, so pull up a quagmire and sit down."

"The U.N. is a convocation of delegates who love Humanity but hate people. It is that greedy orphan the world abandoned on America's doorstep which found itself ideally situated as the sphincter of Manhattan Island. The U.N. functions primarily as an academy founded to promote the . . . unmanly - - - art of diplomacy."

What is amazing about that strip is that first, it looks like it was drawn by Willy Murphy, and secondly it sounds like something Willie would be saying if he were still alive (he died in the 70's of pneumonia). This artist has apparently channeled the spirit of Willie Murphy!

[Damocles]

Eek! Your tag line makes me dizzy...

The only reason this guy will not lose his job, get tarred and feathered and then run out of town on a rail is because he takes WAY TOO LONG to make his point. Liberals don't have that kind of attention span. They will stop reading after the second frame.

I hate to say it, but this guy's artistic talent sucks even more than Ted Ralls.

Appeasniks....LOL

Thanks for posting this.

[skeeter]

Thanks for the link, Martin.

Those of us actually living in the Bay Area can appreciate the progress stuff like this represents. Lets hope it catches on.

"Appeaseniks" -- yeah, I liked that one, too. <|:)~

[Britton J Wingfield]

If you like that, you might like cartoons by Pete Bagge. Thanks, I like this one :)

[CounterCounterCulture]

"Appeaseniks", not "peaceniks"

Gotta remember that one

Maybe I'll make it my new tagline...

[MadIvan]

Wow, bloody hell. How does this fellow survive in SF?

Regards, Ivan

[socal_parrot]

Dead on. So many of these dweebs are in it to be cool, party and get laid.

[Tigercap]

I love it! Story of my life.
